Greetings Aisle Filers! Although we are still in the final weeks of the summertime, the fall season is fast approaching. The Capital District is beautiful during the autumn months. Signature fall festivities such as apple picking, pumpkin picking, traveling to view the changing foliage, and the game of football are only some of the reasons why couples love to have fall weddings in upstate NY. While we enjoy the remaining days of summer, here are some fabulous ideas to get you enthused and inspired for the months ahead!

Décor:
This is a lovely idea for a ceremony! Baskets of apples or hay bales with mums may also look very nice. (Quick Tip: use your ceremony décor as accent pieces during your reception as well!)

Wedding Attire:
Incorporating autumn colors to outfit the wedding party is also a great way to highlight the season! Chocolate brown, deep purple, various shades of orange, sangria (or deep red), assorted yellows, and metallics (gold or copper) are just some of the colors you could use that really capture the essence of autumn.

Fall Food & Drink Ideas
Incorporating a fall theme into your wedding menu is yet another wonderful idea! As the weather chills a little bit, you will find flavors becoming a bit more savory and hearty. Drinks such as pumpkin lattes, apple cider (warm or cold) and darker stout craft beers will be popular. Keeping a local, seasonal menu featuring items and flavors such as apple, pumpkin, butternut squash, pecan, cinnamon, and nutmeg will keep your guests deliciously satisfied!
