One of my favorite seasons is finally here and it’s actually feeling like it too. I was wearing shorts last week! Today is such a cool crisp day and I’m loving it. I feel like I’m slowly coming out of the funk I’ve been in these past few weeks and this weather is definitely helping. And hopefully November will bring some good things our way and we can all start to feel a little more positive about the future. For now, let’s all enjoy the gorgeous colors nature is giving us and breathe in the fresh fall air.

Autumn is a time of renewal. A time when we shed the layers we need to let go in order to feel fresh. A brisk undressing of sorts. Everyone has their own way of doing this. Some spend a lot of time alone. Others explore the world around them. But what matters most is that you’re true to YOU. Invest in your happiness and allow the magic of your soul to be free. Seasonal changes help us to reinvent who we are and rebrand our perspective. A new journey lies ahead… and it’s time to jump in and feel alive.

Having a wedding on Halloween can be a lot of fun. But just because its a holiday you don’t have to necessarily keep it themed. Incorporating orange, black, and other autumn hues can be enough to keep the vibe alive. Be careful not to get too literal or it can turn out like a kids Halloween party and not a wedding.

Just don’t forget what the day means to you and try not to lose sight what is really important. Keep it simple and classy and everything should work out fine. Take cues from this well loved holiday and add fun elements through decor, text, and color and everything will fall into place. Creating a feeling of romance, whimsy, and mystery are perfect undertones for a spectacular event.

Here are some good examples I came across that should bring you inspiration, not just for a Halloween styled wedding but the fall season as well. Enjoy!
