Cozy jumpers, colourful leaves and fireworks – the autumn is a beautiful time of year, which makes it a fantastic season for a wedding! If you want to create a classic, warm autumn wedding theme, here are our top tips and buys to inspire you…
Autumn is all about colour – the warm reds, russets and yellows of the changing leaves, the bright orange of pumpkins and the deep browns of conkers all make for a beautiful warm wedding theme. Add a touch of metallic bronze or gold, and you have yourself one chic colour scheme!
Start creating your autumn theme with your wedding stationery – after all, that’s what your guests will see first! It’s easy to integrate autumn into your stationery. Just choose designs with motifs like leaves, trees, apples and pinecones for a classic woodland feel. If you want something a little more subtle, choose natural materials and details like brown Kraft paper, twine and hessian for a rustic look.
When it comes to dressing your bridesmaids, you have loads of beautiful options! Choose dresses in rich, warm colours like blackberry purple, deep red or chocolate brown. If you’d prefer to dress your girls in lighter colours, then neutral shades like cream or gold look stunning with an autumnal theme. If you’re getting married in mid- to late autumn, we’d recommend choosing dresses in heavier materials to stop your girls from catching a chill.

Beautiful autumnal wedding flowers are easy to create! Choose classic blooms like roses, gerberas and dahlias in reds, oranges and yellows, and complement with woodland touches like acorns and oak leaves. We also love seeing fruit and berries in autumn wedding bouquets – try blackberries, rosehips or crab apples for a rustic twist.
