As time goes by, more couples are opting to marry in the fall. In a place like South Florida, where summers are so hot, fall weddings are a great option. If you are considering a fall wedding, or perhaps your fall wedding is just around the corner, consider these style and decor trends that have become wildly popular in the past year.

Outdoor Weddings

Given the desire to protect our friends and family as we combat the international pandemic, outdoor weddings have been popular for all of 2021. However, it’s really fall that is the perfect time for an outdoor wedding. With cooler temperatures and less rain chances, outdoor ceremonies and receptions are a great choice. Create a magical look with some twinkling lights and light, flowy linens.

Bright Fall Color Palettes

For this fall season, jewel and earth tones are quite popular for fall weddings. Make a statement with one tone or the other, or mix and match them for a unique color palette. It will make for a great pop of color for not only decor, but your pictures with the bridal party. These days, not only the women dress in exciting colors– there are plenty of gorgeous, colorful suits for men to wear too.

Dried Flower Arrangements

You can’t have a wedding without flowers, but who says they have to be fresh? It sounds strange, but it is an emerging trend over the past few years. Dried flowers not only lend to a seasonal feel, but can be preserved exactly how they looked on the day of the wedding. Often times, arrangements will include fresh and dried plants for a more dynamic look. Ask your florist about dried flower options– or, if you’re feeling crafty, start drying the flowers yourself.

Miniature Pies

It’s been established that individual wedding cakes and miniature desserts are the go-to for 2021, but why not take that a step further? Embrace the season with miniature pies for your guests. These can be used in place of a traditional wedding cake, or as a yummy wedding favor.
