A Guide to Fall Wedding Flowers
But lately, plenty of brides have come to see the charms of a September or October wedding, with all its New England splendor.
After all, the colors are rich and the scents and spices are vibrant. Best of all? You can buy dramatic fall decorations cheaply at any one of a hundred farmers markets along the road. Perhaps for all these reasons, autumn is now one of the year's most popular times to tie the knot.
With all this enthusiasm comes some beautiful trends in bouquets.
First, we can probably safely say that the queen of the fall bouquet is the majestic mini calla lily, which combines pure elegance with an incredible range of colors to choose from. And it's especially strong in the burnt orange and flame hues that autumn brides crave in their flowers.
Hydrangea is another fall classic that looks great anywhere from swanky nighttime ballrooms to looming barns. Available in an incredible range of shades, hydrangea can also be easily "tipped" with an aerosol by a florist to deepen or control the shade. Another plus: hydrangeas are much cheaper than callas!
The rose in its deeper, more burgundy hues combines all that's classic romance with the special gravity we associate with autumn. Roses in coral shades, too, bring a special, unexpected grace note to the fall bouquet.
Finally, autumn offers an opportunity to experiment with creative and woodsy bouquet choices, including seed pods, hypericum berries, ryegrass and bittersweet vines. Some of the most charming (if unconventional) bouquets and boutonnières use copper wire to gorgeous effect.

This is for Lis-
Yes, i agree with you that any fall color would look great because it is black drfess, and using fall colors like deep red, Deep orange and yellow will also brigten them up.. Just a thought… It seems to be working out good for me, and im using Brown…
May 25th, 2008 at 11:12 pm
Hey there!
I am getting married in Sept. & My Maids are wearing black. Does anyone have any suggestions on flowers? I was thinking that anything fall related will coordinate…Do I stand corrected?

Hope this helps some of you the flowers used are mainly sunflowers.. The wedding was in sept. and as you can see the dresses are colorful as well.
If you would like to see more sunflower pictures I have many. Good luck

HI Sarah, there are lots of routes you can go! Just a few:
crisp red and white … this is very elegant, pretty formal look. Lots of white: e.g. white redding gown with crimson sash, white linens with red chair sashes, red and white roses, maybe some centerpieces like white votive candles in fishbowls filled with deep red cranberries. Add some silver and you have a royal, striking look. See the top Winter part of this article for a red/white look that would work just as well for fall.
Or, there’s the rustic/new england fall type of look with lots of chocolate brown, creams, bronze, touches of orange or yellow. You can play with red by adding deep burgundies to the palette. Then add some rustic decorations like birch bark candles or votive holders, small gourds, faux woodgrain menus, curly willow centerpieces, silk autumn leaves, bird nests, acorn boutonnieres, that sort of thing. This type gives you a lot of leeway with colors because almost everything looks good with chocolate brown, including your red.
HTH!

April 29th, 2008 at 3:35 pm
Hello all, I am a bridesmaid in a wedding for november. The bride has chosen watermelon pink wedding gowns and bright pink gerber daisies. I am not very fond of the color combination. She had originally chosen chocolate brown gowns for the pink flowers. this would have been beautiful, especially for the fall. should I say something before I buy this pink dress! THanks for the input!

Hi Mollie!
I see that gorgeous color and I think of the peacock hues that are winding through events right now, partly due to the east Asian influence in weddings, partly due to that mysterious love of purples and smoky colors from fashion collections last fall.
Take a look at this peacock mood board and see if it doesn’t give you some ideas at:
www.wedsmack.com/2007/06/peacock-blue-mood-board.html
In my mind that color in your gowns looks magnificent with combinations like red and gold, copper and amethyst, teal green and aqua. Great colors for fall, too — very regal. Take a look and see what you think! For flowers I see some sultry combination of orchids (green and creamy white) punctuated with dark fiddlehead ferns.
March 31st, 2008 at 11:00 am
This is for mollie: I think that a could accent color might be like a brownish color… Just a thought..
March 31st, 2008 at 2:09 am
hi, this is getting repetetive on the board but im getting married october of this year. I NEED SOME MAJOR HELP WITH COLORS! it will be a church wedding (still looking for one) but i picked out that color in the picture for my bridesmaids and the overall color for the wedding..i need help for accent colors besides ivory! i was going to pick a black sash for them to wear but definitely changed my mind. it is such a dark teal…i have never seen it anywhere else..
March 27th, 2008 at 2:57 pm
To the Nov 1st Wedding person.. I think your flowers should be mangos, and yellows etc.. but your bms should have an ivory as well as the groomsmen, because of the choc. brown and the champaign. You could have your groom in an orangy boutenierre tho too! I think the oranges would really brighten it up, and give it that special, fall, splash of colour!
March 26th, 2008 at 4:06 pm
November Wedding-
I and my Fiancee are getting married in October and our colors are Truffle (brown) and Ivory.. so similar to yours. As for my flowers i am using peach roses and White gerber Dasies for me, but my girl are using fall shades of gerber dasies..Deep red, Orange and peach.. Just a suggestion, but i would go with peaches and oranges and a deeper red, - it really does look nice with the brown…

