Today I'm looking at Autumn flowers ... which is great timing as you may well be planning your Autumn wedding now .. I know I've had several stationery enquiries for Autumnal wedding stationery over the last couple of weeks.
I love Autumn colours - burgundys, plums, rusts, browns and dark greens are so evocative and cosy looking and these colours can also be incorporated in to your flowers.
Below are my favourites of the flowers which are in season for Autumn but obviously check with your florist as they will have many more options.
Dahlia
Dahlias are as wonderful for the autumn as they are for summer coming in some beautiful deep burgundy and russet colours. I like 'overflowing' bouquets for Autumn and these are perfect.
Berries
Perfect to add a really seasonal touch to your bouquet or arrangements - I especially love blackberries in bouquets.

Poppies
A pop of red at an Autumn wedding is always lovely and poppies are perfect for this.
Sunflowers
Hands up I've never been a big fan of sunflowers .. a bit too brash somehow. But recently I'm changing my opinion ... done in an unstructured wild flower way I've seen wedding bouquets with sunflowers which have looked absolutely beautiful. Its a definite end of summer harvest feel that I can really imagine in a barn wedding with lots of haybales and local cider!
