DIY BRIDES! THINK RICH, DARK, TEXTURED BOUQUETS FOR FALL!

If you want wedding flowers that reflect the fall, your options are gorgeous and stylish!

The hottest trend in fall  wedding flowers is lush, richly hued arrangements with lots of interesting texture. Start with a base of classic flowers and mix in feathery lamb's ear leaves to make the arrangements more remarkable. Velvety coxcomb (below) add wonderful texture. Or you could add non-floral accents such as viburnum or hypericum berries, lotus pods or fiddlehead ferns. Use that Do It Yourself Imagination! The combinations are endless!!
Although texture is key, classic flowers still rule for fall weddings. Use autumn hues or go with more unexpected colors like aubergine, copper, and forest green. Lush, elegant dahlias may be the quintessential fall blossom since they come in all the autumnal tones.
Of course, roses will always be popular and are available in any shade you can imagine!

Also hot for fall weddings: antique hydrangeas in greens and purples. There are tons of how-to's for DIY's! Here is one: http://www.ehow.com/how_7715298_use-hydrangea-bridal-bouquet.html


Fall wedding  bouquets can be more structured than spring and summer bouquets. Densely packed, dome-shaped bouquets in a color scheme such as red, brick, and plum. Instead of leaving stems exposed, trend-conscious florists wrap them in textured fabric, velvet sashes, or ribbons.
The groomsmen boutonnieres can be similarly polished -- instead of a bare stem, choose boutonnieres wrapped in satin or grosgrain ribbon.
