Fall is a wonderful season for weddings. It encapsulates some of our favorite scents, textures, and flavors, from cozy wool scarves to piping hot pumpkin spice drinks – not to mention the bold colors. Reds, oranges, and simple earth tones reign supreme during this season. And, to cap off the month of October, Halloween provides its own unique opportunity to celebrate.

The Houston area presents a particularly optimal location because of its temperate local weather. Unlike some colder, harsher areas, our own state of Texas will allow you to enjoy a beautiful ceremony, either indoors or outdoors.

Whether you decide to tie the knot with a classic ceremony or a spooky Halloween celebration, there’s a beautiful floral arrangement to put the finishing touch on your special day.

In Bloom For Autumn Season: The Meaning Behind Some of Our Favorite Fall Flowers 

With Houston's mild weather during Autumn months, weddings can be held inside and outside, they can be elegant or rustic, wild or stylish.

Romantic pinks and blush tones of Peonies and Garden Roses are no longer available, and calla lilies turn from yellow to gorgeous shade of burnt orange.

Many fall wedding flowers capture the rustic earth tones of fall foliage, offering layers of warmth and texture alongside a splash of color. Fall weddings will typically feature colorful blooms, various flowers in shades of orange, from bright to burnt orange, deep yellow blooms, rich reds, pampas grass, feathers and raw silk accents, sunflowers, peach and sandy roses and spray roses, and fall leaves. Our floral designers have selected to feature some beautiful alternatives to the traditional wedding flowers during fall wedding season. Beautiful, unusual, and available during Autumn, these pretty seasonal and year-round flowers create fresh and fun florals for Fall wedding.
