5 Ideas For An Unforgettable Fall Wedding

5 Ideas For An Unforgettable Fall Wedding

As the leaves start to change color and the air gets crisp, there's no doubt that fall is one of the most popular times of year to get married. If you're in the midst of planning your own autumnal nuptials, here are a few ideas to help make your big day unforgettable.

1. Have a Scenic Outdoor Ceremony

One of the best parts about getting married in the fall is that you can take advantage of the beautiful scenery. From fiery red leaves to towering mountains blanketed in mist, there are so many ways to incorporate the natural surroundings into your ceremony. If you're lucky enough to have a venue with scenic views, make sure to take advantage of it! Otherwise, consider holding your ceremony at a nearby park or even in your own backyard.

2. Embrace Cozy Comfort Food

Fall is all about comfort food, so why not incorporate some of your favorite dishes into your reception menu? comforting classics like roasted chicken, macaroni and cheese, and pumpkin pie are sure to please guests of all ages. And don't forget about the drinks! A seasonal cocktail like a pumpkin spice martini or apple cider Moscow mule is the perfect way to warm up on a chilly autumn evening.

3. Give Guests Favors They Can Actually Use

When it comes to wedding favors, it's important to think outside the box. Sure, things like picture frames and keychains are nice, but let's be honest—they usually end up collecting dust on a shelf somewhere. Instead, give your guests something they'll actually use and appreciate. Small bottles of local maple syrup or honey are perfect for couples who love to cook, while bags of locally-roasted coffee beans or tea leaves make for a lovely morning-after pick-me-up. For something truly unique, consider giving guests a small potted plant that they can take home and care for long after the wedding is over.

4. Incorporate rich, Autumnal colors

When most people think of fall weddings, they picture rich jewel tones like Burgundy and plum. But there's no rule that says you have to stick to traditional colors! With so many gorgeous shades of red, orange, and yellow foliage to choose from, why not let nature be your inspiration? Incorporating colorful fall leaves into your décor is an easy and elegant way to bring the outdoors inside—just make sure to raiding Grandma's prize-winning chrysanthemums beforehand!

5. Capture The Moment with Fun Seasonal Photo Props

Autumn is such a picturesque time of year, so make sure to take plenty of photos! To make things even more fun (and festive), provide guests with some fun photo props like oversized glasses filled with fall leaves or signboards with clever sayings like "thankful" and "this way to cider." Not only will these props add some levity to your photos, but they'll also double as unique guestbook alternatives that you can cherish for years to come.

Planning a fall wedding? These five ideas are guaranteed to give you an unforgettable day that you and your guests will love!
