Perfect Fall Centerpieces

September 11th, 2008

Fall is a wonderful time of year to have a wedding. The weather is pleasant and there are so many beautiful natural elements to incorporate into your wedding. A perfect place to explore the beauty of fall is in the centerpieces for your reception.

Some brides love the rustic look. It is ideal for the type of wedding where the bride will be wearing a simple gown and handmade wedding jewelry. If your style leans more towards a satin ball gown with wedding jewelry handmade with dazzling Swarovksi crystals, there are ways to use the fall theme in a more elegant style.

A great idea for a less formal wedding is to carve out pumpkins and gourds for your centerpieces. They make a great alternative to regular vases. Autumn flowers like mums and asters would look fantastic casually displayed in a carved out gourd.

One of the most popular ideas for wedding centerpieces is to use natural branches. They are a great way to add height and an interesting form to centerpieces.  For a fall wedding, it would look wonderful to use leaves in the fiery autumn colors and attach them to the branches. It is a great way to bring the outside to an indoor space.

Another great fall item that you can use for decoration is apples. Tall clear cylinders would look great filled with bright red apples. To dress up the centerpiece, adorn the each cylinder with a beautiful ribbon, and scatter votive candles on the table surrounding the apples. Like the pumpkins, apples will make very attractive seasonal centerpieces at a minimal cost.

When looking for fall centerpiece ideas, you can also consider other items from nature, such as wheat stalks, vines, and mini haybales. There are many unique possibilities to dress the tables for a fall wedding, and many of them will be affordable as well as charming. Embrace the best that the season has to offer to really give your autumn wedding a lovely and unique look.
