6 Fall Wedding Trends That Make Us All About Autumn (And Matching Must-Haves for Your Own Best Day Ever)

There is so much to love about spring, summer, and of course, winter weddings, but we fall HARD for the ones that happen in the fall. There’s a basic and obvious attraction most couples have to sweater weather nuptials, which includes: the pumpkins (can’t do fall weddings without ‘em #sorrynotsorry), the mulled wine sangria cocktails, bridesmaids in terracotta couture, and take-home cider doughnuts and coffee for the commute home, but looking past those seasonal staples, the fall wedding season is an aesthetic and ‘in the air’ mood that just can’t be matched. We’re under no illusions that a thing such as “autumn magic” exists; so, if you’re getting married between September 22nd and December 21st, count on your guests being utterly spellbound. 

When it comes to captivating colors for fall weddings, you can certainly go with nature-inspired cues - varying degrees of green, Morello cherry-minted marsalas, toasted almond tones, and shades that stick, like cinnamon sticks - but we’re even more blown away by the fall-planned functions that don’t look like hand-dyed hues of the infinity scarves that will be hanging around our necks in a matter of weeks. Trendy cosmetic ‘colours’ like berry, caramel, ginger, and mauve bring great highlights to a moody wedding look, while blood orange, blush, gold, ochre, and ivory set the stage for that foundational finesse the SZN is known for.

Did You Know That You Can Give Your Wedding Signage a Second Life?

Truth be told, sadly not too many of the decor options you’ll use at your wedding will [realistically] be used again… Things that say anything about ‘cocktail hour’ or ‘Mr. & Mrs,’ anything that specifically references your wedding date, unless it’s used solely for sentimental purposes, it’s hard to find a place that makes sense for displaying the memories. And we’re all for reminiscing, because who hasn’t spent a few hours or more a week looking at old wedding photos and remembering that best day ever; but when a wedding is already a huge financial commitment, it’s nice to be able to say that some of the finishing touches for your fete can be used as future furnishings. 

Evergreen wedding signage is one of those things that [if curated strategically] can be versatile enough to show up and show off in a setting somewhere down the line: like your newlywed home! As you start and continue to build your life and legacy together, what better way to start “putting down roots” than putting relics of your relationship up on the walls for your friends and family to see forever? Your wedding date is the stamp that will anchor the ‘when’ in all of your “Smith Family Est” decor, so you can absolutely start early with wedding signage that won’t go stale. In fact, it’ll keep the memory of your wedding day alive and become even more meaningful with events you plan for years to come.

If You Really Want Your Wedding to Glow, Do It With Neon

When it comes to wedding details we love the most, signage rises to the top (quite literally, it can hang). And if you’re a particularly creative couple, you can have so much fun coming up with sayings and puns that will make your guests light up. Starting with your unique hashtag and ending with something sweet and sassy to display over your dessert or late-night bites table, your signs build your vibe - and they can keepsake your vows, too! We’ve seen some of our real wedding couples distilling iconic lyrics from their first dance song, and if that can be done, it’s not hard to imagine phraseology from your “I promise” prose being used as a statement photo marquee for your reception. 

There are a ton of options for your nuptials signage - from wooden signs to wire ones, cotton-cloth backdrops to calligraphed canvases - but in the past year or two, neon, illuminating iterations have become “I Do” favorites. Not only are they pretty and trendy, they’re also pretty versatile. What you can put up in lights at your wedding, can easily be taken down, packed up, and used in your home for years to come. After all, what at-home bar is truly ready to entertain without a #dontgothirsty or #butfirstdrinks sign??!

Wedding Planning Is a Labor of Love, So Treat Yourself This LDW

The last official weekend of the summer is upon us - and it’s usually one of the best times to get out, hang with friends and fam, and a special someone, but we all know that this one is going to be a lot different than years past. Social distancing is hardly LDW friendly; however, since we’re talking “labor,” it’s worth mentioning that brides-to-be (especially 2020 brides) might be okay with keeping things low key this time around. One weekend off from having to field questions about wedding planning ‘in the age of corona’ sounds like a dream come true for brides - and it doesn’t even have to be a weekend off from planning, instead, it can be more of a restful weekend with practical moments that spark joy rather than promote stress.

For these three+ days, we suggest blocking off your calendar and committing to some ‘just the two of us’ time with your fiancé. This has been a summer like no other and there’s probably no one else who understands exactly how you might be feeling than your guy or girl, so take a break from the labor of love that is wedding planning [and life these days, tbh] and treat yourselves. We curated our Style Me Pretty Collection with all the best items for soon-to-be-married sweethearts, and this is definitely the time to enjoy them. #FindSomeRoomtoBetheBrideandGroom. 

Now, we’re not going to itinerize your whole LDW, because we said low key - and we meant it - but, here’s how we imagine the perfect weekend looking for a pair that’s been working overtime on their wedding… Feel free to tweak and tailor to meet your needs!
