Fall Wedding Colors and Jewelry Inspirations
Getting married is an epic, life-changing moment in your life no matter when it occurs. But there’s something extra special when you have a fall wedding. There’s a hint of crisp autumn air, the leaves are changing, and it’s a romantic season. If you’re planning to be a fall bride, then we’ve got you covered. We compiled fall wedding colors and jewelry inspirations to help.
Fall Wedding Color Palettes
There are plenty of stunning fall wedding color palettes, and hopefully these ideas will help you discover some perfect fall color ideas. You can incorporate colors into your wedding in a variety of ways, like napkins, candles, invitations, tablescapes, flatware, flowers, etc. Here’s a list to get you started:
Gold
Gold is a classic, lovely fall wedding color that adds chicness and formality to your event. There are a few ways you can weave gold into your wedding theme: gold flatware, gold-hued flowers, and delicate gold accents on your wedding cake. First, use gold metal for your wedding jewelry. You can also select rose gold as the base metal for your jewelry–it’s gorgeous and has a romantic vibe. Jewelry ideas include a stylish gold or rose gold cuff bracelet, diamond drop earrings and a halo diamond and gold necklace.
Cornflower Blue
Cornflower blue, think of the color of denim, makes a great fall wedding color by itself or paired with other colors like yellow, sage green, or other shades of blue. Incorporate this color with tablescapes, candles, flowers, and jewelry. Sapphire is the ultimate gemstone if you plan to have blue as a wedding color. Blue sapphires are a popular, classic gemstone that is known for their durability, increasing value, deep color, rarity and beauty. If you’d like another option, then tanzanite would also tie in the blue theme nicely. Tanzanite comes in shades of blue and violet and is a beautiful stone. Either of these gemstones in a pendant necklace would look stunning.
Apricot
Apricot is an amazing color for a fall wedding because it’s a light, yellow-orange that’s reminiscent of colors of falling leaves. It represents hope, optimism and happiness. It can be your solo wedding color or you can pair with a neutral tone or another color, such as green. Citrine is a great gemstone for an apricot-themed wedding. It’s November’s birthstone, exudes a cheery vibe, and instantly uplifts. Try a pair of citrine stud earrings to incorporate this color into your wedding jewelry.
Forest Green
Forest green is one of those colors that radiates an earthy, fall feeling. If you’re having an outdoor fall wedding, then you can take advantage of the green foliage around you. Add green in major or minor ways by weaving into tablescapes by using greenery, napkins, invitations, ribbons or candle holders. In terms of jewelry, emeralds are a must have if green is one of your wedding colors. Emerald is a precious stone, so if you’d prefer an alternative stone, then peridot is a good option. Consider a right-hand ring featuring an emerald or peridot. An emerald or peridot pair of drop earrings would also make an eye-catching statement piece on your wedding day.
Fall Wedding Jewelry
- If you want to mix metals in your jewelry, try to keep similar tones together. For example, pair rose gold with yellow gold or platinum with white gold.
- Keep your budget in mind as you select your wedding-day jewelry. You can find a variety of gemstones and wedding jewelry to fit your budget. Remember that the gemstone and the type of metal can impact the cost.
- Buy from a reputed brand that offers easy returns and exchanges if you’re dissatisfied with the product or have any issues. Research the warranty, reputation of the company, and the exchange/refund policy.
- As you evaluate colorful gemstones for your wedding jewelry, prioritize quality over the carat weight (hint, use the 4Cs). Every gemstone is unique, so evaluate each one carefully in terms of color saturation, cut, clarity, and carat weight.
