Fall Wedding Colors

If you are having a Fall or Autumn wedding, the colors do not have to be drab and dull. In fact, there are many rich, warm colors that can make your wedding decor really pop. Instead of sticking to the typical reds, greys, and blacks, step it up a notch by adding in fun magenta and dark teal colors. In all actuality, Autumn really does have the greatest selection of colors.

Any warm or rich tones will do for your wedding decor, invitations, and clothing. Mixing warm, lighter hues with richer colors will add the perfect amount of variation. For example, incorporate a vivacious magenta or linden green into the sash of your wedding dress. Or, add more color to you and your bridesmaid’s ensembles through colorful hair wreaths. Beautiful orange roses and leaves, rich red berries, and small white daisies will not only stand out against the backdrop of the decor, but also add that extra Fall color for which you may be looking.

Bridesmaid Dresses

Another way to integrate a rainbow of fall colors is by finding bridesmaid dresses in an assortment of warm hues. Choose complimenting colors. You can find an array of complimentary and split complimentary colors through an online color wheel. Also, many online wedding websites, online decor sites, and official pantone colors.

Autumn Lipstick Colors and Makeup

Add bold lip colors! However, ensure that the lipstick that you choose goes with your skin tone and does not overwhelm the rest of your makeup. If you are creating a bold lip, then your makeup artist will not want to add in bold eye makeup. Add a splash of color to your nails by using deep reds, warm oranges, or even rustic browns!

Fall Wedding Decor

Centerpieces and Decorations

The surrounding decor, from the official ceremony to the reception area are the prime place to show off your decorating skills. Incorporating rustic and antique objects add the perfect touch to any wedding, especially when it is being held during cooler Autumn evenings. Large mason jars make for a perfect centerpiece when used as a vase for fall flowers. Tie a cranberry colored ribbon haphazardly around the rim of the jar for an imperfect, original touch of color.

Blankets and Throws

If it is cooler at night and your reception is being held outside, provide guests with blankets in an assortment of Autumn colors in various styles of plaids, checkerboard, and/or stripes! Not only does it keep the chill away, but is also adds a down to earth touch to your wedding, while providing splashes of color at the same time. Throwing blankets over hay bales adds a rustic, ranch touch to any outdoor wedding. Of course, no Autumn night wedding would be complete without decorative lanterns and hanging lights that add a warm touch to your decor.
