What color combinations do you recommend for a fall wedding? Flowers?
i think you should go with a light gold for your brides mates dresses and have that deep red calla lilly as your flowers.
Reply:Bright colors are in when it comes to yellow and orange, otherwise deep burgundy/plum/purple colors are popular. I would suggest going with some rich tones in the yellow/orange/red color scheme. You can also add in some gold. Here are some popular flower combinations for a bridal bouquet:





1. hypericum in red, orange and red roses/mini roses, orange/red callas, and other popular fillers with red leaf detailing. How about add some gold to the leafs or add in some small rainbow fall leafs? How about adding some small topaz gems. Check out www.bouquetjewels.com


2. Golden and orange tones of roses only in varrying sizes


3. Red roses only for the simple elegance look. You can have your attendents carry different color bouquets in orange and yellow tones. This cuts costs as well when you stick with one flower type.


4. Burgundy dahlias/chrysanthemums, purple roses, purple/plum hydrangea, light green cymbidium orchids, light dreen dendrobium orchids, with a tough of other complimenting flowers.





To try something unusual/different here are some suggestions:





1. Line the outside of your bouquet in fall leafs. A good florist can make this look great.


2. Add some gold tipping to some greens or flowers.


3. Add some gems


4. Add orchids. They are special, unique, and come in many colors.


5. Add some small pumpkins or fall grass or even line your bouquet in hay? That would be very unusual.


6. Add a ring of berries around your bouquet or hypericum in fall colors.


7. Add a special piece of jewelry to your bouquet.


8. Go with bright colors. The colors will cheer up your day. Orange is the color of happiness.

Reply:Shyte brown and p1ss orange.
Reply:any fall colors. Also you could try and use a fall color, like brown with a non-traditional fall color like ice blue to pink. its all what YOU want
Reply:My friend's daughter got married in October and had a dark red color...and for favors had little leaf cookie cutters with a tag on them that said "Cut out for each other"...and they put leaves on the tables to jazz them up...
Reply:It depends on what part of the fall you are planning this wedding. Burnt orange, yellow and auburn red would be pretty for early fall. If it is later in fall, dark blue, hunter green and burgundy would be very nice.
Reply:i know it's totally off the wall but if you get married in October how about black and orange for Halloween. you don't have to go all out with costumes or anything like that just incorporate the colors somehow. have fun.
Reply:I think the dresses should be an off-white, maybe going as far as to say goldish. Nothing that too strongly resembles autumn. If you are having an outdoors wedding, or will be located where you will be surrounded by nature's autumn colors, I think you should try to stand out a little, rather than run the risk of everything bleding together.





as for the decorations, table placements and the such... you could do more of a pure autumn theme there, just don't go overboard. these are very strong, powerful colors, and should be used in moderation.
Reply:Reds, deep oranges and yellows, rich browns, and golds. Harvest colours.





Autumn


Autumn themed weddings are opportunities to bring splashes of brilliant color into the mix. Look to deep oranges, rich browns and bold reds when choosing bridal party attire and decorations. Accent your bridesmaids' gowns with colorful shawls to ward off the evening chill. For the bride's gown, consider a fabulous gold gown or a lustrous ivory dress with gold accents. Choose locations with dark woods and stonework.


For centerpieces, consider baskets filled with colorful gourds and dried corn or, if the season allows, fishbowls filled with gorgeous turned leaves. Warm your guests with hot soup, chicken or turkey, and steaming mashed potatoes or squash. Pumpkins, gourds, haystacks and autumn leaves make wonderful motifs for invitations. For favors, wrap packets of pumpkin seeds in swatches of vibrant orange cloth.





Flowers...


Use those associated with fall. Use rich colouring. Use some autumn harvest as decorations, too. Maybe some coloured leaves, mini pumpkins, decorative gourds. Use a deep red/burgandy for a table cloth, with gold or burnt orange colour napkins, etc., especially if they have a line or decoration on them that has the burgandy colour. Do a fall or thanksgiving themed celebration dinner; such as turkey, cranberry sauce, mashed potato, aything you want, just things that stand out as an autumn food.


Congrats on the wedding!
Reply:burnt orange, it will be beautifull
Reply:i know this seems a lil off the wall.. but my sister is going with pink pearl and pearl white..
Reply:Cinnamon, It is a beautiful color. And as a theme you could use leaves then put the quote "falling in love" on any type of paper announcements.
Reply:I would say a golden yellow, red or a real orange..... basically any colour that jumps into your head when you think of fall.
Reply:My friend got married last fall and she chose two beatiful colors...Like a burnt orange and a coral pink...it was one of the most beautiful weddings I've ever seen!
