September and October are fast becoming the months to plan the perfect wedding and get beautiful colored fall wedding flowers. The colorful hues of fresh autumn blooms set the mood to a happy and cheerful married life and couples are intent on starting their lives together right that way.

Seasonal Flowers

Chrysanthemums or “mums” are still one of the most popular wedding flowers for this season as they come in a wide variety of colors and sizes. Although most florists use these are fillers on more sophisticated bouquets, their charm and vibrancy is unmistakable. Hydrangeas are still in bloom during the fall season and usually come in either pink or blue. Dahlias are seldom absent from fall weddings as they have all the right autumn colors such as reds, oranges and yellows.

Arranging by Colors

Fall colors are always lively and passionate. While winter weddings are subdued, autumn events are usually screaming in boldness and class.

Reds

Red is a powerful and stimulating color that evokes feelings of hunger, passion and taste. Bright reds are commonly used to attract attention or narrow one’s sight into a focal point, so including blooms such as redsox mini calla, deep red rose, gloriosa lily, or red daisies will definitely raise some heart rates up.

Yellow & Orange

The color of hope – yellow stirs feelings of pure sunshine and brightness. Orange shares both red and yellow characteristics and is the most vibrant among the colors. To brighten up your wedding pick flowers such as sunrise mini calla, Chopin and orange unique rose.

Purple

Purple used to be developed only for royalties so if you want to feel very Lady Di-ish on your special day, opt for these hues which range from burgundy or reddish purple to more subdued tones such as bluish purples. Get garnet glows, Picasso mini calla, agapanthus blossom, grape hyacinth or magenta peony.

Green

Greens are always great for weddings as they symbolize abundance, health and calm. Mostly used as an accent to an already colorful bouquet, a splash of green is never out-of-place in earthy autumn colors such as red, oranges, yellows and golds. Green hypercum berries, green button mums, green poppy pods, and chartreuse roses are best picks.

White

Weddings are rarely devoid of white as they evoke tranquility, cleanliness and purity. Although mostly considered bland, when arranged with vibrant colors, they make the hues pop out more. Opt for popular choices such as gardenia, white delphinium, sweet pea, stephanotis, ivory calla, and white peony.

Year Round Suggestions

Roses are always available and some orchids bloom beautifully during fall. We suggest using fruits to accessorize an already interesting bouquet of varying colors as they add texture and depth to the arrangements. Crab apples are very popular in the fall season and they come in red and yellow. Lilies still tops the list as one of the most popular wedding flower in the last decade and thankfully, they are available all year round.

Bewitch your guests with a gallantry of colors and watch them enjoy your day just as much as you do. There are hundreds of flower species to choose from and an array of colors to bask in as far as fall wedding flowers are concerned so do not hesitate to mix the colors up because this is what this season is for: exuberance.
