    What flowers are best for an autumn wedding?

    Autumn flower arrangements are a combination of romance, brightness, melancholy and extravagance, reflecting the richness of autumn shades and moods. Warm summer days, saturated with the aromas of flowers and greenery, are still vivid in memory, which find their continuation in exquisite autumn floral creations.

    An exquisite autumn bridal bouquet can include a variety of seasonal flowers, such as dahlias, gladioli, asters, chrysanthemums and other representatives of flora, characteristic of late summer and autumn. However, this does not mean that in late autumn it is impossible to create a sophisticated bouquet of flowers that are usually associated with spring or summer, for example, from eternally beautiful roses or delicate tulips. Elegance and uniqueness of the compositions are given by the "balls" of brunia, bright "lanterns" of physalis, "candles" of capsicum and other amazing branches with buds and inflorescences, which add unusualness and special grace, making the bouquet harmonious and enchanting.

    Best flower colors for an autumn wedding

    Warm colors are ideal for autumn compositions: light orange, yellow, red, warm brown, green and rich orange. The choice of bouquet style also plays an important role - whether it is rustic, classic European or another style, each composition requires a special approach to the selection of colors and their shades. Autumn bouquets allow you to implement the boldest ideas, combining bright flowers with unusual berries, fruits, eucalyptus greenery or decorative pistachio. To create harmony in a bridal bouquet in autumn, it is important to combine no more than three main colors and shades so that each element emphasizes the beauty of the other.

    Cozy bouquet ideas for an autumn wedding

    Autumn is associated not only with fallen leaves, morning frost and coolness, but also with the last warm rays of the sun, fragrant flowers in the flower beds and an abundance of delicious vegetables and fruits. When talking about autumn bridal bouquet ideas, we need to say that this time of year opens up a lot of opportunities for brides to create unique wedding bouquets. Here flowers can be combined with berries, fruits, and even vegetables to create a cozy atmosphere and mood.

    Autumn wedding bouquets with dahlias

    These hardy and frost-resistant flowers can be safely used even with the arrival of the first frosts. If your wedding is planned for November, when the cold is already beginning to be felt, pay attention to dahlias. A rustic bouquet of these flowers captivates with its softness and casual charm. You can create such a bouquet yourself, choosing a simple composition, for example, combining dahlias with ears of corn.

    Rustic autumn bridal bouquets

    The rustic style retains its popularity due to its special connection with the past, which attracts with its simplicity and sincerity. This style attracts with its naturalness, honesty and gives space for creativity. Bouquets in this style are created in a natural color palette, using flowers of delicate, unobtrusive shades: white, cream, pink, blue, green and gray. 

    As an accent, you can add wild flowers in yellow or purple tones, but without excessive brightness. Wild flowers such as daisies, cornflowers, bells, lilies of the valley, sweet peas, dahlias, or lilacs are ideal for creating such a bouquet to create the effect of a bouquet as if just picked in a meadow. On the contrary, cultivated flowers, as if from a greenhouse, are inappropriate here. If you want to add roses, then give preference to peony varieties, which are distinguished by their natural beauty and aroma, despite their slightly irregular shape.

    Small wedding bouquets with autumn flowers

    When choosing a bouquet for the bride on the wedding day, it is important to consider its size and weight - it should not be too bulky and heavy so that it is comfortable to hold throughout the day. The ideal solution would be a compact bouquet with a neatly designed stem decorated with ribbons. Ribbons can be complemented with an elegant brooch, which will add uniqueness to the bouquet and emphasize the individuality of the bride.

    Bridal bouquets for a wedding in September

Dahlias, hydrangeas, and asters are harmoniously combined with branches and leaves of trees and shrubs, whose autumn decoration amazes with the richness of shades. In September, dahlias, garden roses, calla lilies, lilies, as well as autumn foliage, berries, fruits and unusual decor are perfect for creating wedding autumn bouquets.

    • Dahlias
