Fall Brides: Deep Reds Lead the Way 🍁

Nothing says Fall romance like burgundy & maroon - rich, bold, deep and oh-so-charming. Whether you’re going rustic in a barn venue or a hosting a formal fall affair, these palettes are versatile, fun and elegant.

Which is your favorite?

(This is my first go at creating color palettes & building inspiration collages digitally, so any feedback is appreciated!)

1. Maroon & Burnt Orange - Sleek & sophisticated, this palette leads with earthy elegance and seasonal hues. Orange gives you that classic fall glow while taupe & cream keep things timeless and versatile. Sprinkle in some metallic accents for a warm but upscale aesthetic. Think Gold chargers, maroon draping & white roses.

2. Burgundy & Orange - The cozy, autumn dream team. Burgundy sets the tone while orange adds a fiery warmth. Chocolate brown brings depth while a beige softens and balances the palette. Perfect for shabby-chic venues, sunset ceremonies and warm florals like dahlias, mums and dried grasses. Think terracotta table runners, dark wood chairs, neutral taper candles and pops of orange in your bouquet and centerpieces.

3. Burgundy, Utah Crimson, and Sunset Orange - Deep Burgundy, rich and velvety anchors this palette like the sunset blending into the darkening sky - That sweet spot when deep purples melt into dark pinks and fiery oranges before the sun sinks down over the horizon. This deep, bold palette is great for couples who want a romantic, passionate aesthetic. Crimson offers a touch of bold energy and emotion while sunset orange lights it up with golden hour brilliance. Together, these tones create a warm, painterly canvas inspired by canyon cliffs, desert twilight and falling leaves. Idea for moody industrial spaces, mountain ceremonies and rustic barn weddings. Think gold candelabras, copper bridesmaids and amber goblets.

4. Cabernet & Dusty Rose - Romantic & refined, this palette is for the couple that wants the comfy fall vibes with a softer, more delicate edge. Layers of pink tones add a touch of femininity and grace while golden beige helps tie everything together. Ideal for a vintage wedding with more subtle colors, garden venues and candlelight receptions. Swap the pinks for a peaches and subtle oranges for a sweeter, more summery vibe.

Location: New Smyrna Beach

... Read moreSo, you've fallen in love with the idea of a deep red, burgundy, or burnt orange wedding for your fall celebration – amazing choice! These colors truly capture the essence of autumn romance. But after picking your palette, the fun part begins: bringing that vision to life through every detail. I've gathered some extra tips to help you weave these rich hues into a truly unforgettable day. Bringing Your Deep Red & Burnt Orange Vision to Life: Ceremony Arch & Aisle Decor: Imagine saying "I do" under a stunning wedding arch adorned with autumn-toned flowers and draping. For a rustic burgundy wedding theme, think cascading deep red and orange blooms mixed with lush greenery and perhaps some flowing chiffon or velvet drapes in burgundy or burnt orange. Along the aisle, incorporate scattered petals in your chosen shades or line it with rustic lanterns and small floral arrangements featuring those gorgeous deep reds and oranges. Bridal Party Attire: This is where your colors truly shine! Consider your bridesmaids in deep red and orange dresses. You could choose a uniform burgundy for elegance or mix and match shades like burnt orange, cabernet, or even a delicate dusty rose for a softer, more varied look. The OCR even mentioned "a white dress with orange and pink bridesmaid dresses" which shows how versatile these tones can be. Don't forget accessories like ties or pocket squares for the groomsmen to tie everything together. Captivating Florals: Beyond the bouquet, think about your floral centerpieces and other arrangements. A fall wedding bouquet with red, orange, and white flowers, accented with gold leaves (as seen in the OCR!) is absolutely breathtaking. For table settings, combine larger statement pieces with smaller, more intimate arrangements. Incorporate seasonal flowers like dahlias, chrysanthemums, and even dried grasses to add texture and an authentic fall feel. A "vibrant floral arrangement with deep pinks, reds, and oranges" can create a dramatic focal point. Enchanting Table Settings: This is a huge opportunity to immerse your guests in your chosen theme. For a rustic feel, you might use terracotta table runners or dark wood chargers. For a more formal look, elegant gold chargers would be perfect. Pair these with neutral taper candles in varying heights to add warmth and ambiance. "Amber goblets" or colored glassware can add another layer of sophistication, complementing your chocolate brown and burnt orange wedding theme beautifully. Don't forget your "table setting with pink and purple florals" if you lean towards the Cabernet & Dusty Rose palette – it adds such a romantic touch. Accent with Metallics and Textures: Gold, copper, and bronze truly elevate deep reds and oranges. Think gold candelabras, copper mugs for cocktails, or metallic accents in your wedding stationery. Incorporate rich textures like velvet tablecloths, satin ribbons, or rustic burlap for a rustic burgundy wedding theme. These details make a huge difference! I hope these extra ideas help you envision your perfect fall wedding! It’s all about layering those gorgeous burgundy fall wedding colors and burnt orange burgundy wedding colors to create a cohesive and deeply romantic atmosphere. Which element are you most excited to plan?
