What are fall wedding colors?
Think the color of the gorgeous fall leaves and the deeper shades of green and brown that come with the season.
Traditionally fall colors are shades of orange, burgundy, brown but you can still use blues and purples for example to contrast against these typical autumnal tones.
If you find that orange is a little to much, use less and consider mixing in shades such as beige, cream and peach.
Don’t be afraid to mix and match the colors for your fall wedding day – you might be surprised what works the best!
What are fall wedding flowers?
Your fall wedding flowers can be any flowers that you like but if you want to go with traditional flower arrangements then you may want to consider the following: Sunflowers, Roses, Dahlias, Mums, and Asters.
If you want to add more you can also incorporate berries and fruit into the mix. For something bolder you may opt for dramatic sunflowers. However if you want a softer more romantic vibe, consider roses in shades of peach and burgundy. Think deep rich fall colors and pick accordingly.
Color schemes
- Neutral tones – peach, beige and cream
- Darker tones– dark moss, burgundy and plum.
- Mid tones – sage green, dusty rose and light navy.
