September 21, 2018 2 min read

Isn’t fall the perfect time to get married? The colorful foliage offers a picture perfect backdrop. The weather is neither too hot nor too cold, and everyone is already in a festive mood to celebrate. If you're getting married in fall, be sure to capture the beautiful colors of the season in your photos! 

We think fall weddings are gorgeous and can be so romantic! We've rounded up our top five fall wedding must-haves to help you organize and plan a perfect fall wedding.

1. Autumn Inspired Bouquets

Wedding bouquets are often made of perennials like carnation, lilies, and roses. For your fall wedding, you can go for autumn-exclusive variety of flowers like Dahlia, Celosia, and Purple Alstroemeria. Orange can be the primary color, or another popular color is a rich red. Yellow and purple are great accent colors. You can also take a totally opposite approach and add hints of orange to an otherwise rosy bunch.

Candles set the tone for a romantic mood. Incorporate a lot of candles in various heights to set the tone for your reception.

3. Apple Cider Bar

There is nothing that symbolizes fall more strongly than apple cider. Put a spin on the traditional cocktail bar, and host an apple cider bar that also serves hot chocolate to all your guests. Your guests will love it, we promise!

4. Pies for Desert

Take your dessert bar up a notch and display pies instead of candy and cupcakes. Include a variety of pies like pumpkin pie, apple pie, and pecan pie. Take your pie bar a step further, and create some fun and interesting recipes with fall themed names.

5. Keep Em' Warm

Fall is the perfect time for an outdoor wedding. Since the evening will be a bit cooler, you can keep your guests warm and happy with fire pits. Add another touch of warmth with snuggly throws and blankets for guests as well.
