November/Fall Brides

Hello! I just wanted to see if there were any other November/Fall brides out there that are not doing brown bridesmaids dresses. I am doing black dresses with fall flowers. Just wondered if anyone had some info for me regarding your ideas for your day! Thanks everyone!

    I just had an October wedding and did sapphire blue dresses with fall flowers. There are a lot of options besides brown so you're definitely not the only person not using it for BM dresses.

    I had an October Fall wedding, and we had burgundy BM dresses, and no brown in our colors at all! You can do whatever colors you want. We had a Scottish wedding, so I based my colors on my DH's kilt, which were burgundy. green, and silver.What colors do you want?

    Sara had eggplant dresses with a navy sash, and they looked beautiful!

    My wedding isn't until 11/2010. I am doing burgundy with gold and  creme accents. My best friend's wedding (also in 11/2010) is using lapis (deep plum color) with silver.

    I picked out a black Mori Lee bridesmaids gown to slightly mirror my wedding gown. I love them! I wish I could wear one too!! I am doing a sort of black & white.. fall flowers.. white pumpkins theme! I actually had a florist make me some fake flowers and they are so bright and gorgeous I think they will look great against black. BUT.. thinking about the reception.. black and white linens.. Having a white table cloth may throw off my white pumpkin on the table idea!! Because I know for sure that I don't want black table cloths!! Any ideas?

    I had a September wedding and did periwinkle and sage.  You don't have to do colors by the season. Do whatever you want.

    What about white tablecloths with a black table runner?

    My first thought was also black table runners if you want to use white pumpkins. That, or go with traditional orange and red pumpkins (google the martha stewart glitter pumpkins! Those would be super pretty as centerpieces!)

    Why no black cloths?I had black table cloths at my wedding. It was September and I used black BM dresses with black magic roses. Snorge had black BM dresses with Fall flowers and L2theC had plum BM dresses that were gorgeous!

    Sounds amazing! I really appreciate all of your input!

    I'm a November bride (2 weeks!)! My girls are wearing black dresses. My colors are black and white with fuschia and silver as accents. I think you could do black runners on your tables.

    Ok I'm a little late on this but We'll be having our wedding next October, our colors are black and white. The only accent is going to be the use of peacock feathers randomly throughout the day. I think that like other have said, you don't have to stick to any specific color, or mix of colors just because of the season. Do what fits for the two of you. Have fun with it.

    I'm a November Bride - our wedding is this Saturday! My BMs are wearing cobalt blue and the accent is in the flowers: fuschia gerbers.

    We had orange pumpkins on all the guest tables and little white pumpkins up on the head table.  We had white table cloths with a light gold overlay.

    I'm a 10/2/10 bride and we aren't using fall colors at all really.  Our colors are black and yellow (due to our love for Pittsburgh sports :) ) My bridesmaids are wearing canary yellow dresses and the guys are wearing black tuxes with white shirts and canary yellow vest/tie.  I'm not really incorporating fall colors in to my wedding at all which is kiiiind of hard but I love the whole black and yellow look!!
