Rich Colors Can Make an Eye-Popping Autumn Wedding Bouquet
Fall is a lovely time of year with the cooling temperatures and the lovely color changes of foliage from green to shades of yellow, orange and red. If you are having a wedding in the midst of this color-changing fall season, you should incorporate these rich colors to create a vibrant autumn wedding bouquet.
It makes sense to go with the seasonal flow to match what is occurring right now instead of expending extra effort to create a spring or summery feel when it is anything but. That means going with flowers, greenery and fillers that are abundantly available at the time of your fall wedding. There are plenty of options to choose from for your autumn wedding bouquet to create something truly memorable.
Falling for Reds
Everyone's favorite red rose is popular in wedding bouquets all year round because of its versatility and classic style. However, besides the red rose, there are other beautiful red flowers that could fit the bill for your autumn wedding bouquet such as red gerbera daisies, mums, Asiatic lilies, bird-of-paradise, aster and even canna or carnations.
Sunny Disposition for Yellow Flowers
Yellow or gold colors are perfect for an autumn wedding bouquet as well because they provide a sunny look. They are happy-looking and are the perfect foil to complement other fall colors. Some favorite yellow flowers include crocus, yellow daisies, yellow gerbera daisies, sunflowers, hollyhocks, orchids, calla lilies and even roses.
Orange Hues Prove Golden
Your autumn wedding bouquet could also be eye-catching with orange hints that are reminiscent of peachy tones all the way to rust colored hues. Some of the more popular orange flowers include certain varieties of calla lilies and orchids, gerbera daisies, roses and orange tiger lilies.
The Fillers Make a Difference Too
The fillers used in an autumn wedding bouquet also make a difference in the overall effect of the bouquet presentation. Some creative brides pick soft and supple leaves that have turned colors and string them on invisible wire to create a garland to intertwine in their bouquets. Not quite ripe berries, wheat grass, copper beech branches and even spray painted pinecones or other unusually shaped branches and twigs can make for an unusual, striking autumn wedding bouquet.
Look to nature in the fall seasons for inspiration and you will be surprised just how classy some things will look in an autumn wedding bouquet. You might even find that a little Spanish moss or a pretty Monarch butterfly (fake, of course) can provide a whimsical touch.
