An Autumn Wedding

Autumn can be a warm and cool time of year to be married. The days are usually still pleasant but the nights can become quite cool, especially when it starts getting closer to Winter. There are many fabulous ideas to help with your wedding day in the Autumn months. Here are a few that you maybe interested in.


       
       


You will find the colours of an Autumn wedding will vary to those preparing a summer, winter or spring wedding and visa versa. As we all know flowers are very seasonal, therefore matching the time of year and flowers will also determine the types of colours that are available. Intern, this can also determine the colour theme of your wedding ceremony, reception and perhaps your bridal wear.

Flower colour ideas: 


               



 
Autumn Flowers suitable for your wedding flowers include:


  • Roses 
  • Calla lilies
  • Gerberas
  • Gloriosa lilies
  • The Oriental, Asiatic and November lilie
  • Gypsophila , better known as ‘Baby’s Breath’
  • Slipper orchids (Paphiopedilum spp.)
  • Carnations 
  • Banksia
  • Leucadendrons 
  • Gum nuts and Berries in all colours, pepper, Privet, ivy berry.

Looking at the photos from Autumn weddings above, the dark richer tones are quite popular. Bouquets, centerpieces, bridesmaid dresses, decorations etc all appear to incorporate the deep oranges, dark reds, purples, maroon, and black. Bouquets and other decorations appear to include more of a nature style with branches and colourful leaves for a touch of difference.

With an Autumn wedding your photographer can capture some great moments, particularly if your wedding theme ties in with the Autumn season and colours mentioned above. The wedding venue can also play a huge part in the type of wedding photography. A setting in the wineries or a garden would look perfect especially when the venue is likely to have a country, rustic like feel to it. The colours of the leaves, trees, flowers and vineyards can create a beautiful backdrop for your photos. Have a look at some gorgeous wedding Autumn photography below for some inspiration:
