An Autumn Wedding Theme

When we think of autumnal colours, we automatically choose burnt oranges, reds and browns to match the falling leaves and burnished tones of the harvest. I've gone against the grain for this wedding theme using antique metallic gold and cream with shades of pomegranate, fig and chocolate cosmos. Metallics are huge for autumn and winter weddings as they create a real sense of luxury and warmth and teamed with deep berry tones they evoke a rich and decadent atmosphere.

Don't be afraid to use texture here. Ruffled, layered gowns are very of the moment as are touches of velvet. Feed the senses with woody scented candles and take your decorative inspiration from nature by using fruit as place card holders and floral patterns for your wedding stationery.
