Five Perfect Fall Wedding Color Palettes
The charm of a fall wedding is irresistible. The rich colors of nature, cooler temperatures, and beautiful sceneries make it one of the most ideal times to host a wedding. Fall wedding colors usually involve colors of harvest and on the warm side of the color wheel. From earthy hues to rich jewel-tones to romantic pastels, anything goes this fall. To get some ideas, have a look at these fall wedding color combos we are loving!
Dusty Orange + Sage
boho, rustic, chic
There is no denying that autumn comes with some gorgeous and stunning inspiration for fall wedding colors. If you are a lover of orange, but wonder how to include such a vibrant and bold color in your palette without it becoming overwhelming, try a more muted shade. Unlike the traditional orange of fall, dusty orange is softer and feels so much more elegant. When paired with sage, not only do you get a wedding palette that feels like fall, but you get a color combination that is chic, elegant and sure to awe your wedding guests.

Navy + Silver Sage
romantic, delicate, vintage
There is no doubting that silver sage will continue to be a trending wedding color for 2020. Soft in tone, it gives you the opportunity to bring nature to your big day with wonderful flowers and foliage. When paired with the deep, rich tone of navy blue and a vibrant gold, you get a wedding color combination that is romantic, elegant and vintage all in one.

Navy, Sage + Copper
rustic, elegant, modern
Step aside gold and silver, there is a new metallic in town – COPPER – and I’m loving it! Like navy, copper is a color that can lend itself well to any wedding style. Choose a polished finish and you’ll get a look that is glamorous and elegant. Go for a more aged or matte finish and you’ll get a rustic or industrial feel. Either way, when paired with navy blue and sage, you get a drool worthy fall wedding color combination .

Navy, Wine + Gold
regal, luxurious, elegant
Navy blue – it’s stylish, it’s elegant, it’s peaceful. It has been a hot wedding color for the past few years and will continue to be a trendy color in 2020. There is no denying that navy blue is a rich color that pairs well with many colors, making it a great neutral for your wedding color palette. For fall or winter weddings, pair it with a deep, luxurious wine and you’ll always have a classic match.

Mulberry + Marigold
modern, stylish, glam
Mulberry is a deep, raspberry color with an incredibly rich quality, making it a show stopper for any fall wedding. When paired with marigold, you get a striking contrast you’ll positively adore when putting together your wedding decorations. To keep it from becoming too overwhelming, choose another color like green, to work into your flowers. With a few very well placed touches of shimmering mulberry, you’ll achieve a positively dreamy combination. The opportunities are endless when working with these two unforgettable colors.

This is the third message we've received from family and friends regarding our invitation design, after sending our invites out just a week ago. It's hard enough these days getting people to return their RSVPs for weddings, but to have people go out of their way to compliment the details, is incredible.
