We have a date set for October 20th 2012.  My colors are fuschia black and white.  What would be a good way to incorporate these colors into the wedding that would make it look autumnish?  All the pictures and  ideas I see for fall weddings are bown and orange.

    Just because you are having your wedding in the fall doesn't mean that you have to have a fall colored scheme.  Stick with the colors you have and I am sure everything will look amazing!

    Could you use orange as an accent color (I personally LOVE fuschia and orange together!)?  If so, you could go with fuschia and orange flowers.

    Larissa’s matron of honor (her sister) carried a simple but bright bouquet of orange calla lilies and roses.

    I went to a wedding last fall where the girls wore fuschia dresses and the guys wore black tuxes with orange vests and ties.  The bride had always dreamed of fuschia as her main color and the groom was not willing to wear a fuschia vest and tie, so that was their compromise.  Once you incorporate the orange that way, you can use it in tons of other ways (pumpkins, munchkin pumpkins, flowers, stones, etc.) 
    Good LUCK!

    Your wedding does NOT have to "look" the season, just go with the colors you like. 

    I've seen several fall weddings that used pink.  One was rose pink and a deeper burgundy/wine color, the other was also black, white, and hot pink. 

    If you really want something "Fall-ish" you can incorporate fall foods or drinks at the reception, like mulled cider, cranberry juice based drinks, or mini pumpkin cheesecakes. 

    Or use typical fall flowers, like pom-pom mums, fuji mums, dahlias, gerber daisies, etc... in white and fuscia (or a darker magenta color).  They can be used in the WP flowers or for the reception flowers.

    Bright green makes a nice compliment to the pink/black/white colors.  You could incorporate green apples or pears into centerpieces or displays of fruit on food tables, maybe with pink/red berries, like raspberries, cranberries, or light red and green grapes.

     these apples or pears might look nice with fuscia and white flowers, on a black surface:

    This is a super old thread, but it looks like those might be Blood Orange Mini Calla Lilies (LINK).
