Bring your enchanting autumn gathering to life with these five ideas for a fall wedding in Orlando.

 

Key Takeaways

 

1. Dip into Fall’s Dreamy Color Palette

Choosing the right array of colors for your wedding can feel overwhelming, but having somewhere to start makes the job a little easier.

For your autumn wedding, play with the wide range of colors the season has to offer.

Fall is best known for its hues of red, orange, and yellow, but you can also experiment with burgundy, purple, and sage green.

Most of these colors come in a variety of shades.

Ask yourself, what kind of vibe do you want your fall wedding to have? Dark and formal or bright and vivid? Choose colors that accurately pull off your desired look and feel of your special day.

 

2. Cozy Up to the Fall Decor

Your home isn’t the only thing to deck out in fall decor when autumn rolls around. How you decorate plays a large role in bringing your dream wedding theme to life.

Once you’ve selected your wedding colors, think about the decorative pieces you want to incorporate into your decor.

Pumpkins, leaves, dried florals, and mason jars are all staples for a beautiful autumn aesthetic, as are other rustic touches like branches, pinecones, and lanterns.

If your wedding colors are on the darker side, add a dash of vibrance with an assortment of decorative pumpkins and leafy garlands for color and personality.

On the contrary, a wedding with rich, earthy colors could benefit from the soft, subtle touch of pampas grass and white roses.

Incorporating the natural, outdoorsy aura of fall into your wedding decor is the perfect way to incorporate the harvest season into your big day.

 

3. Have an Outdoor Fall Wedding

Take advantage of the season and have an outdoor, fall-themed wedding ceremony.

Fall in Florida is unmatched. Temperatures are lower, but not cold — or too hot. It’s just right.

Thanks to Orlando’s warmer temperatures, greenery lasts slightly longer throughout the year. This is perfect for those who want their fall colors to vibrantly stand out against their setting or want to embrace an environment full of tropical greenery for contrast.

Outdoor weddings also allow you to get more creative with your decor.

For example, if you favor the rustic side of a fall wedding theme, woodsy decorative pieces like barrels better complement a natural landscape than in an indoor setting.

Looking for the perfect venue with indoor and outdoor spaces? Our four Rosen Wedding properties boast eye-catching outdoor scenes and flexible indoor accommodations for however you want your wedding to be.

 

4. Pick the Right Fall Foliage

As the seasons change, so do the flowers in bloom. Channel true fall energy by choosing the right assortment of in-season flowers for your wedding.

Sunflowers are often the first to come to mind when imagining fall. Their vibrant golden hue perfectly complements the warm browns and oranges of the season while adding a cheerful aesthetic.

You can also incorporate colorful flowers like dahlias, zinnias, peach garden roses, and cosmos for pops of color and texture.

Mix greenery into your floral decor with ivy or eucalyptus and fill out your bouquets with delicate baby’s breath or aster.

 

5. Aim for Fall-themed Fashion

Once you’ve taken the necessary steps to ensure your wedding exudes fall vibes, it’s time to do the same for yourself and the wedding party!

For the bride, fall is the perfect season to explore wedding dresses with autumnal details like long sleeves. Opt for a lacey look to preserve the elegant feel of the season while also keeping cool in the outdoor temperatures.

Climates with cooler fall temps allow for more fashion flexibility. If you’re planning a fall wedding in Orlando, keep in mind the highs are typically still in the low 80s in October and mid 70s in November.

For the groom, step away from the standard black tuxedo and try a bolder look. Brown, burgundy, and emerald green make beautiful autumnal options. Plaids and patterns are always fun to play with, too.

When it comes to your bridal party, don’t be afraid to play with color. Decide whether you want everyone in the same shade or mix it up with a multicolor palette. Both options are beautiful yet offer distinctly different looks.

Don’t shy away from asking your guests to arrive on theme as well. In addition to a formal dress code, you can include color requests on your wedding invitations.

List a range of colors for your guests to choose from so everyone arrives in a beautiful array that blends seamlessly with your wedding theme.
