Use the colors from nature. Fall colors include crimson, wine/burgundy, hunter green, moss/sage/olive green, rust/burnt orange, browns like espresso/chocolate/ sienna/tan. The colors of the trees--orange, red, yellow. Also all the metallic colors such as gold, bronze.

Standard is to use pastels for spring, bold true colors for summer, and harvest colors for fall. You want to use warm colors for the cold months and cool colors for the hot months. However you don't have to be limited to that. You can pick colors you like, since it is YOUR WEDDING. Sage green and tan/beige. Chocolate and tiffany blue. Maroon and cream. Whatever colors are your preference--but stick with just 2 colors. When you try to get 3 or 4, it looks too random.

There are many creative ways to stay true to the season and idea of autumn harvest, such as adding varying shades of orange candles on tabletops, or bowls of seasonal fruit such as pomegranates and miniature pumpkins. Consider laying small, frameless mirrors on the tabletops, with candles of various sizes placed upon them. The reflecting light is spectacular, especially at an evening reception.

If you love a particular color that you feel isn't autumn in flavor, you can still use it -- just don't saturate your day in it. A simple treatment like a vintage ribbon tied around each napkin can make a table feel like you thought of everything. For a softer feel, think ivory and gold accents against your favorite jewel tone. If you don't have room in your budget for a lot of flowers, candles can fill the space and petals can add the fragrance. You can also wrap votives in sheer fabric to add color and style.

If you're getting married in a church, know that most places of worship have several restrictions, so request the handbook on guidelines before you design your ceremony. Select a florist that will show you samples of flowers available at the time of your wedding and is willing to work with you to achieve your vision.

Fall colors: deep oranges, dark reds, latte , or dark brown.

I am thinking of using a deep purple, almost a wine color. sunflowers and other in season " fall" flowers will look really nice with them.

Fall is a great season to pick. there is so much going on in nature that can add to you special day. Let the foliage this fall inspire you.

I know it sounds kinda weird but my sister was in an October wedding last year and the girls wore orange and the guys had orange vests and ties. I thought it looked really cool for October, plus Halloween is right around the corner!

I am really liking the color brown now. There are so many beautiful shades and so many wonderful rich colors go with it. Your options are endless, fall is such a beautiful time of year. Orange, red, yellow, brown, cream, gold, tan, they all would be wonderful!

I really like Brown and light pink!

I like the colors of a deep burgundy kind of red paired with a lighter pale yellow. It doesn't sound like they go together, but they really do. Or a deep purple and a pale yellow. They remind me of fall leaves, too.

Congratulations and good luck!