I’m getting married Sept. 08. I’m just starting to plan our wedding. My favorite color is yellow and the typical fall colors, but I don’t want it to look like thanksgiving. I’m trying to decide between a real brillant red w/ brown or yellow and brown.
Suggestions?
March 10th, 2008 at 4:58 pm
Melissa,
Thats the first time i heard of some one using black for fall.. but a nice accent color would be like a burgundy color.. as for even like flowers because there is a nice shade of gerber daisy that color.. My girls are using peah and orange gerber daisies with the brown and the burgundy with the black would be nice..
Check out this picture it might help? Let me know hope i could help

Hello! I am getting married mid-September and am still trying to decide on colors. It technically is not fall yet, and still summer like weather here in the midwest, so I don’t want to go with orange and brown, but am thinking maybe a marine blue or deep purple/grape? Any suggestions on what flowers to do? I am not the best at this! I was thinking maybe a cream color to go with the blue or purple?
February 5th, 2008 at 4:47 am

I am getting married 10/11/08. My maid of honor is wearing wine, my bridesmaids are wearing chocolate and my jr. brides are wearing sage.
Any ideas of flowers that I can use and if do can you send a picture? I am trying to keep a hue of deep rich fall colors. Thanks, Ashley
January 25th, 2008 at 12:43 am
Holley, I’m no expert, but you’ll have to make do with me until one comes along
In that bouquet I see Leucadendron (dark burgundy), pincushion proteas (coral), flame mini-calla lilies, orange roses (”Circus”?), red tipped hypericum berries, a few twigs, and what looks to me like Bells of Ireland. There’s another orange flower in there, but not sure what it is … maybe someone knows …
hope that helps!

I am planning my brother’s wedding. They’ve choosen sapphire blue and chocolate brown with a possible light blue accent color. They’ve really left it up to me. Any suggestions of flowers or has anyone been to a fall wedding with these colors??
January 20th, 2008 at 11:07 pm
Can you tell me what all flowers are in this?
January 18th, 2008 at 4:50 am
Heather, check out winter wedding flowers … a modern look for that time of year is a dense hand-tied bouquet of white roses punctuated with dark burgundy or ‘black magic’ roses, which I think looks gorgeous.
Of course you can also use do this high-contrast look with casablanca lilies, tulips, mini-callas for starters … lots of options.

I love the bouquet you have with the bride above. I am getting married in October 09. Can you give me any ideas for pew bouquets and for center pieces for the reception? I am having a black and white wedding but want my flowers to be the focal point being arranged in fall colors.
December 18th, 2007 at 7:15 pm
Hi Kelsie, that awesome-looking flower is Leucadendron. You can see it on the winter wedding flowers page, here.

Hi I am getting married October 18, 2008. I am too trying to create a fall themed wedding. So far I have decided to print my own invitations that have fall colors leaves with the information printed on vellum paper with a gold ribbon to tie the two pieces together. Actually I am going dress shopping today. I am so excited. I want red roses and mango calla lilies for my bouquet. For my centerpieces very simply, candles and silk rose petals in fall colors and silk leaves. My colors are red, shimmering ivory, however i would like to incorporate a brown if i could, I was thinking of the tablecloths but i am afraid it wont look right. Any suggestions of what color linens I should use. I done want use too much red.

