I love a fall color palette. This season brings rich, deeper warm tones that are a dream to design with! As the leaves start to brown and fall to the ground autumn brings a new feel.
People are ready to start to feel cozier, for a slower pace in life, staying in with the fire roaring. You can create a warm, cozy feeling with the right color scheme and design at your wedding.
How to choose your wedding colors
The first step if you already have your venue should be to look at what colors will work with your venue. Then think about the season and theme of your day.
If you have a favorite color or one with special meaning this can be a good base color to start with and build a palette with. Use your venue and season to add your extra colors to create a complete color scheme.
Having an autumn wedding
If you are planning an autumn wedding then you have picked a great time of year! With fall flowers to work with and the stunning change in nature, I really do believe it is great to plan a wedding.
Go and visit your venue during autumn so you know how it will look on the day. This is hugely important if you are getting married outside or have lots of glass windows. The nature around will change in autumn and this should play a part in the wedding colors you chose.
Also, think about how the change in weather may affect your guests. What items can you include in your day to help your guest feel more comfortable? Offering indoor areas, blankets, and warm drinks. Guest experience should be the front of mind always so make sure you think about having a fall wedding affects them.
Fall and autumn natural colors
Fall brings warm shades and nature gives us the perfect palette to work with.
Reds, oranges, yellows, and greens will all be available from your florist. Picking a mix of these colors for your wedding is a great way to get an earthy feel. Speak to your florist about flowers available, look at their colors, and how you can use that to build your color scheme.

Rustic wedding colors
When it comes to weddings, rustic weddings have been on trend for many years and I do not see them going anywhere soon.
If you’re planning a rustic wedding then you need a unique on-trend rustic wedding color scheme.
That’s why I’ve put together this list of 11 must-have modern rustic wedding colors.
Rustic wedding theme
A rustic wedding theme is a popular choice for couples who want to get married in a relaxed and natural setting.
This wedding style often takes place in the countryside or at a barn venue.
The decor for this type of wedding is usually quite simple with lots of natural elements such as wood, greenery, wildflowers, and vintage pieces.
A rustic wedding aesthetic is for couples looking for a relaxed, natural wedding vibe.
How to pick your wedding colors?
The first step if you already have your venue should be to look at what colors will work with your venue. Then think about the season and theme of your day.
If you have a favorite color or one with special meaning this can be a good base color to start with and build a palette with the points mentioned.
What colors are good for a rustic wedding?
There are no set colors that work for every rustic wedding but there are some key colors and color combinations that work well for this style of event.
Some popular rustic wedding colors include Neutrals like cream, ivory, taupe, and gray. Earthy tones like brown, earthy green, and terra cotta.
14 must-have modern rustic wedding color palettes for 2023
1. Rust and greens
Rust tones and greens have to be the perfect rustic wedding color scheme. Earthy, rustic colors that pair together perfectly to give a natural woodland color palette.
Styling Tips
Bring the rust in with the decor pieces, use lots of wood elements. The greens can come from lots of greenery.
2. Green and gray
Green and grey is a soft natural color palette and is perfect for a luxury rustic wedding aesthetic. The beauty of this palette is you can play with the shades and tones to suit any season or style.
3. Best for a spring wedding
Rustic spring greens, a refreshing stylish rustic spring wedding palette. This color scheme is simple but stylish and will create a fresh wedding aesthetic.
4. Best for a winter wedding
Moody rustic vibes all around with this color scheme. I just love this dark neutral color palette for a winter rustic wedding or event!
5. Best for a fall wedding
Green and brown just screams rustic autumn wedding to me! I adore these colors for any season though but they work so well with the natural colors of fall.
6. Woodland romance rustic color palette
Woodland rustic vibes with this color scheme. Greens and greys all mixing together to create a fairytale woodland style.
7. Terracotta and sage green
The color combo of 2022! Terracotta and green is the perfect modern rustic color scheme. A mix of boho and rustic and it is just so naturally beautiful.
8. Celestial rustic greens
Celestial and rustic and are a match made in heaven! They both tie in the natural elements and the need to connect with the natural world. Using greenery blues creates a perfect palette for this mixed wedding aesthetic.
9. rustic orange and peaches
Rust, orange, and peach are a huge 2023 wedding color trend and I see it carrying on into 2024 and beyond! Playing with the tones and shades means you can create the perfect rustic color palette for any season.
10. Minimal rustic color palette
Mixing aesthetics is a great way to make a wedding or event truly unique and personal! Minimal and rustic can in ways seem so far apart but with this neural simple color scheme followed through with the styling it could be a super sleek rustic wedding theme.
