Peak wedding season typically includes September and October for a reason — fall weddings are gorgeous. There’s an abundance of seasonal decor options (pumpkins, duh!), the changing leaves on trees make for a great backdrop, and autumnal colors are straight-up dreamy. The latter also applies to the season’s best available flowers!
While you can still incorporate wedding flowers that aren’t affected by the changing seasons — such as hydrangeas, orchids, roses and lilies — there’s a wide variety of flowers that do bloom exclusively throughout September, October and November.
