A Fresh Take on Fall Wedding Color Palettes
It might be the dead of winter but a lot of fall wedding couples are knee deep in their planning stages right now so I thought it would be the perfect time to share some color inspiration for September - November couples.
October is by far my busiest and most popular month of the year (followed closely behind by November and September). It seems that every bride wants those * fall vibes * for her beautiful wedding day and year after year, I see a lot of autumn weddings that look the same.
It’s often really important to brides that their wedding design feel unique, memorable and special. They want what lives on from their day in images to reflect not only their love for their partner but an originality in their overall event design.
If you are one of those brides who knows that your love of all things pumpkin spice, crunchy leaves and crisp apples will lead you to wanting a fall wedding… I encourage you (actually I’m kind of begging you) to seek out a color palette that compliments the season without looking like EVERY OTHER FALL WEDDING.
There are a lot of really incredible, high end color palettes that would look absolutely stunning in the fall that do not involve mauve, burgundy, merlot, deep red, plum, garnet, maroon, ruby or cranberry. Because guess what… that’s what everyone else is doing.
If you need some color inspiration for your fall wedding (that doesn’t involve any shade of the well-overdone red), I hope you’ll find something you love below!

THINK: Grey bridesmaids dresses and gentlemen’s suits, emerald bow ties, eucalyptus and other greenery bouquets, copper decor accents, emerald invitation suite design with copper foil, copper cake accents and eucalyptus reception table garlands
