Things you should put into consideration before planning an autumn wedding

Oh my God, I hate flu, I had to force myself to write this post. I contacted flu about three days ago and the outcome is terrible. I have been sneezing and coughing. I can hardly concentrate, I feel weak and my nose is kinda blocked. I have had a lot of tea, seeing a movie to distract me a little and make me lively. It feels really bad.

Anyways, even tho I don't like the cold that comes along with autumn and how our body tries to adjust but the beautiful yellow leaves that shine and brighten the streets make it so beautiful, interesting, and picture-worthy. Summer weddings are perfect but also autumn weddings can be a fairy tale. If you are looking to do an autumn wedding, there are things you should put into consideration before planning a fall wedding.

Prepare properly for the cold weather

Honestly, the cold weather can be discouraging and you don’t want your guests shivering and attending without a coat or umbrella. Send written notes alongside your wedding invitation to remind your guests to dress warm, since there will be outdoor activities. If you have some options for outdoor seating, ensure you have provided blankets to ensure guests can fully enjoy your surroundings and special day with you.

Location

Autumn is a season that brings along the countryside or rural vibe, which makes it even more astonishing. When picking your wedding location for an autumn wedding, think woodland, forest, country, outdoor restaurants, riverside with massive leaf pour, and barn wedding locations. Autumn trees and leaves make the perfect backdrop for your wedding photographs. 

Decoration

Be extra with the decorations, this is what gives your wedding the pop and feel that makes everyone feel cozy and have the love in the air feel.

Include specific natural elements like leaves, flowers, twigs, fruits like berries, sweet apples, and mini tree branches that can be planted around the location. These decorations cost less and bring alongside the autumn theme with the perfect color for fall which is that yellow, green, and rusty brown leaf mix.

Lighting is a tool that makes a venue come to life in its fullest form making every decor more prominent and noticeable. Use lightings like candles, clear Christmas lights, red and yellow bulbs to accentuate your wedding to have a fairy tale lighting. 

The flowers should have the custom fall colors. Think autumn leaves, pinecones, chestnuts, begonia, bed in paradise, marigold, Tulipa, Lilium, daylily, and red hot poker. The arrangement you pick will more likely be related to the color scheme and style of the autumn wedding you choose.

Leaves are a great decor tool. You can place them on the table to bring along a vibrant and festive feel at the wedding. Add the most known festive touches which are bales and well-curved pumpkins. 

Color scheme

Soft blushes and nudes are more suitable for autumn weddings.

To the bride and groom, remember comfort is key, pick a wedding dress and suit that covers your body because of the cold weather, put fancy fur coats, and royal jackets on. Don't let the cold stop your shine.
