The seasons have changed from spring to summer, and now the lovely fall has arrived. The greens change to different shades of browns, oranges and golds and the wind starts to pick up sending chills down your spine but not enough to chill your bones. If you live where the heat never seems to die down, like I do in Florida, this time of year is one of the most beautiful times to have a wonderful outdoor wedding, or an even more fantastic indoor wedding if that’s what you desire.
Let’s paint a picture of a beautiful fall festival wedding from invitation to reception.
Maple leaves create a frame for the wedding invitation, a classic ivory stock paper with dark orange writing on it. Laced on the side, closing the invitation is a simple gold colored bow which also holds the RSVP card inside with a small envelope to send it away. As the days creep closer to the wedding date, the weather seems to be getting a bit cooler each day. As the air cools, the sun is still shining enough to make the church windows glow brightly inside the walls.
The date has come, deep within the fall season and the church is all set up for the wedding. The bride’s wishes have been carried out to perfection, making the inner workings of the church look like a famous painting. The candles lit and the lighting dim with the sun still fairly high in the sky outside. The flower girl dressed in a soft pastel yellow dress with a dark, chocolate brown sash around the middle as a nod to the fall season. In her hands, is a butterscotch Flower Girl basket, filled with beautiful rose petals of white, yellow, and red that she sprinkles along a deep gold carpet that eases its way between the aisles of church pews. The youngest of the men in the wedding party soon makes his entrance, the ring bearer, dressed in a nice fitting suit with a cute yellow bow tie, in his hands is a chocolate brown ring pillow with the groom’s and bride’s wedding bands firmly attached to it so they don’t slip away.
The bride enters the gold carpet that is now scattered with rose petals under her shoes, her father (or mother) meeting her at the start of the aisle to walk with her and to give her away. She’s dressed in a beautiful, long sleeves laced down to her wrists while the bodice of her dress has fine ivory floral designs making the dress seem less flat on her body. Her groom waits for her at the altar as she walks up to him, bright and smiling since this fall day has been long awaited by both of them.
Bridesmaids wear beautiful burnt orange dresses, deep golds, and browns – depending on what each one chose from the color scheme the bride gave them. The groomsmen also wear the same color vests with a plain black tie. The groom wears a regular tux with a white vest, though his tie is a dark orange color tucked behind the vest to add a splash of color. With the sun streaming into the painted windows of the church, this looks like it is a scene right out of a movie.
The reception is filled with the same movie like feeling. Instead of the traditional whites, the bride decided gold table clothes with chocolate laced chairs were the best way to go to make the inside of hall more whimsical. On the tables are assorted leaf design candle holders which have a folded piece of paper in front of them designating the seats of the guests. In the front of the hall is a mocha brown fall wedding guestbook for all the guests to sign for the bride and groom. Music is lively, happy, and everyone is able to dance the evening away as the night air grows cooler. Beautiful autumn wedding cake candles are a wedding favor to everyone, though of course they’d probably wish it was as good to eat as it looked!
This wedding was a beautiful fall wedding festival enjoyed by the couple and each of their guests.
