Fall wedding colors are about nature so you need to base on Mother Nature when conjuring up your color palette. Try to look at a leaf that has fallen from its tree. You can see a fusion of buttery gold, yellow-green and burnt orange or a mixture of fiery red and dark brown. Therefore as a tenet, colors that are found in nature can be combined and you can choose from any of its blend for the color scheme of your wedding.
Fall has always been the most widely held time for planning a wedding. You cannot deny that the striking natural foliage and the temperate weather are the best combination nature can offer for a great wedding. Fall is the best time to get the knot tied if you want to capture the ambiance of an elegant but intimate and warm wedding. Besides, this is the time when most family members come home so more cherished people are around to join you on your special day.
Fall wedding colors popularly chosen by most brides include cream, rich browns, eggplant purple, cobalt blue or terra cotta. Summer and spring are the most excellent time for having flowers but then fall is not left behind. Richly colored flowers are for the picking such as mums, freesias, carnations, and roses with deep red colors and can be used as centerpieces or for the bride’s bouquet. But among the different fall wedding colors available, the color orange is the most popular. The color is so fresh and energetic – a perfect representation of the young couple starting a new life. Besides, the orange color is quite flexible and can be paired with several other colors such as lilac, burgundy, silver, green, purple, turquoise, aqua, gold, chocolate brown or sky blue.
Most people think that fall wedding colors include only red, rust, brown and orange – this is not so! Green, purple, blue and yellow are found in nature during fall thus can also be incorporated in your color choices. If you want to be dramatic, then why not try choosing one color and play with its different shades. Platinum gray, pale silver and charcoal can make a sophisticated statement.
Just remember one thing when you choose your fall wedding colors. Make sure to limit the choices to three colors so that it won’t look disorganized and muddled. Ensure also that the color themes and decorations of your wedding venue and reception are the same or coordinated. There might be several color options for a fall wedding but you need them match too.
