VENUE STYLING 55 AUTUMN LEAVES Kate says, “Embrace the darker night and warm rich colour pallets while bringing in a mixture of textiles to add depth. Natural, earthy colours such as stone, champagne and rust are coming through for weddings with dark green still making an appearance. It’s all about deep purple for 2024.” Anne says, “It's the season of fallen leaves, with deep red, orange, brown, copper and gold shades. Wooden furniture will elevate the natural autumnal colours with unlimited tones, textures, shades and grains. Reclaimed wooden trestle tables are impressive coupled with beautifully worn vintage mix-and-match chairs that can accentuate nature’s pallet.” Caroline says, “Carry the vibrancy of nature this time of year through your design with an eclectic mix of colours. You can bring in the season’s richness by layering different textures, such as velvet, within your table place settings or even as the ribbons bind your bouquets. Use elegant chandeliers, fairylights, candles and lanterns to create a romantic atmosphere as the sun sets.” Rebecca says, “Festoon lighting, fire pits and lanterns can create a great outdoor feature at a minimal hire cost, ensuring guests can stay out and use other parts of the venue. An apple crate of throws can also ensure a cosy night by the fire pit.” Anne says, “The Halloween season offers the perfect opportunity for an alternative, edgy and dramatic look. There can be something ominous about vintage apothecary bottles. Resembling potion bottles are great for flower displays or as small props and decorations. With dripping candles, black linens and moody florals, you can forget tradition and give your guests a spooktacular day.” www.jamesdavidson.co.uk www.romylawrencephotography.com www.ampersandmemories.com www.photosbyjim.co.uk
