Fall Wedding Cakes

So you're planning your fall wedding? First of all, congratulations! Of course you've thought of the dress, the colors, the flowers, the invitations… And now it's time to think about the fall themed wedding cake. So where do you start?

First of all you need to decide the main color scheme for your fall themed wedding. Fall wedding colors are most identifiable as being vivid, vibrant and warm within the traditional wedding color palettes. In keeping with the seasonal theme popular fall wedding colors include warming burgundies, claret reds, coppers, olive greens, and dark pinks. Once you have chosen your color scheme you will both be ready to decide how to best decorate your fall themed wedding cake.

Here are some great ideas to help get you and your intended start thinking about the perfect way to decorate your fall themed wedding cake…

Fall Wedding Cakes – Leaves Petals and Fronds

As we all know one of the most identifiable aspects of the fall season is the fact that leaves change color and drop from the trees in a flurry of beautiful hues. Why not think about using this idea to decorate your fall themed wedding cake? The main factor to remember with this simple idea is that you can use any color you want to link into the chosen color scheme, as leaves are naturally so many different tones at this time of year. Leaves can be crafted out of icing to make elegant edible cake decorations. You could also choose to ask your wedding cake decorator to use the silhouette of leaves and fronds as stencils to create a fabulous interlinking pattern on the surface of your wedding cake. You could even choose to go for metallic-dipped replicas as removable keepsakes and give these leaves away as favors for the guests who attend your special day.

Fall Wedding Cakes – Wicker and Flowers

A wonderfully simple and natural method to choose for decorating your fall themed wedding cake is to use natural wicker. This elegant and adaptable material can be used in many different ways, including entwining the wicker into shapes and incorporating flowers into the design. Autumn flowers are beginning to get warmer, in keeping with the season, and can provide a wonderful contrast when used in this way. Autumnal flowers are often grouped together in a variety of shapes and sizes, just like the plants that we see growing and changing around at this time of year. When used alongside traditional rustic wood or elegantly entwined wicker these beautiful flowers will instantly become striking and delicate decorations for your fall themed wedding cake.

Fall Themed Wedding Cakes – Perfect Pumpkins

The use of pumpkin images and symbols within your fall themed wedding cake is more popular than you might first think. The key here is to focus on being delicate, and really using the color the natural pumpkin offers to best effect. Think about using miniature replicas used sparingly on the top of your wedding cake surrounded by glittering ribbon or sparkling edible sugaring. This is a very fun and easy way to choose to decorate your fall themed wedding cake on your special day.
