If you plan to hold a wedding in the beautiful Harrisburg autumn, incorporate the distinctive looks, colors and textures of this vivid and unique season into your décor.
Fallen leaves in a wide array of colors are among the most notable features of fall and can be spotted throughout the Northeast in varying shades, adding to the richness of the season. Top each platter at your reception tables with a single leaf, whether real or artificial, in a distinctively autumnal color. Fill a hurricane lamp with loose, colorful leaves surrounding a center candle, or fill a large vase not with floral blossoms but instead with a leafy branch.
Seasonal vegetables define the colors and traits of the season while adding an air of freshness and earthiness to your décor. Fill a glass bowl with artichokes as a centerpiece or use them individually to display place cards. Hang garlands of miniature pumpkins and gourds at your reception venue; cut holes directly through the vegetables’ centers, then string them on a long piece of sisal rope.
Consider interspersing dried grass into floral arrangements. Display seasonal flowers in a distinctively fall container made by hollowing out a large pumpkin; arrange flowers to create a rounded shape atop the pumpkin. As an alternative to a traditional floral bouquet, carry one incorporating grasses or leaves, and have your flower girl sprinkle colorful autumn leaves along the aisle.