11. shades of wood
Is it even a rustic wedding without a wood slice? I must admit I try to push couples away from the typical wood slice centerpiece for a rustic vibe. Wood is a great texture though to use in interesting ways. This color palette pulls all the colors from wood making it the perfect rustic color scheme.
12. Peach, rust, and green
This palette is great for fall/autumn and winter weddings. It is a perfectly balanced palette with sage green and peach lighting the moody tones.
13. Dusty blues
Possibly still my favorite color to use in events, dusty blue. Mixed with soft blues and grays and lots of lush greenery it creates a stylish rustic aesthetic.
14. All the shades of green
I think green has to be ‘THE’ color of rustic weddings. A room filled with greenery of all kinds is definitely what comes to my mind when I think of a rustic wedding or event.

Red wedding color ideas. February is the month of love! But also I think it is the month of red! So this week I am sharing my top red color palettes. I love how taking a color and mixing it with different colors can change the whole feel of a design.
So I am mixing it up and showing how versatile red really can be! No matter your style, theme, or season red can work for you! You will find a red wedding color scheme to fall in love with!
Colour palette basics
So I like to break my palettes into 3 colors for most events. I have my base color which is the one used in 80/90% of the design. Then the main color is the color of the event or wedding. The color everyone remembers. You want to use this in pops though, not all over the space so it becomes overpowering. Remember with both of these colors you want to mix in different shades and tones. Don’t stick to the same exact color for every little item.
Then you have your accent color, usually a metal like gold, copper, or brass. This can definitely be a color also though. This I use to either tie the colors together or add a contract if needed. You will be surprised how much effect an accent color can have on the overall design.
You can of course add in a contrasting color or do a mixed color. It really does depend on the overall design of the day. But for the majority of my weddings, we work with this style of the palette.
Top 5 red wedding color palettes
1. Moody berry red wedding
As you can see with this red wedding color palette there is one base color, a mix of 3 for the main and then the accent. For me here the main colors are two colors molding together and all the shades and tones in between that melt together to make the beautiful burgundy. Which to me is the perfect mix of purple and red.
2. Red, Grey, and Black
I love that this palette is modern, and simple but packs the wow factor. Here you can swap the main color to any color and it will still give a cool modern feel. Yellow works well, it is a great way to do pink also but still have a modern feel.
3. Red, pink and terracotta
I love this one for an autumn palette. It is the perfect modern boho vibe. Swap the pink base for a cream base add all the macrame you can and you are in boho heaven. Again the main colors some would say are 3 colors. They are one hue and the shades and tints are from darker to lighter.
4. Best red spring wedding color scheme
This palette is the perfect spring or summer red palette. The greens in the accent come from the greenery in the flowers. Crisps whites help the reds really pop. Giving a bright colorful and fresh palette.
This is perfect for an outdoor wedding. Or if you want to create that garden feel indoors. Using pink and red roses as if natural growing around the venue gives a beautiful secret garden vibe. Here we have taken the red and added more and more amounts of white lightens it to create our pinker shades.
5. Red and Pink
The modern way to do red and pink! I love this palette as you can play around with the shade of grey to change up the overall feel. The darker the grey even edging to black the moody the feel. Using mainly light grey will add some freshness and lighten the look and make the red and pink pop more.
Tablescape mockups
With my full design clients, I love to focus on the detail of the design. I always do these mock-ups. Usually the table setting and any feature areas or focal points of the day. Or if I or my couple can’t envision a certain design these are how I show them and fine-tune the tiny detail myself. Now, if I could draw I would but my creative skills never spilled into the drawing! I am so bad!
So we are working with Palette 5. We have the overall mood board, this is a quick design mood board. My couples get one for each area plus a brief in their design plan.
A normal wedding mood board would be more in-depth than this. I still try not to include too many wedding shots. Flowers are okay but not completely styled looks. We want to be creating something unique not copying.
So for this, we want the table to have a modern moody feel, that was still relaxed and welcoming. We still want it to feel elegant and stylish and of course full of romance. This is done by using organic floral displays in pinks and reds. Then just some extra carefully chosen pieces to finish off the centerpiece design. Then clean simple and minimal table settings. Also, something often overlooked the chairs play a large role in the feel of the room. the wood a similar shade to the copper works well and the more relaxed feel of the chairs makes the room more welcoming.
Red wedding colors
I hope you found this blog useful and you are now full of red wedding ideas. Remember to keep it simple with your base, main, and accents. Use slightly different colors or shades to add depth and dimension.
