Autumn Themed Wedding - Finding A Reception Venue And The Right Food Menu
The autumn is the second most popular wedding season right after the summer. And there are good reasons for this: The weather is still warm, the nature shines golden, the days are getting shorter and people try to be home early for a comfy evening with their family.
It is the perfect time for a romantic wedding
Reception Setting
The fall is the time to harvest the fields, to fill the granaries and to enjoy the abundance of fruits available. Good venues for the wedding reception are buildings like mills, barns, castles, old churches, -buildings that reflect the season. Keep an eye out for old and dark places that are shining warmth. The Colors of your wedding should reflect this, too. Warm and rich colors like yellow, brown, gold, burgundy, orange and similar colors are great for an autumn wedding theme. And in case the weather of the region you want to celebrate your wedding allows it you can go for an outside wedding. Parks, flower gardens, fruit plantations and alike can offer an extraordinary setting for your big day.
Food Menu
You really have a lot of adequate food to choose from when you are celebrating an autumn-themed wedding. Strong and rich are the keywords here. Start with a potato soup (maybe from a hollowed out pumpkin?). For the main course go with roast-beef, roasted turkey, suckling pig, salad, potatoes, corncobs and other delicious food of the season. You can use ingredients like honey to give your meal a golden and sweet autumn-touch, too. And ask your caterer what his suggestions are for a typical autumn feast, he sure will have some more good ideas. As desserts you could serve pumpkin pie, hazelnut cookies, maple pies, candied pears/apples or vanilla ice with honey. Yummy!
