Fall is that season where you’ll find the most magical colors, it’s literally the best time to do a wedding if you want the most magical look. There are so many lovely colors that you can use. I’ve been doing wedding decoration for a long time and fall weddings are always the most artistic.

Bohemian, rustic and even vintage themes, are the most used when it comes to a fall wedding. These themes fit the fall season perfectly so don’t be surprised if you find a lot of people doing those themes.

You can mix any of the three themes listed above and your decoration will still look perfect, each of them are versatile and can be placed anywhere.

Whether you’re here for a thrifted wedding or you want to try something more expensive, we’ve got enough ideas for you. These decorations are easy and can be done as a diy project, so if you plan on doing your decoration yourself, you’re in safe hands. If you want to hand it to a professional, you can also do that as there are many elegant designs here.

If you’re to going to host a fall wedding then your welcome signboard should be covered in the theme decoration. This is the first place your guest will see so it should prepare them for the rest. I’ve never asked a professional to do a party welcome sign before because it’s easy to do.

Get a board, print what you want on it, glue your printed paper to the board. This should be a hard paper so it doesn’t get torn.

Pumpkins, flowers and candles are three things you can use for the floor decor. Use pumpkins and flowers because they’re both perfect for this theme.

Pumpkins on the floor will be a different look from what I see regularly. I like ideas that are very different from the norm and this is a perfect idea. This is the best way to use these pumpkins, place them in front or beside the tables for a nice colorful experience.

Chandeliers are always welcome in any indoor decoration, it’s one of the most beautiful lights you can use. Falling flowers just below the chandelier is a very good idea and will make that place look beautiful. I tried this chandelier/flower idea at a wedding decor and it was a magical experience.

A wedding arch has got to be the easiest thing to do, you can decide to hire someone but I’m just letting you know that it’s not hard at all. You can literally use household items to decorate your wedding arch, most of these items are not too expensive if you choose to purchase them.

Get some lovely flowers and place them around the arch, brown flowers will be better because you’re hosting a fall wedding. Use these flowers to decorate even the floor of the arch, you can also place candles or even those artistic vintage lamps.

It’s a common practice to decorate the wedding aisle but what if you could try something different. Flower, candles and vintage lamps are items people use for their aisle decoration. Pumpkins are very different from those items and it represents the season perfectly.

Place your pumpkin on each side of the aisle like from the entrance to the arch. You can place some flowers beside them but the pumpkins will do just fine.

These barrels are perfect for a rustic wedding, you can place a barrel at the entrance with some small flower/pumpkin decoration on it.

Not sure I’ve seen pumpkin centerpiece before, this looks wonderful and I’ll definitely look to try it out. If you want to try something more artistic then this should be perfect.

Empty the pumpkins, you can wash the inside clean if you like. Place some orange flowers instead the pumpkin because it’ll serve as your plant pot. This should be perfect for a nice pumpkin centerpiece.

Candles are the best when it comes to a bright centerpiece arrangement, you’ll get the perfect table arrangement with this pumpkin and candle centerpiece arrangement. Vintage candle holders will be the best for an artistic look, I’ll love to try this idea out.

Seating chart is one of the many things you can do yourself if you’re decorating a wedding venue. I’ve done a lot of wedding decorations and seating chart is always the easiest for me. It doesn’t take too much time for me to get it right.

Pumpkins will be perfect for this seating chart decoration, I’ve never used pumpkins but I’ve use leaves, wood and even candles. These pumpkins will take your decoration to another level.

Get a big rustic cupboard like this one, you can use a bookshelf too. Get small pumpkins, I’ll prefer the bright orange ones. Print your seating arrange ment on a paper, then pin them on those pumpkins. This will be the perfect chart for a fall wedding.

Everyone is used to seeing the regular orange/white pumpkins in decorations, it’ll be a great idea to change that and do something completely different. A gold pumpkin is something I never thought I’d ever see but it’s right here and it looks perfect, this gold pumpkin might be artificial or a natural one you can just spray paint.

They’ve used long flowers as opposed to small plant pots, these long flowers are better because you can extend them down to the floor like they’ve done in this image, you also don’t have to worry about getting different flower vases.

The long flower combination and the gold pumpkin are perfect together, this is a magical idea and I’ll love to try this lovely table setting.

There’s so much you can do with the regular items you find at home, some of the items in your garage can be used for a lot of decorations. I’ve use a lot of forgotten items for party decorations too and people get surprised how I manage to utilize something that was thrown away.

This is just the combination of some old wooden furnitures that are no more in use. You can also get some of these in thrifted stores too but I’m sure they’ll be very cheap.

This is the perfect way to organize a rustic cake stand, if you want an easy but artistic cake stand decoration then you’ve got to try this.

The arch is another easy thing to do, there are tutorials on how to create the perfect arch and those tutorials are very easy. It’s one of those decorations where you don’t have to spend too much to get it right. Something, you don’t even have to spend anything at all.