Hi all you girls!
I’ve just got engaged and it’s very exiciting to read all of your messages - congratulations to all of us!!
We’re getting married next October 8th on a tiny island off the coast of north devon. We’re going for a rustic/romantic theme with autumn cornicopia basket bouquets. I’m having a white taffata dress in the style of romantic heroine with fawn coloured bridesmaid dresses. Have no idea about anything else yet, but I’m sorted!!
September 30th, 2007 at 10:35 pm
Hi Gail:
I think mums are totally doable and your daughter’s flowers will be gorgeous. Here are a few pics of mums in bouquets. Mini-mums are probably what you see most today, especially the “Kermit” button mums, the small, dense and bright flowers that show up in a lot of contemporary style bouquets (attached). These aren’t the kind you normally find at the farmer’s market, though.
Garden mums are maybe not as common in bouquets, but just as lovely. As you know, they can vary a lot in color and how they look. Some are more gerber daisy/wildflower looking and some look more finished, like dahlias. I attached a pic of some mums in bouquets with hypericum berries, lilies, sweetheart roses and gerbers. They have a country/casual feel … I think they’re lovely. Hopefully this helps a bit.
September 29th, 2007 at 9:28 pm
My daughter is planning a Fall wedding in 2009 and her groom and his mother are very fond of Mums and would like them integrated into the florals she picks. I realize there are different kinds of Mums and would like some feedback and is this doable? Thanks for any help. Gailanne
September 27th, 2007 at 8:53 pm
Robyn-
No I have yet to try on a dress but I am going to try to find a cream or champange color!! I have found my center pieces they are like a hurricane glass vase that is brown and sort of see through. Then around them I have a berry/stick wreath. Do you have a Michaels near you at all?? If you do you should look there because I know there stuff is going on sale. Also now would be the best time to look for you center pieces because fall/autumn stuff is going on clearance.
Another thing that we are doing is.. since we dont have a normal flower girl we are having our ring boy carry our rings on this big leaf and our rings sit nicely in the center!!! I know these ideas are not for everyone but who knows :
I look forward to hearing more of your ideas
September 27th, 2007 at 3:10 pm
melissa
Have you thought about using hydrangeas? They are very soft and pretty. I couldnt get the color i wanted but the florist spayed them for me. I was there when she was testing it - so easy to do it yourself. Hydrangeas would be very easy to tie up yourself. Also for the boutonnieres, silk works the best - trying hugging people all day with a flower on your chest.
OR since you are getting married in spring - tulips! You can even buy them at a grocery store and are very beautiful. Here are some pictures to help.
September 27th, 2007 at 3:06 pm
Hey Michelle!
Oooo the leaf idea sounds very cool. Thats great, I would never of thought of that. Also, I saw dresses in a burnt orange colour recently and they look wonderful for fall. I tried to get my man to wear the chocolate brown tux, but according to him he gets one say, and thats the tux.. haha it must be black
haha
I have gotten a lot done too surprisingly. However its more like the location, & church, colours, and apparel. I have yet to try on a white dress. Have you?? But really when it comes to center peices, and those little details- I haven’t a clue. The flowers are what I am most concerned about right now. There are just so many great fall looking flowers to choose from. I will take a look at center peices though, and see if I can find what you are looking for, and also for myself. So I take it candles are most popular then.
September 25th, 2007 at 8:58 pm
Robyn-
Hey I havent decided on my girls dress color yet we are going to look in October. We are going with a chocolate brown tux from Calvin Klein- my guy is really excited about the color. I am thinking like a orange/red color for my girls something like maybe a burnt red or orange. I have gotten so much done already!! I have my center pieces almost done but I am looking for candles for them I am looking for a medium sized uncented candle but all that I have seen is $4 a piece do you have any ideas? Another idea that we are doing which you may like is instread of flower petals my flower girl is a “Leaf Girl” we bought a ton of fake leafs from Michaels ( a craft store) and we are having her drop those!! Well let me know what you think!!

I HAVE AN APRIL 2008 WEDDING AND WE ARE DOING APPLE RED. I WANTED TO DO MY OWN BOUQUETS. DOES ANYONE HAVE ANY IDEAS FOR COLORS? I DON’T WANT TO DO ALL ROSES. NOT A FAN.HELP!
September 25th, 2007 at 3:20 pm
Hey Lisa,
Sorry I didn’t see your tip before. I think the champaign colour would look georgous! I think for the flowers, I might go a dark coral instead now, with ivory roses as well. I have yet to look at any colours and flowers together though, other then the internet. Thanks for all your suggestions
Michelle- Thats awesome that we have the exact same wedding date! What colour have you decided for the girls dresses. I am definitely going with the chocolate brown, satin. I have also seen pictures recently of the black tux with the chocolate brown vests for the guys, and it looks GREAT! I went to a bridal showcase last weekend, and they had it on display. It looks very modern, and sophisticated. You could however, if leaning that way as well, go with a lighter brown (champaigne, caramel, or expresso for the vests) looks very nice as well. Another option for flowers could be some type of lily- long stemmed looks for good. Well give me some of your ideas for what you want, and we could swop, and mix ideas. CONGRATS

