There is quite a chasm between Autumn flowers and Winter flowers in terms of colour, style and fragrance. However, some blooms are clearly suitable for either season and - depending on the colour - can be incorporated into a winter or autumn themed wedding.
Obvious choices for Autumn flowers may be berries with plenty of dark green, brown, orange and gold foliage. Equally though, purples, dark pinks, burgundies and anything in chocolate browns look quite at home during the Autumn season. In fact, if there is an introduction of a different colour it can prevent arrangements looking contrived or clichéd. If you focus your flowers around a 'Harvest' style theme, and work outwards from this centre point, then you can't really go wrong. Autumn is such a great time as there is such an abundance of seeds, fruits, berries and grasses that contrast beautifully together. When choosing flowers to accompany berries, seeds, twigs and foliage choose from or combine vibrant orange Tiger Lillies, Chocolate or peach roses, honeysuckle, cream freesia, orange gerbera and ivory carnations. Your florist will help you with which flowers are seasonal if you are still unsure as to what to go for.
