September is surely one of the nicest times to have a wedding. There is nothing better than a crisp day in the early autumn. For those brides planning to get married in September, these are some beautiful ideas for your wedding.
Fresh flowers add so much beauty to any ceremony or reception. The signature flower of September is the aster, which is also a classic fall wedding blossom. Asters come in pretty shades of purple, violet, blue, pink, red, white, and two-tone. A great thing about asters is that they will not wilt, and will look just as pretty at the end of the wedding as they did at the beginning. A combination of blue and purple asters would be gorgeous for the bridesmaid bouquets. Pink asters and deep plum roses would create a romantic fall centerpiece. Asters are particularly popular for more relaxed ceremonies and receptions.
Gorgeous sapphires are the birth month gemstone for September. Of course, sapphires tend to be very pricey, but there are many ways to include the sapphire color in a September celebration. Your bridesmaids would look amazing in sapphire blue dresses. Sapphire blue crystal heart earrings would be a wonderful complement. The bride can give the Swarovski crystal heart earrings to her attendants as their bridesmaid gifts, which would be really thoughtful. Blue would also be a terrific color for details like the ribbons on the bride’s bouquet, the napkins, and the wedding invitations.
September lends itself to outdoor and tented weddings. A lovely idea for an early fall reception or ceremony is to decorate it with stalks of wheat. It would look fantastic for a barn chic celebration. Wheat is less expected than traditional autumn leaf colors, making it a more unique seasonal decoration. You can work with a lighting expert to create a custom scheme to bring natural forms into your indoor venue. They can create custom gobo lights to project a branch design on the walls of your venue, turning any spot into an enchanted woodland.
Fall is apple season, when the best crisp apples are harvested. You will discover that there are numerous ways to use this special symbol of September. Perhaps one of the most unique things to do with apples is to use them as floating candle holders for votives. What a charming and affordable decoration. Of course you cannot go wrong by serving hot apple cider at your ceremony or during the cocktail hour. Such a lovely hospitable detail for an autumn wedding.
A delightful autumn idea is to create a wishing tree on which guests can hang notes with their wishes for the newlyweds. Place gold painted branches into a pot, and set out leaf shaped papers with a pen. When your guests hang up their leaf shaped notes on the branches, it will look wonderful. It will make a wonderful addition to your wedding reception, and be a cherished memory of your special day for years to come.