I am having a wedding October of 2008. Does anyone have any suggestions?
Robyn —
Hey my wedding date is the same as yours!! Maybe we could swap some ideas!!
September 16th, 2007 at 6:06 pm
Brandy,
I am getting married October13, 2007 (coming up quickly!) We come from a line of many different religions, so to honor everyone, we basically wrote our own ceremony and it includes a handfasting, broom jumping and a Christian reading. My advise would be to look through Native American ceremonies and just incorporate your favorite into your ceremony.
Also, my girls’ dresses are dark brown, I did my juniors in a “latte” color and did the guys vests the same lighter brown … I coordinated and didn’t match exactly. The more I get into this process the more I have learned there is no “right or wrong”, it is your wedding and you should have it the way you want it!
Good luck all!
September 12th, 2007 at 10:31 pm
Hey girls!! Congrats to you all!!!!
I am having an October fall wedding next year and I want it to have a country theme..Very simple yet unique and countryish…I was thinking mason jars with some sort of flowers in them with tealight candles everywhere..My color is an apple red for my girls..Any suggestions for decorations, centerpeices, favors, etc???
September 6th, 2007 at 11:40 am
Thanks Blake@FavorIdeas! I have never been able to picture it, but yes now that I saw the pics, it looks very good. I will be going with that for sure now. Thanks again
September 5th, 2007 at 8:21 pm
Robyn, see this post on brown vests & black tuxes and see what you think. Personally, I think they look great!

If you are going to do blue and silver flowers you might want to think of using Bella Donna which is blue. Comes in light blue and bright blue. Good Luck!
August 30th, 2007 at 8:22 am
Hi Robyn
I’m getting married 10/6/07 and have a fall theme. My girls are wearing chocolate dresses and the guys are wearing a black tux and truffle/champagn vest. They look very nice together. Our flowers will consist of rusty burnt orange and ivory roses along with hypericum berries, curly willow and antique hydrangeas for our flowers. The guys will wear hypericum berries. It looks really great and I’m so excited!
August 29th, 2007 at 3:09 pm
Hi there,
I am having my wedding on October 11th 2008
I was hoping to do dark brown dresses for my girls, but am wondering if the boys have dark brown vests with black tuxes, that might look horrible! Any ideas on that? Also I was hoping to have the flowers a dark coral, or maroon colour- unsure what would look the best. Some suggestions??
Thanks
August 19th, 2007 at 1:02 pm
My wedding is Oct 28, ‘08 my original colors were burg. and choc. brown… my husband to be’s only request has been to change the colors to blue and silver. any ideas about flowers in blue for that time of year?

I am getting married in Nov 2007 with an Irish theme. My dress is a very plain ivory dress the only detail is a green band in the waist my girls are in the same green. I have to watch out for busy style flowers due to my 2 JR’s are wearing Irish Dance Dresses. I wanted to keep with the greens using a lot of Bells of Ireland but what else could I mix with it for this season? We are doing the arangments ourself.
July 17th, 2007 at 7:17 pm
My wedding is in October and I want my bridesmaids to hold long stemmed flowers. My colors are red and champagne. I’m not very creative so any suggestions would be great! I like lilies but I think they are out of season. Any ideas?
June 27th, 2007 at 9:02 am
carlye- I am also having a Fall beach wedding but on the river in Virginia. Fall and Beach seem to be oxymorions in the wedding world. Some things that I have come up with were blue and brown, pine cones, apples, pears because I don’t think that the traditional fall colors will work well with the river background.
As far as dress, I think simple, less beading and no train would go best with a beach theme, regardless of the season. The weather chanel says that it will be between 50-68 in October for VA which is not too cold for most dress styles.
Anyone else have ideas???

I’m also getting married in Sept of ‘07. I have very little time left to decied what I want, however I really don’t want to have the chocolate, orange, peach, or yellow colors in my wedding and I am not good with flower arangements. I do know that I want Red roses and white cala lilies. I haven’t even decieded on my theme color yet.
What do I do?

I am getting married this sept (2007) I pick the bouquet that is right above this comment board and my Florist says it is perfect because sept. isn’t fall or summer. The bouquet has a little bit of both fall and summer colors. the Calla lillies are perfect for an elegant wedding.

Carrie-
Lilies are good for any season. For a fall wedding, I would recomend day lilies and/or stargazer lilies. Day lilies come in an array of colors including orange and shades of red and Stargazer lilies are white with pink and deep reds on the inside and they smell wonderful. Calla lilies also come in an assortment of colors, from white to purple. A particular wonderful color of callas is orange that fades to red on the lip of the flower.

I am getting married in Sept 2008, a traditional fairytale wedding! I would love Lilies in fall-type colours and possibly some orchids and greenery, I am wondering if these are good flowers for this season, or should i be thinking of another type flower?