Clothes, lights, flowers, vintage lamps and candles are items that people use for their arch decorations but they’ve literally used everything here. All the items you could possibly think of have been used for this arch decoration. This is the perfect combination and I love it.

Rustic designs are some of the best and you’ll ever find, they’re have some of the most artistic furnitures. If you’ve planing on picking a rustic setting then you should because a rustic theme is perfect for a fall wedding. You’ll get the most artistic setting from a rustic design.

Rustic furnitures are the best for an outdoor wedding, you can use them for both the chairs and the wedding arch.

Use brown flowers to decorate the arch, these brown flowers are perfect for the wedding arch and you’ll love the combination. Adding flowers with orange colors should also be a perfect combination.

You can pull off the most artistic decoration even if you’re a beginner. You don’t need to use all the items to create a nice look, you can just put a few things together and it’ll be better than something done by pros. I’ve done a lot of seating charts and they’re not hard at all, I get creative with them a lot.

Use some rustic wood to create a nice pattern as seen in this image. Print your seating arrangement and I’ll be nice to use the same colors you used for your invitation card or the colors of your theme. Place your printed material on the wooden board you’ve made, you can also use flower, pumpkins and candies to decorate the floor.

Flowers hanging from the top has been a trend because it quickly blew up. It’s a very nice idea so I see why, you’ll mostly see this in a floral wedding as that’s where you’ll more flowers. It’s the most magical way to decorate the top and if you’ve got light, it’ll take it to the next level.

Place a rope from one end of the table to another, the rope should be lower than the ceiling lights. Get flowers and tie them around the rope you’ve placed on the ceiling. These flowers can be any color but orange and green would be perfect for this fall wedding.

It’s fall season and the plants are perfect, if you can get a location where those lovely orange and brown plant are, you’ll get the best vibe. This theme can be recreated easily, it might be the easiest on here. The flowers are already doing most of the decorating so you’ll not have to do much.

You can just place your plant pots on the aisle and the trees will do the rest. Gather the leaves that have fallen from the trees and use them to decorate the aisle. Arrange these small leaves from the entrance to the arch, it’ll be the most magical fall wedding ever.

Table decoration might be the most important decoration when it comes to a wedding reception, you’ll need to create the perfect setup and they’ll have to be identical. This table setup is very similar to what you have at home but it has to be more classy.

A rustic table setup will be perfect for a fall wedding and they’ve improvised a lot here. You can get someone to cut the trees in this sized for you, you can do it yourself though but it has to be shaped perfectly. Place your plant pot, candles and glasses on the wood, it’ll be the perfect rustic table setup.

When it comes to thrifted wedding, you can literally use anything and it’ll seem artistic. Your garage will be your biggest help because those wooden tables and chairs you’ve abandoned and those small ladders you’ve tossed aside, will come in handy.

Get two barrels, place them in each side then place a big plant on each barren to form a table. You can use a barbell and a ladder like they’ve done here or you can use two barrels, whichever one is available. This setup will be where you’ll setup your beverages, you can also use plants to decorate it.

If you’ve been following this blog, you’ll notice that I always say that seating chart is the easiest to do and that’s a fact. You can literally use your house hold items to create a seating chart. Sometimes it depends on the theme, but you’ll surely find something to use.

I’ve done this setting a lot but not with this type of mirror though. Print your seating arrangement and turn them to stickers, stick them on the mirrors like they’ve done, you can also use a pen but stickers are perfect. You can use candles and flowers to decorate that are and it’ll be perfect.

Orange and brown are two colors that represent the fall season perfectly and you’ll do well to add those colors in your decoration. I did the decoration for my friend’s fall wedding and we used a brown and white table clothe. You can use brown and white too or you can use exactly what they’ve got here.

A round table setting would be perfect for multiple guests, it’s also great to try something different. Rustic chairs will always be the best when it comes to fall decorations, you’ll love them if you give them a try. This is the perfect table setting to try for any fall event.

You’d think that you’ve seen it all until you see something that’s totally different. People can be very creative and I love it, I love when people do something that’s totally different from the norm. A door at the entrance would seem weird because it’s an open location, but with art anything is possible.

If you find a big door that you’re not using, you can use it for this arrangement. Get a big door, mount it at the entrance of your venture, you can use clothes that have wedding theme or you can use flowers. They’ve used flowers plus it’s an outdoor wedding.

We’ve seen different ways you can organize a welcome signboard, some are printed while others are painted. You can really make your board however you like, it depends on how good you make them to be. This rustic board is perfect for the theme and I suggest you try this.

In the first image (image number 1), the main decorations were done on the floor, this is the opposite as the decorations are done on the board it self. The pumpkins and flower combination is very beautiful so you can mix them together for the board decor.

Rustic weddings where people have improvised with different rustic materials are the most artistic weddings I’ve attended. Rustic materials can be used for any decoration, they’re literally the most versatile. A rustic material can be used for any kind of theme, that’s why we love them.

It’s normal to find candles and flowers being used as aisle decoration but what if you tried something else. Cut some wood like you see here and place some flower vases on them, you’ll put them together and arrange from the entrance to the aisle.
