The leaves are changing, and the air is getting that little bit more crisp. As the seasons change, we see a shift in weddings at Victoria Warehouse. Gone are the spring bouquets and pastel colours, replaced by burnt orange hues and wildflower arrangements.
We love a good spring or summer wedding, but there’s something about the autumn aesthetic that feels right at home at Victoria Warehouse’s industrial event spaces.
To celebrate the new season, we’re taking a deep dive into what’s trending in the world of weddings, rounding up the best autumn weddings trends to inspire your planning.
Seasonal bouquets
As the seasons change, rich oranges and reds typically take centre stage in autumnal wedding bouquets.
Dried flowers are a popular seasonal take on bridal florals, with some opting to add in dried grasses and seed pods for a more rustic twist.
If you have no idea where to start when it comes to finding the very best Manchester wedding suppliers, we’ve got our own recommended suppliers list that we’d be happy to share with you, featuring a range of expert local businesses.
Autumn flavours
As the seasons change, wedding food and beverages can be tweaked to cater to both the colder weather, and a more autumnal palate.
Couples tying the knot in autumn might offer warming drinks to their guests – such as a mulled cider or wine – and a sit-down dinner filled with comforting winter warmers, such as warming soups or hearty pies.
At Victoria Warehouse, our in-house catering team works closely with our couples to make sure that food and drink is personalised down to the letter – including with seasonal tweaks.
Refreshed colour schemes
The typical autumn colour palette is one of reds, oranges, and browns, and we’ve hosted plenty of these colourways at Victoria Warehouse. But other hues that really pop in the ‘ber months include jewel tones and rich plum or rust shades.
Since we’re a blank canvas venue, we’re able to dress up our event spaces exactly how our couples want them – including personalising colour schemes. Just get in touch for a consultation and we can show you all the ways you’re able to make your day your own.
Smaller guest lists
Everyone knows that the autumn and winter months are all about getting cosy with your loved ones. You can create this kind of feel on your wedding day by curating a smaller guest list, and opting for a small or mid-sized wedding venue.
Victoria Warehouse is home to multiple event spaces that can cater to varied wedding sizes, so if a smaller, cosy wedding is your thing, we can make it happen for you.
If you’re still hunting for more autumn wedding inspiration, or you’re in the market for a unique Manchester wedding venue, our Autumn Wedding Open Evening is happening on Thursday 23rd October, 5pm-8pm. All you need to do is register and turn up, and we’ll be ready and waiting to give you the scoop on Victoria Warehouse weddings.
