As the summer wedding season is winding down, we know you autumn brides are in full swing, putting the final touches on your big day. Get a style-filled jump on your fall wedding with some of our favorite trends!
Design
Steering away from bright summer hues, fall’s palette is making it rich, cozy and charming. Rather than the blush rose and ivory color that every wedding boasts these days, think lilac, aubergine, burgundy and beige. The palette is still feminine, but a little more tailored to the season at hand.
These colors can be introduced in florals, of course, but also with linens, accents, or even rugs like this Red Pine Lodge wedding.
If you’re wanting to add a little bit of luxury to this otherwise rustically-inclined palette, think all things sparkly. Metallic candelabras, candlelight and geodes all bring the bling to a wedding spread.
Fashion
Bring on the hues. We are seeing the full rainbow creeping into bridal wear, for both brides & grooms! Vera Wang has a variety of colorful skirts for brides, as does Chantel Lauren Designs, a national brand right out of Salt Lake City!
True Gentleman has the a huge array of colorful options for grooms. Custom from start to finish, they can create the wedding look of your wildest dreams. Don’t let trendy expectations hold you back – authenticity and originality is the key to a timeless style. The more “you” is present, the longer your style will last!
Menu
Of course, you’re going to see your typical menu items for fall. Roasted fruit, hearty vegetables, the works. But something we are seeing and loving this season is the unique array of small plates and hors d’oeuvres coming from the minds of couples and caterers alike.
Tuna tartare cones, mini grilled cheese shooters, whatever you can dream up. Small bites are ideal for getting your guests mingling, and for getting a bit of local flair into your menu. These plates from St. Regis Deer Valley have our mouths watering already.
Venue
Every Utah local knows that the mountains are the place to be for prime Autumn views. Take advantage of those stunning leaves as your backdrop at all venues Park City. From our fall venues featured in the magazine this year, our favorites are St. Regis Deer Valley, Sundance Resort and Red Pine Lodge at Canyons.
