Alternative Fall Wedding Color Palettes

Fall is one of the most perfect times of the year to get married. The air is crisp, the leaves are beginning to fall, and vibrant colors come to life. One of the best things about having your wedding during this time is playing with those vibrant colors in your palette. This season provides the perfect opportunity to put together shades that range from bright and bold to light and airy. We have some great alternative color palettes ideas to help you find the perfect one for your autumn wedding.

Turquoise, White, and Black

The thought of turquoise, black, and white in the same palette for a wedding doesn’t scream “fall” at first thought, but hold tight. Turquoise is actually a perfect color to stand against a fall background; it’s bold, but can be subtle. The black and white bring a bit of elegance to the turquoise, and the colors combined give the palette a royal yet fun look.

Navy Blue, Light Orange, and Peach

Navy is becoming a very popular color at autumn weddings. It’s deep, bold, and stands out with and against normal warm tones, evoking imagery of cold seasonal shadows that contrast against bright fall hues. A dark navy paired with peach provides a great look for invitations, table decorations, and/or accents while a navy dress against flowers in light orange creates the perfect pop of color for bridesmaids. You can even incorporate gold accents as a lovely compliment to all three colors.

Red, Scarlet Red, and Pink

Rustic and vintage weddings always find a great friend in bright green, as it brings nature into the mix, making these themes feel more fresh than stale. Emerald green gives a bold effect to the entire look, and while it’s great by itself, it’s even better paired with an off-white or ivory color. Just be careful not to pair too many colors with green or you might diminish some of its luster.

Gray and Purple

The bold pop of purple combined with the elegance of gray isn’t just about bringing warmth to cooler weather. It’s also a great combination for fall because the deep colors set the romantic feel for the entire night. You can pair purple dresses with ivory flowers and gray suits, and silver is an amazing way to bring gray to the decorations. You can even give this palette a pairing with a rustic wedding, highlighting the natural decorations while feeling elegant at the same time.
