I've always had a summer wedding in mind, with a bright, warm colour theme and lots of sunny outdoor pictures afterwards. As the end of the year's drawing closer I'm remembering how much I love the changing colours of autumn and am thinking how lovely it would be to have an autumn/winter/christmassy wedding! Anyone else started thinking of this?

I'm getting married in January. The weather is usually dry, around 15/16 degrees here in the South East (yes really, I'm not kidding). The only time it's different is when we get unexpected snow, and we would be very happy with that.

We're getting married at the start of November as I had the exact same thought. I love the colours and the trees etc and just thought why not!

We are having an autumn wedding! All autumnal colours with navy blue. October 2019!
I originally thought September but decided on October as it was cheaper and the trees have better colours :) xx

Autumn and winter wedding are becoming so popular that my venue charge by day of the week rather than season. They were already fully booked for Saturdays in October next year so we settled on beginning of Sept.

We’re getting married 14th October 2019, it’ll be 4 years to the date of our first date & we usually have a pretty good October 🤞🤞 warm colours red, gold & I think navy blue suits for the grooms party 🙂

We got married bonfire night last year, autumn is my favourite time of the year! The colours where beautiful. We ran with the theme (cake in comments)
Also with a summer wedding you're praying for good weather where as for autumn/winter you can plan around the fact that you know it isn't going to be a hot day. There wasn't a drop of rain on our big day!

We had an autumn/winter one and got marries 12th November last year. The sunset is a great photo opportunity as long as you don't mind the cold, it rained, but I wasn't cold as my wedding dress was warm enough :)

It is exactly 1 year until my wedding, and can't wait (fingers crossed) for a crisp autumn wedding. With reds and oranges in the background of our wedding pictures. We have a blue and gold theme, which will hopefully look stunning against the autumn foliage. X

We got married on 7th December 2012. It snowed in the morning which was beautiful and by the afternoon it was bright sunshine and the snow had gone. We had Christmas baubles as part of the table decorations and had lots of lovely photographs by the Christmas tree at the hotel. Whatever you decide, your wedding day will be fabulous.

My wedding was always going to be spring bank or August, however due to one thing and another I’ve opted for an October one. - I love the autumn colours of rustic reds, sunburnt orange and yellow 😍 xxx

This sounds like my wedding lol! I always dreamed of an outdoor summer wedding, then when we was looking I started to think 'what if it rains' etc...roll on 2yrs later and we are now getting married in the middle of winter on NYE this year and I CANT WAIT!!!!!! Xxx

We are a November wedding (16th) in 2019, I love autumn/winter I'm not a fan of summer and my partner gets really bad hayfever in summer so it made more sense for ours to be in Autumn time. X

We are having a winter wedding. Our venue is a big Manor House with huge fireplaces etc, just beautiful in the winter. I also didn’t want to spend the whole planning process stressing about the weather. If you get married in the UK in the summer, you risk having to change plans last minute as it’s chucking it down with rain. I’m planning an inside, winter wedding so don’t have to factor in the weather

We had an October wedding and the weather was perfect! I wanted a summer wedding originally as I wanted a coral colour scheme but still had coral flowers and they tied in really well x

We got married in October 2 years ago we live autumn and wanted a wedding when it wasn't going to be overly warm so that everyone was comfortable in suits and dresses but also found whilst planning that an added bonus of an autumn wedding is you're not paying the premium on everything like you would a summer wedding (that was our experience anyway) xx

We get married in less than 2 weeks and the weather is lovely right now (although I can't say the same for 2 weeks time! Who knows!). But I'm prepared for bad weather, dresses are long and we have cover-ups and umbrellas just in case. We had a rubbish summer this year and all these poor people paid premium prices for a gorgeous sunny summer wedding and had cold rain. We'll have lots of autumn leaves, sparklers, spiced cider and pumpkins plus we saved ourselves some money by choosing out of season. I can't wait!
