Lovely Fall Wedding Bouquets



Autumn is a season that is full of beautiful flowers and rich colors. Take advantage of the best the season has to offer when you are designing the bouquets for your wedding ceremony. These are some lovely ideas for fall wedding bouquets.

Dahlias are a fantastic choice for a fall bouquet. They come in a terrific array of hues to complement any wedding color scheme. An arrangement of deep aubergine dahlias with white tips is a fabulous pairing with chocolate brown bridesmaid dresses and plum crystal bridesmaid jewelry. A rich orange bouquet with rust colored hypericum berries is a great choice for a fall foliage color theme. Dahlias even come in soft pastels like yellows, pinks, and peaches, which look lovely in combination for a bridal bouquet. If you want something really spectacular, create a bouquet around one enormous dinner plate dahlia ringed with green leaves.
Roses are popular for weddings in any season. To give this classic bridal bouquet an autumnal flair, choose deeper hues like terra cotta, burgundy, and plum. It would be very pretty to mix the colors in the bridesmaids' bouquets and for the bride to carry an arrangement with just one of the colors. Rose bouquets are versatile, because you can make them more or less formal with the addition of accent elements. Frame a dark purple rose nosegay with peacock feathers to create a dramatic look for a formal fall wedding. Or mix terra cotta roses with hypericum berries, acorns, and yellow mums for a rustic autumn bouquet. Sprinkle crystals into a burgundy rose arrangement for something more dressy. There are endless possibilities.

Orchids are a fabulous choice for a more formal fall bouquet because they come in some amazing autumnal hues. They work very well for waterfall bouquets, which cascade gently down and allow the flowers to move naturally. Orchids are also lovely in loose nosegay arrangements. Burnt orange orchids with willow branches would be a charming floral arrangement for an outdoor wedding. Mokara orchids are available in wonderful shades of orange and deep golden yellow. Spotted Phalaenopsis Orchids also grow in warm orangey tones. The wonderful thing about many of the orchid varieties is that they have several hues within a single blossom, lending a gorgeous textural effect to your fall bouquets.
