Fall Wedding Ideas with Acorns and Cute Squirrels

I'm going a little nuts today on the blog with a fall themed inspiration board where acorns and cute squirrels take center stage. Cute wording for the wedding would be saying the couple's names and that they're nuts for each other. This Acorn and Squirrel Themed Wedding Inspiration Board combines creams and pearls with the brown shades of fall and I just love the elegance it creates.

Fall Inspired Wedding Desserts

This was probably one of my favorite posts from last fall on my blog. I love the idea of serving guests something totally unexpected at bridal showers and weddings. These warm and cozy desserts are perfect for fall weddings when the air gets chilly at night or even if you plan to have a brunch the morning after the big day.

Featured Desserts Include: Caramel Apple-Cherry Pie, Chocolaty Harvest Fruit-Topped Cake, Stout Gingerbread with Lemon Sauce, Raspberry Fudge Pudding Cake, Maple Creme Brulee, Chocolate Lover's Cake {all images courtesy of BHG.com}

Are you planning a wedding this coming fall? Fall weddings are the perfect time of year to be inspired by tradition and enjoy a cozy backyard or smaller, more intimate gathering. No matter how you plan your wedding, be sure to personalize it.

Themes
Weddings are always best remembered for their uniqueness so you might want to start out by picking a theme for your wedding. The next step would be to personalize it and one idea is with a common interest or hobby that you an your fiancé might share that can be integrated into your wedding theme. For fall weddings, you can incorporate darker hues in the colors or go with a leaf, twig or pinecone motif. These can be incorporated into everything including the color of the bridesmaids' dresses to the flowers, table linens, invitations, wedding favors and even the wedding cake. Letting both of your personalities flow all throughout your wedding is fun for you and the guests. Remember, this is your day, so spoil yourself and go with what feels right for you as a couple.

Ceremony and Reception Details
Once you have decided upon a theme, you can then select your wedding attire, flowers and centerpieces to coordinate with it.

Wedding Attire
Fall wedding dresses tend to be a bit more whimsical, romantic, and inspired by old Hollywood glam. It's all about laces, chiffons, light silks, satins, pearls, crystals and breezy silhouettes. Here's a few ideas . . . you can have your bridesmaids wear cocktail dresses instead of floor length gowns, or you can just give them swatches of your color motif and have them buy their own dresses. This will be cost-effective and stress free.
