What Floral Style Should You Choose for a Fall Wedding?

There's no one answer when it comes to choosing a fall wedding style. Typically you'll see couples gravitate toward boho and organic, classic and romantic, or modern and structured. Each pairs naturally with the color palette fall gives you to work with.

If you know you want a fall wedding, whether that's this year or next, it's best to get started. Fall weddings at Lloyd's typically book 9 to 18 months out.

Once you've decided which style you want, you'll want your flowers to match both your venue and your vision. That's exactly what we help with during your consultation.

Why are there multiple styles for fall weddings?

There are a lot of options when it comes to choosing what you want your fall wedding to look like.

  • Warm colors, such as rust, burgundy, amber, and dark green, work as a base palette

  • Textured elements like dried flowers, grasses, and branches, plus lush greenery

  • A wide range of venues suit both relaxed and formal versions of these styles

  • A romantic feel doesn't require pastel colors, which is part of why fall works for so many styles

How do these fall wedding styles differ from one another?

  • Boho and organic: Loose, gathered arrangements with dried flowers throughout, and a more free-form look for the aisle and arch

  • Classic and romantic: Fuller, rounder arrangements in jewel tones with traditional flowers, carried through to a fuller arch and centerpieces

  • Modern and structured: A more uniform look with clean lines, often using less greenery and a more monochromatic color palette

Where are couples using more flowers this season?

The aisle has become the big focus for fall weddings, with couples putting more of their design and budget into decking it out. The dance floor is following the same trend.

  • Full or half arches placed along the aisle

  • Draping and hanging installations over the dance floor, sometimes bigger in scale than the head table

  • Moving ceremony flowers to the reception is possible, though it depends on timing and venue logistics
