hmmmm.....originally i wanted to do a morning wedding too, but considered the timeline and have pushed mine to noon.
i'm getting married November 1st.
i thought i had a suggestion for you until you said candlelight is out......even though mine is early we will be doing a mixture of candle centerpieces. the ballroom i will have can be dark with no natural lighting so i think this will work for me......
i think the fruit, gourd idea is a good one. i considered that one. i have also considered doing stacked pyramids of apples and pears (or any fruit in your case). with willow branches or some other "dead thing" as they call them sticking out.
you could also use pictures. frame pictures of you guys as a couple or whatever you want in simple frames, such as silver, or mahogany. sprinkle petals around them.....
hmmmm...what abotu stacking up your favors as cetnerpieces. then it would do double duty? thats all i have for now.....
i went to a wedding in November, and the centerpieces were hollowed out pumpkins filled with flowers in autumn colors. They were really beautiful!

Create the honeymoon of your dreams.
We've decided to get married in the Fall because we love the colors. We're having an outdoor ceremony at 11 am and a Brunch Reception. I absolutely LOVE breakfast, which is why we are doing Brunch. We're having a Waffle Station and an Omlette Station in addition to traditional breakfast and lunch fare on the buffet.
The problem I find myself struggling with is centerpiece ideas. I think I've settled on a combination of cornocopias (sp?) spiling with fruit, gourds, and maybe some other thing. I have 9 tables of 10 max and I wanted to do 3 different centerpieces for the 9 total tables. It's a small wedding (75-90) people.
Because it's early, candlelight is out. And I didn't want to do the traditional flowers as centerpiece. Finally, the room where the brunch is being held has low "house" ceilings. The reception is being held in the "Carriage House" of a local mansion that is also a Bed & Breakfast. I got the "different" part down, but it comes with lots of extra complications.
Any ideas for centerpieces that follow the "Fall in Love"/Autumn theme?
Thanks in advance, ladies!
