5 Best Fall Wedding Ideas

No doubts, Summer is commonly considered The Wedding Season! but have you had a look around in these days? I am absolutely in love with the warm colors and intense shades that Nature shows off in this Season; so yes, we can say that a Fall Wedding should be widely revalued by brides to be!

Then if your fiancé has just proposed to you, why not be inspired by the current season! One year is the right time to plan a wedding and there are so many great fall wedding ideas out there that you’ll definitely have fun deciding which on to be inspired by.

So be original and bold! The uncommon way is also the one that can make your event really unique.

Here our selection of wonderful ideas for a Fall Wedding, I’m sure you will fall in love with them instantly! My personal advice? Let yourself be seduced by the location you choose, whether it is a wedding by the lake or sea, in the mountains or in the countryside. Each setting requires details inspired by its distinctive features. Of course in my opinion Nature gives its best where it can be the protagonist, so to make it show its true autumn colors why not to choose the spectacular scenery of mountains, with wide valleys and foliage bright splashes of color all around.

1. Fall Bridal Style

For the bridal gown, the sparkling temperatures of Autumn favor the long sleeves, that I personally think are always refined and elegant; or you could also opt for a lightweight cashmere sweater to put on your fluffy tulle wedding dress, for a cooler delicate look.

Take inspo by the softer tones of pumpkins, from eggshell shade to the most flirty sage green. Sage green wedding color is very pleasing and easy to combine with almost any other color, so it allows us to dare a little bit.

2. Fall Bridal Make-Up

Fall is all about rich tones and warm shades, the twists and turns of the trees foliage and many burnish-red berries.

With this in mind, for your make up you should choose a lipstick able to incorporate the autumn shades, on a bright base for the face with freshly flushed cheeks. For the hair a simple and fresh look just pinned up in a low chignon.

3. Dress code

In a stylish wedding you can’t forget about the bridesmaids dresses; but why not give an indication to all the guests? Fall offers a wide range of beautiful shades, from deep jewel tones to burnt orange and golden leaves. We suggest giving an indication of your favorite color scheme on the invitations. The result will be a harmonious blend as in the most romantic autumn woodland scenery.

Of course this should also influence the groom’s outfit and his groomsmen!

4. Styling and Decorations

Decoration in a Fall wedding is not necessarily about pumpkins!

A warm earth toned color palette with pops of terracotta hues create the perfect pairing for fiery autumn foliage.

Scroll down to see some great suggestions we put together for your autumn wedding table set up. The autumn color palette of rust color combinations starts from hues such as pumpkin and persimmon to light mauve that helps to soft the composition. A touch of gold helps to emphasize the elegance of the table, as well as a hint of blue could add intensity.

5. Pampering your guests

Autumn is the season of homemade cookies, hot chocolate and mulled wine (whose origins date back to ancient Rome!).

Just thinking about the aroma of red wine and spices together or hot chocolate doesn’t already make your mouth water? So why not to welcome your guests with some of the “flavor” of your wedding to still enjoy the fizzy air?

The most delicious idea is to use mulled wine and chocolate for the Wedding Cake too adding yummy poached pears.

There are endless possibilities for combining the charming Fall colors for your wedding, and the two best reasons to choose this season for a wedding in Italy are the weather and magical atmosphere, whether you choose the sea, the mountains or the countryside.

The weather is usually mild and the light is great to take some beautiful golden hour shots, no possible in high Summer!

Here what Katie, one of our brides who chose Autumn for her special day, said: 

 “Having an autumnal wedding is all about bringing a sense of coziness and richness to the big day. Fall wedding colors posed a particular challenge. Orange was an obvious choice. We went for a jewel tone wedding decor softened by pastel colors that play up the mysterious and sultry vibe of the season. From elegant mauve and dusty pink to bold fuchsia and burgundy, we thought that it was the perfect time to add a splash of color into the wedding style. Jewel tones automatically brought a sense of opulence to the decor, but also the look was elevated even more by including metallic golden details such as golden chairs and tableware for added luxury.”
