Wow! This summer went by in a blink, and we’re so excited for the fall. From the warm colors, to the firepits and s’mores, it’s no wonder this season is full of parties, celebrations, and of course, weddings. The humidity disappears, the temperatures cool off and the smell of the leaves changing fills the air.
We are so inspired by this season. One of the favorite things we like to do is to incorporate fruits with warmer colors into centerpieces. As seen in this picture, we used oranges (some halved) along with deep purple grapes to add something a little different for this fall wedding. Fruits and vegetables to be considered? Artichoke hearts, grapes, pomegranates and yes, even blood oranges. Work with your florist to pull these items together with the flowers you want to use.
Think back to those campfires with friends…remember how cozy the firepit was? Think about having one at your reception, complete with hot cocoa and s’mores. Let your guests put the marshmallows onto sticks and roast them over a warm fire before placing them between chocolate and graham crackers. Want to skip the mess, or don’t have room for a firepit? Consider giving away pre-packaged s’mores as your favor for guests to enjoy later in the season.
What about the fall inspires you? How will you incorporate the season into your big day? We’d love to hear your thoughts!
