Reasons to fall for an autumn wedding

Autumn is a magical time! Golden light, crisp air and delicious seasonal food ensure it’s a wonderful time of the year to say your “I dos”. But, if you still aren’t convinced, we’ve rounded up tones of great reasons to fall for an autumn wedding.

The season’s sunsets

The lighting of autumn is simply stunning and this is especially true when the sun is setting. If you’re a couple on the quest for picture perfect photos with a stunning backdrop, the glowing golden light at sunset is just what you need to take your wedding photography to the next level.

Fantastic food

For foodies, it doesn’t get much better than autumn’s harvest. As well as incredible foods coming in season, the range of flavours offers a sensory overload. Cinnamon, apples, pumpkin, squash and nutmeg are just a few of the highlights, which can be easily incorporated into your dishes, and even your selection of drinks on offer.

Move over pastels

Autumn’s colour palette turns its back on spring and summer’s pretty pastels in favour of darker hues, and we love it. The best thing about the abundance of deep colours, is that they perfectly offset sequins and sparkle. From maroon to burgundy, bring them to life with a little metallic detailing. Check out our array of tablecloths and runners to give your wedding colour scheme another dimension!

Incorporate nature

There’s no denying that autumn is one of the most beautiful seasons, given its changing colour palette. These elements can easily be added to your wedding décor. Dried leaves, greenery or even pumpkins make a welcome and unexpected addition to your décor, proving a cute and classy way to get guests talking.

Everyone is available

Autumn is the perfect time to catch people in-between summer’s shenanigans, and before they jet off on a winter break. Hosting an autumnal wedding means you can expect more guests to attend. Plus, your favourite suppliers are more likely to be available, after the chaos of wedding season.

You know what to expect with the weather

Many brides who wed during the summer do so with hope of sunshine on their day. And most of the time, they’re let down. So if weather isn’t a high priority for you, autumn is perfect. Expect weather to be chillier and dress accordingly, choosing a dress with long sleeves or a luxe faux fur wrap for nipping outdoors.

The PERFECT time for your honeymoon

Embrace the smug feeling of jetting off to warmer climes when everyone else is back at work and braving the cold. Plus, flights and accommodation are generally cheaper at this time of year so it’s the perfect time for some fun in the sun. Win-win!

Romantic finishing touches

There’s something undeniably romantic about autumn, which is what we love about it! Incorporate the hygge trend into your wedding day and treat guests to coziness through your choice of candlelight and soft furnishings for an unexpected twist.
