In autumn, we celebrate abundance and harvest festivals, bathing in soft light. It's time for luxury and splendor with an explosion of colors and scents. Create a chic autumn wedding with fine fabrics, bold textures, exquisite food, and warm candlelight. The era of festival weddings is over; now, we opt for stylish and glamorous. Let this wedding report inspire you, and follow my tips for a luxurious autumn wedding.
An autumn wedding thrives on luxurious fabrics. One of the first "Do's" is to embrace lush fabrics and refined textures. Draw inspiration from this beautiful Russian bride and her designer wedding dress. Combine long sleeves with a surprisingly deep back neckline and customize the outfit to your liking with striking stiletto ankle boots. Oh yes, a sexy side slit is always photogenic. For the groom, dark colors and a tailored suit made of fine wool, such as merino or cashmere. Bridesmaids? Crown them with a chic faux fur hat instead of a flower wreath. How sweet is that! 'Don't': Shivering is never charming. Choose comfort and elegance.

Unpredictable and incredibly magical autumn light. Since the sun is relatively low in the sky for much of the day, its rays provide a soft and warm light that acts as a natural filter. 'Don't': Don't start too early because mornings are often cool, damp, and cloudy. Start your day calmly and enjoy. 'Do's': Plan group photos and the love-shooting when it's still bright outside.
