As summer is peak wedding time, venues and caterers tend to up their prices, as they realise they have a captive audience of couples that want to get married on a glorious summer’s day. Prices are generally lower in autumn, meaning your budget can be stretched to include those little, added extras that will complete your day.<\/p>\n
While you appreciate the savings in the run-up to the big day, you\u2019ll reap the benefits of this come the wedding day itself, when you\u2019ve invested that sliver of extra cash in a dessert table, an ice cream van, or just about anything you like!<\/p>\n
You\u2019ll have a glorious backdrop<\/strong><\/h2>\nIt\u2019 not unlikely that it\u2019s the backdrop that first springs to mind when the words \u2018autumn wedding\u2019 are mentioned. While spring and summer weddings make a big deal of everything being in bloom, there\u2019s a world of beauty to be enjoyed when it comes to the cacophony of colours associated with autumn.<\/p>\n
A country house hotel venue with plenty of tree-lined walkways is the perfect setting for an autumn wedding that\u2019ll take advantage of the season\u2019s distinctive colour – just make sure you have a professional photo shoot to make the most of it.<\/p>\n
You could even play up to the season by opting for a slightly different look for your wedding clothes. Opting for autumnal shades in either the groom\u2019s suit or the bride\u2019s dress is a fun way to provide your wedding with a splash of something different while paying homage to the season.<\/p>\n

If you value spontaneity, then this is less than ideal, and it means that summer weddings have to be booked years in advance.<\/p>\n
People\u2019s social calendars tend to be less full once the leaves turn brown and summer\u2019s pace begins to slow, so an autumn wedding date could be the perfect solution to ensure that your venue will be packed with the people who mean most to you and your other half.<\/p>\n
You can go for a cosy aesthetic<\/strong><\/h2>\nSummertime weddings can often be sweltering, and no matter how beautiful the service is, an overheated room can soon lead to guests feeling uncomfortable, not to mention the bride! A late autumn wedding with the nights drawing in will be significantly cooler and more intimate – especially once the sun sets and the party really gets started.<\/p>\n
Adding fire pits and chimineas to keep things toasty on a crisp autumn evening will also add to this intimate feel, and in terms of catering, you could focus on hearty, warming food like soup, roast beef and chestnuts to fit an autumnal ceremony perfectly.<\/p>\n
