Planning a wedding this coming fall? Fall is one of the best seasons for weddings because it is neither too hot nor too cold. It's a perfect time to get together with family, be inspired by tradition and enjoy a cozy backyard or smaller, more intimate gathering. No matter how you plan your wedding, be sure to personalize it.
Themes
Weddings are best remembered for their uniqueness. Start out by picking a theme for your wedding. Next step is to personalize it. You and your fiancé might share a common interest or a hobby which you can integrate into your wedding theme. With a fall wedding, you can incorporate darker hues for colors or leaf, twig or pinecone motifs. These can be incorporated into everything including the color of the bridesmaids' dresses to the flowers, table linens, invitations, and even the wedding cake. Let both of your personalities flow all throughout your wedding. This is your day, so spoil yourself and go with your gut! Invite and explore unique wedding ideas into your theme!
Ceremony & Reception Details
Once you have decided upon a theme, select your wedding attire, flowers and centerpieces to go with it.

Wedding Attire
Just to give you an idea, fall wedding dresses are whimsical, romantic, and inspired by old Hollywood glam. It is all about laces, chiffons, light silks, satins, pearls, crystals and breezy silhouettes. Here's an idea: you can have your bridesmaids wear cocktail dresses instead of floor length gowns, or you can just give them swatches of your color motif and have them buy their own dresses. This will be cost-effective and stress free.

Flowers, bouquets, corsages and buttoners
Try this little twist: add beads, crystals, pearls, or any non-floral ornaments into your bouquets. To cut back on your expenses, use flowers that are near the wedding site or use flowers that are in season like dahlias or chrysanthemums.

Centerpieces
Flowers always make a great centerpiece. Be creative and spice it up with non-floral embellishments like accessories that your guests may enjoy to take home after the wedding. Another way you can utilize a non-floral embellishment for a fall wedding is by adding berries, pinecones, feathers, twigs, fruits and also vegetables to it.
If you want a more subtle approach to your theme, you can also focus on the smaller details. Personalize the details by putting your initials or your motif on your guest book, wedding napkins, place cards and other wedding supplies. Another option is to include a quote or line of poetry you both love. Remember: attention to detail and customization are great ways to make your wedding truly memorable.
