Swarovski Crystal Artwork

One of the best ways to make your wedding have great style is to choose a motif. Having a special design around which to plan will help to make your entire event feel unified from top to bottom. For the fall, a lovely and simple wedding motif idea is autumn leaves.

You would be amazed at all of the ways there are to incorporate the autumn leaf theme into your wedding. As with any theme, the invitations are a good place to start. Choose a creamy invitation engraved with a small copper colored leaf on the top for a formal wedding. If your wedding is less traditional, a beautiful idea would be to use handmade paper that has real leaves embedded in it. Since it is too rough a surface for printing, it is usual to use a vellum overlayer for this type of invitation. A sheer organza ribbon in your wedding color can be used to attach the two layers. Such a lovely invitation is sure to make a great first impression on your wedding guests.

At the ceremony, rather than having the flower girl sprinkle rose petals, give her colorful leaves for tossing. You can get real leaves in autumn colors which have been preserved or make your own from paper. For the prettiest path, use an assortment of colors, such as deep orange, red, warm yellow, and soft browns. If you would like, some metallic painted leaves could be added into the mix for a formal wedding. Copper and bronze look especially nice.

A gorgeous idea for the bride’s bouquet would be to have it trimmed in a cuff of leaves. For a more rustic wedding, use the same preserved leaves as the flower girl tossed. If your wedding is more formal, use elegant embossed velvet leaves in a regal purple color. Echo this concept in the bridesmaids’ bouquets by mixing a few leaves into the flowers for unique and seasonal arrangements.

The bride can even wear her wedding motif. A fabulous idea is to choose bridal jewelry that is handcrafted using beautiful Swarovski crystal leaves. One large leaf makes a stunning statement as a pendant, and if you add in a matching pair of earrings, you will have the perfect fall crystal bridal jewelry set. The crystal leaves are available not only in clear crystals, but also in several warm colors, which would be incredible for the bridesmaid jewelry gifts.

Moving on to the reception, you can have a lot of fun designing around an autumn leaf motif. Welcome your guests with their names written on paper leaves in gold ink instead of the standard tent escort cards. Suspend each leaf from a gold painted branch. You can make your own tabletop “tree” by planting branches into a quick set concrete poured into a pretty base like a flowerpot. It is a stylish alternative to the typical escort card.

The fall leaf theme can also go home with your guests in the form of a special wedding favor. A great parting gift would be a box of maple candies in the shape of maple leaves. Or make your own custom leaf candy using meltable white chocolate dyed in your wedding colors and poured into leaf shaped molds. Place a set of candy into a small gold box lined with a gold flecked piece of tissue paper, tie it with a ribbon in your wedding color, and tie a brief note to the box written on (what else?) a paper leaf. It will make the perfect favor for an autumn leaf theme wedding.
