11 Rustic Autumn Wedding Ideas for Your Big Day

With the changing leaves, crackling fires, and excitement of the coming holiday season, it's clear to see why so many couples choose an October wedding. Take a look at our pick of the greatest autumn wedding ideas for tasty seasonal food, a stunning colour palette, and plenty of fall wedding inspiration.

Photograph Your Wedding Outside

Make the most of the stunning scenery by using deep reds, amber, and gold in your wedding shots. Consider taking your wedding photos on the grounds of your venue or in a nearby woodland scene. Inquire with your photographer about their own autumn wedding ideas.

Make an Autumn menu

For your Autumn wedding meal, opt for some comforting crowd pleasers, such as slow-cooked seasonal stews, warming soups, and warming chilli. Autumn is a terrific time of year to use all of the seasonal veggies available; ask your venue for some autumn wedding meal ideas.

Prepare Hot Chocolate

Your guests will love this wonderful small rustic wedding idea, whether it's a warm hot chocolate upon arrival or served at the end of the day when the evening turns chilly with marshmallows and cream.

Go for the gold!

Warming hues of crimson, gold, and amber are ideal for autumn wedding ideas, and what better way to decorate your venue than with an autumn colour scheme? There are many gorgeous gold lighting and table decorations available, ranging from sparkly candles to decorated pinecones and gold-painted berries, giving you plenty of ideas for your rustic wedding theme.

Replace Champagne with Mulled Wine

It's never too early to serve mulled wine, and what better occasion than your autumn-themed wedding? If it's a cold day, your guests will appreciate the gesture, and it will get everyone in the Christmas spirit.

Create a Fall Centrepiece

For the perfect rustic wedding table, make a lovely centrepiece out of dried seasonal fruits, tiny pumpkins, fairy lights, and twining.

Wrap in Fashion!

For your October wedding, your bridesmaids will appreciate a cosy shawl or shrug. There are several options available for chilly evenings and outside photos that will fit the bridal party.

Choose Autumn Blooms

There are still plenty of flowers in bloom for your Autumn wedding. From roses to anemones, you'll find some lovely delicate blooms in a variety of stunning colours ranging from pale peaches to deep reds. If you want to go all-out with your autumn wedding theme, try incorporating some dried flowers or gold accents.

Select an Autumn Wedding Cake

Consider a rustic theme wedding cake; we love these naked cakes decorated with fruits and flowers. Ask your florist to make a simple design for your cake or seek some dried fruit or edible flowers to put on each tier.

Make a Cosy Outdoor Area

Even if the weather is cooling down, your evening guests may want to go outside to enjoy the cool fresh air. If your venue has an outdoor space, try hanging some festoon lighting and setting up a patio heater as well as a box of blankets and caps for extra cosiness.

Mood lighting and crackling fires

Consider the weather and think about flames and warmth while selecting your venue. Is your wedding site equipped with a fireplace, a blazing fire upon arrival, warm lighting, or outdoor heating? Take advantage of the shorter days by looking for methods to create the ideal fall wedding atmosphere.

If you're planning an Autumn wedding, there are many ways to make it comfortable and special. Because you're not relying on the weather, you can go all-out with the fairylights, candles, and roaring fires. For the best wedding dresses, you can try Bride Now.
