Fall wedding flowers are all about color. Whether you are looking for flower varieties specific to the autumn season or traditional wedding flowers available year-round, the key is your color selection.  Specifically, fall wedding flowers include some combination of bright and muted colors, such as:

These beautiful colors are carried throughout the wedding decorations and are included in bridal bouquets, centerpieces, boutonnieres and corsages.

Fall traditionally marks the end of the harvest and the turning of the season. Warm days and cool evenings are a welcomed break from the heat of the summer and a popular time for weddings. Many brides choose this season for the more predictable weather and breathtaking landscapes of rich and warm colors.

If you are planning for a fall wedding, know that you have a world of flower options available to you. Fall is right behind spring in the number of different flowers in season. In addition, many popular varieties of spring wedding flowers make a second appearance as a result of cooler weather and a return to favorable growing conditions in late summer and early autumn.

In today’s market, flowers can be shipped directly from the flower farms for less than traditional distribution methods making most types of wedding flowers available year-round at no extra cost. Popular seasonal fall wedding flowers include:

	< Roses in various shades, including: • Dark Red • Peach • Salmon (shown left) • Cream • Orange • Yellow
Flame & purple Mini Calla Lilies >	< Hypericum: • Red • Orange • Burgundy • Yellow • Green

Combinations of these flowers make stunning autumn bouquets and arrangements. Wrap stems in textured fabric, velvet sashes, or ribbons to further complement your color selections. These fall wedding flowers can stand alone or be accentuated with fillers and greens for added effect. Some fall filler green suggestions include:

• Green Button Poms • Bear Grass (left) • Solidago (right) • Bupleurum

Using fresh or freeze dried rose petals in fall colors will tie together your bouquets and arrangements throughout the venue. Like roses, freeze-dried and fresh rose petals are available in a variety of autumn colors:

• Dark Red • Peach • Salmon • Orange • Yellow • Red • Cream • Yellow/Red bi-color (shown)

Also, look through bridal magazines and internet pictures to get an understanding of the combinations that appeal to you. Bouquets and arrangements can be simple or complex depending upon the style of your ceremony. Visit your local florist and see first-hand the flowers, their size and texture; and, wherever possible, experiment first.
