As fall is approaching we took a closer look at which  flowers are the best for autumn weddings. In the fall season the nature glows with color, where it is easy to find a beautiful theme for a wedding. At this time the color schemes vary from warm shades of yellow and orange, to brown and red. They can also be something a little less traditional such as rich plum purple with accents of gray. You can also add fun and interesting elements such as maple leaves and berries to decorate wedding arrangements at this time of year. Adding accents of gold, bronze and other metallic colors will also look marvelous in an autumn wedding.

Dahlias

Lush dahlias are one of the essential flowers for autumn weddings. Dahlias come in all the fall colours: red, burgundy, orange and plum and they blossom during this season. Dahlias symbolize the inner strength and creativity.

Gerberas are one of the most popular flowers for fall weddings. Gerbera daisies are available in many different color and sizes and they suggest loyalty and innocence. Gerberas are best to be used in centerpieces and bridal bouquets but can also look fun as a boutonniere or corsage when used in the mini size.
