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!
