There are plenty of brides (and grooms) out there who love autumn so much, they opt for an October or November wedding to take full advantage of fall’s rich colors and relatively mild weather. This fall, a seasonal theme is not at all hard to incorporate into every wedding detail, right down to the diamond engagement ring, wending bands, and bridal jewelry. If you’re having trouble deciding where to start, check out wedding blogs and social networking sites to find some great ideas to emulate. This season, rich reds and browns, deep golds, and harvest yellows are popular colors for formal weddings, and casual brides are having fun with some surprising color palettes – chartreuse and medium purple, for instance, are a trending in everything bridal, from cakes to bridesmaid dresses, to jewelry. Colored diamonds are among the most sought after accessory for brides this fall, not only in earrings and necklaces, but diamond engagement and wedding rings are sprouting rich color diamonds and gemstones alongside the classic white diamond, and even raking center stage in some engagement ring designs. In fact, brides are fast embracing new opportunities to make their engagements and weddings very personal, with some fun and exciting results. Wedding dresses in subtle and not-so subtle shades of color are gaining a new audience, and giving the classic white wedding gown some competition. Brides are also looking for jewelry that isn’t the demure pearl pendant their mother wore. Finding unique and colorful jewelry pieces to compliment the wedding’s theme colors and bring out details of the wedding dress should be one of the most fun parts of putting together the bridal ensemble. Mens wedding bands have never been more appealing, with incredible lines in white gold, yellow gold, platinum, titanium, steel, cobalt and other metals. What's really exciting about the men's lines of wedding bands are the injections of color and the artistic edge to so many styles that make it not only possible for your groom to find a ring that completely reflects his personality, he'll probably have a hard time narrowing it down to one. Exquisite craftsmanship, attention to details, and some of the new metals that are lightweight, comfortable, and won't get damaged no matter how rough he plays. If there is one mantra for planning a fall wedding, it would be “make it your own.” Originality is at its height in wedding planning, and that doesn't end at the reception hall decorations. Color, nuance, and plenty of your personality is what makes a fall wedding your very own spectacular event. This year, injecting your personality is the height of bridal fashion. ###
