Autumn weddings are known for their warm and inviting colour palettes that embrace the rich and vibrant hues of the season. Here are some of the best colour schemes for an autumn wedding:

1. Cranberry and Forest Green

Cranberry red and forest green are classic fall colours that encapsulate the vibe of changing leaves and the holiday season. This combination is rich and visually striking. This is the perfect colour combination for a Christmas wedding as you can add cranberries and holy to your  centrepieces.

2. Rustic Orange and Burgundy 

Burnt orange and burgundy are quintessential autumn colours. They create a warm and inviting atmosphere, reminiscent of falling leaves and harvest time. These colours would compliment wood features and rustic style. Embrace the cozy vibes of fall with a pumpkin spice-inspired colour scheme, with distinct decor such as pumpkins and cinnamon sticks for a true autumn feel.

3. Copper and Hazel 

Copper and hazel tones provide a rich and earthy colour scheme that is perfect for a rustic or bohemian autumn wedding. These colours work well with natural elements like dried florals and crisp greenery.

4. Sage Green and Dusty Rose 

Sage green paired with dusty rose creates a soft and romantic palette. These colours evoke the subtle, earthy tones of fall foliage. A muted pink adds a vintage touch while the soft green brings back the nature aspect.

5. Deep Red and Gold 

Deep reds and rich golds create a luxurious and romantic atmosphere. These colours are flexible as they work well for both traditional and modern autumn weddings. Deep gold or amber tones can evoke the feeling of autumn sunlight with an added touch of luxury.

6. Jewel Tones 

Rich, jewel-toned colours can add a touch of luxury to your autumn wedding. Consider deep purple to add depth and sophistication, emerald green, sapphire blue, and ruby red for a regal and elegant feel and to add a pop of colour. These colours pair well with metallic accents like gold or copper.

When selecting your colour scheme, consider the overall style and ambiance you want for your wedding. Your colour scheme can be matched and complimented in every element of your wedding, not just your decor, think dresses, suits, invitations, paint the town red! Test different combinations and swatches to see how they look together in various lighting conditions, and choose the one that resonates most with your vision for your autumn wedding.
