Best Color Ideas For Autumn Wedding

Autumn is a great season for marriage. The temperature is neither too hot nor too cold. From pumpkin to amber to burnt orange, there are so many shades to choose from for autumn weddings. Orange may be an overwhelming color, so pair it with a neutral color, like grey for example. No matter the shades of the colors you choose, orange and grey will make your wedding day memorable. 

                                                               Wedding Decor 
Orange and gray wedding decoration add drama to your wedding ceremony and reception. Use an orange floral arrangement with a gray bow as pew markers. Cover guests' tables with slate gray tablecloths and an orange runner for a splash of color and boldness. Head and buffet tables tend to be longer than guests' tables, so use gray tablecloths to cover the table then use a piece of pleated orange material to replace the traditional tulle swag that typically decorates these tables. Slide a grey slipcover over the chairs at your wedding reception and tie a wide piece of orange fabric or ribbon around the back so it forms a beautiful knot or bow in the back. For table centerpieces, use orange flowers, vases full of oranges, or an assortment of orange and grey candles.

                                                              Wedding Bouquets
Many different species of plant bloom with orange flowers, offering you a variety of flower choices for your wedding. You can add romance to your wedding with peach-colored roses as a bouquet or centerpiece. You can also have your flower girl sprinkle orange rose petals down the aisle. For an exotic feel, use orange alstroemeria or orange Asiatic lilies. As a bouquet, these flowers will create a sharp contrast between the bride's white dress and the bridesmaid's grey dresses. However, if the orange of the flowers feels too bold for your taste, mix white alstroemeria or Asiatic lilies in with the colored ones to tone down the color. When using orange flowers for a bouquet, add a grey ribbon. For orange flower centerpieces, use grey stones in the vases or slices of oranges in the vase.

Bridesmaid Attire

When your bridesmaids first hear your wedding colors of orange and gray, they may blanch a little and envision bridesmaid dresses than resemble giant pumpkins. Since orange is such a powerful color, put your bridesmaids in a simple yet elegant grey dress. A dark grey color will help to flatter any body type. Incorporate an orange sash around the waist for just a pop of color. Both you and the bridesmaids will be happy with the look. 

Orange and grey color combinations can make your wedding flowers, wedding decorations and bridesmaid dresses wonderful!
