September is the most popular month of the year for having a wedding. So that means there will be lots of special gatherings leading up to the big day with wedding showers and bachelorette parties. And for years to come, the happy couple will be celebrating their anniversary in September.
Here’s some amazing ideas to get you started on planning for fall’s celebrations of love.
- Navy and Burnt Orange is a Top Wedding Color Combo
Just because the leaves are changing to reds and yellows doesn’t mean that your wedding colors must match. We’re seeing a lot of navy being combined with burnt orange in invitation designs, flower bouquets, and linens. Blues and oranges are complementary colors so navy and burnt orange are beautiful shades to bring together.
