Colors play a huge role when it comes to weddings, and bridemaid dresses are no exception. So much so that some brides and her wedding party put as much thought and consideration into the choosing the specific color and look for bridesmaid dresses, as they do to the bride’s wedding gown. So, we thought we’d ask our team for their opinions and share them here for your consideration.

Peighton Ballant: Maroon has been one of my favorite colors not just for fall, but for anytime and a deep burgundy in the fall is lovely. 

Christiana Bullard: Since I am more traditional, I like a classic taupe color, however I’ve seen some really nice plum options that I would also consider for the fall season. 

Shanna Paris: I love Fall weddings because the jewel and dark tones like navy that photograph so well and compliment traditional white wedding dresses. This season, I’ve really enjoyed seeing a shade of burgundy that is a bit brighter than a traditional deep red as it adds a pop of vibrance that is appealing and has been incorporated into some stunning floral bouquets. 

Michelle Edmiston: My favorite color is a soft terracotta because it photographs so well and compliments the darker shades of many fall palettes.  

David Osmola: I like the various shades of purple. They photograph well and provide a great backdrop for most color schemes.

Carissa Llewellyn-Burns: For me, it’s a toss-up between a rich burgundy or deep eggplant. I really like the jewel tones we’ve been seeing for this season’s color schemes.

Kristen Berry: I’m a big fan of blush tones, like a dusty rose or terracotta, for Fall. It looks really good on almost everyone and makes a great color backdrop for floral arrangements.

So, there you have it! Our team’s opinion on the colors they’ve seen that work exceptionally well for Fall weddings. Still not sure? Start by considering the time of day; whether your ceremony is indoor or outdoor; your floral arrangement choices; what photography set-up options at the venue will be as a good place to start.
