    Hey Everyone,

     

    I'm getting married Sept 17, 2011 and I am struggling with the colours for the decor.

    My dress is Alabaster (ivory) and my Bridesmaids I would like to be in Charcoal Grey with Burgundy/Maroon/Wine coloured flowers (see attached for a colour palette).

    I also attached a picture of our hall (ignore the decor in the picture)... very high ceilings, light wood floors, darker accents of wood on wall (kind of barn like).

    Now, I don't want to decorate the hall in super LIGHT colours (but I do want there to some light elements).

    I like BOLD colours, but I still want to hall to have a "wedding" feel - so I don't want everything to be dark. I love the look of the attached, but will that go with my Charcoal Grey BM dresses???

    Basically...want a fall theme

    Work with... Charcoal, Burgundy, FALL

    HELP!!!!

    When I think of Fall, I think of the orange/yellowish trees outside. Maybe you can somehow incorporate those in there?

    @babycakes: I agree with Ugoob, I think more of oranges and yellows for a fall wedding.

    What about jewel tones?  Oranges and yellows are nice, but I feel like everybody uses those for fall weddings.

    I don't think I'll be much help as far as your colors are concerned but we are having a full fledged fall themed wedding.

    This is our color palette...

    I love the idea! I am getting married in October, and my colors are burgundy, plum, eggplant, and aubergine (below picture are all of the colors that are being incorporated). When I first started planning, I was going for more red orange tones because that is what most people think of when they hear of a fall wedding. I However, I decided to go in this direction because I think it's bold/ daring, and not a lot of people do it. it's still fall, and it's a color that goes with anything,  Don't stress, your are on the right path, go with your instincts.

    Table arrangements

    5X8 vase with red ti leaves within concealing stem- lines the inside of the vase. The ti leaves have some green in them

    Burgundy-green ivory pee gee hydrangea

    Burgundy plum dahlia (my favorite!)

    black bacarra roses

    burgundy yarrow

    burguny green foliage

    Table cloths were orginally going to be ivory, with a burgundy runner, but my florist told me that the runners would look like stripes on a table, and to go at least 3 shades dark (light-medium brown). It sounds like a lot of red, but the way he explained how he was going to arrange the flowers, it is going to look very pretty. I can't wait!

    My wedding is September 17, 2011 too!  We are having a fall/nature-themed wedding.  Our main colors are deep red and dark brown and then I'll throw in golden yellow, burnt orange, and green for punches of color.  I still don't know exactly how I will incorporate everything together, but I think piece by piece, it will fall in place.

    I know it's been a while since the main post but i love talking about colors! I would add a blue to burgundy. It's not seen very often but it adds a unique touch.

    i think it is very fall like. I saw this pallette which is a little more red than burgundy, but it has the same feel, I think, for fall. Fall Theme Wedding Colours :  wedding fall theme september burgundy charcoal grey black autumn colours Redgray
