They bring to mind all kinds of happy paradoxes: rustic elegance. Unstaged abundance. An autumn wedding capitalizes on the glorious peep show going on outdoors \u2026 and the not-too-hot weather, and photo ops against curtains of oak or maple leaves the size of a man\u2019s hand. Celebration is an instinct in the fall. But what if you want a fall wedding with a little twist on the usual palette of reds, oranges and golds? What if, in fact, you don\u2019t plan to plunk down a single pumpkin <em>anywhere<\/em>, or jot \u201ccornstalks\u201d on your shopping list?<\/p>\n<p>You\u2019re covered \u2014 we\u2019ve drawn on two of the country\u2019s popular wedding planners for their ideas on putting a chic, urban spin on the traditional fall wedding, or simply on having a reception that goes the extra mile toward being uniquely your own.

Switch those out with autumn leaves, but instead of the usual welter of brights, get leaves that are just one color \u2026 monochromatic. Simply narrowing that palette makes it more contemporary.\u201d<\/p>\n<figure id=\"attachment_44631\" aria-describedby=\"caption-attachment-44631\" style=\"width: 600px\" class=\"wp-caption aligncenter\"><img decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" class=\"size-full wp-image-44631\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638-580x800.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638-500x689.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"auto, (max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><figcaption id=\"caption-attachment-44631\" class=\"wp-caption-text\"><noscript><img decoding=\"async\" class=\"size-full wp-image-44631\" src=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"600\" height=\"827\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638.jpg 600w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638-580x800.jpg 580w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638-218x300.jpg 218w, https:\/\/www.topweddingsites.com\/wedding-blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/08\/c4a7f2ea65ee285b77675593be481638-500x689.jpg 500w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 600px) 100vw, 600px\" \/><\/noscript> elegantweddinginvites<\/figcaption><\/figure>\n<p>Some more of Lusardi\u2019s ideas for autumn splendor with an uptown slant:<\/p>\n<p><strong>Colors. <\/strong>\u201cEven if you want to get away from red and brown, you have a lot of options,\u201d says Lusardi. Go green, she suggests \u2014 a sizzlingly contemporary color. \u201cGo with green grapes, green eucalyptus, green willow. Wrap your napkins in green kiwi branches.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cYou don\u2019t have to focus on forest green, either,\u201d she points out. \u201cDo something different: mossy green, or sage. Going for unusual shades of the usual colors can make a big impact.\u201d She suggests trying burgundy in lieu of bright red, and \u201cmaybe adding a teeny tiny hint of Muscari blue \u2014 it looks gorgeous with these colors.\u201d Or combine mossy green with creams for a cool yet totally autumn palette.<\/p>\n<p>Another trick for going green? Acorns. \u201cAcorns look fresh and modern when you use the young, green acorns with the stems still attached. \u201cThese look beautiful tied to guest cards,\u201d she says.
