Golden Autumn Weddings

 

Everything glows in the golden light of autumn sunshine. If you’re planning a fall wedding, consider choosing a deep yellow like goldenrod, marigold or mustard as part of your color palette.

One beautiful way to work with a strong, striking shade is to use unusual blossoms while keeping the color scheme very simple. In this wedding, we used an abundance of bright yellow orchids for the bridesmaids’ bouquets, miniature yellow calla lilies for the groomsmen, and for the adorable flower girl, we made a perfectly round bouquet of yellow mums. Each mum held a tiny pearl in its center. For the bride, we stuck to white.

We love how the yellow flowers look against the lavender silk bridesmaid dresses. Deep yellows also pair well with navy, pale to dark grays, and green. Try gold satin shoes paired with nude or blue bridesmaid dresses or glowing, deep yellow candles surrounding white and cream flower arrangements. Look to Indian weddings for inspiration and go bold with other brights like orange, reds and fuchsia. As the weather starts to turn cool, celebrate with some golden rays.
