Fall Wedding Invitations
Weddings are one of the most important social events in every human culture. In the past, they united not only a man and a woman, but their families, and even villages, countries or kingdoms as well.
Although not used as a political tool anymore, weddings are still the best of social events. Everybody dresses and acts as best as they can, and follows a set of rituals where everybody, specially the bride and the groom, are assigned certain rules to follow. These vary from country to country and from religion to religion, but they’re always there.
In the past, one of the most important aspects of a wedding was the day or season when it happened. There were days that were considered lucky for getting married and days that were considered unlucky for a ceremony. In addition, people thought that the day of the wedding could influence future events, like the harvest, or the weather.
While we don’t believe in those things anymore, there is a tendency to move to a more natural lifestyle. This in turn has influenced weddings. Some people are now having weddings in a natural surrounding, with simpler, more sober decorations, or with motives that are related to nature.
If that seems attractive to you, then you might consider fall wedding invitations, if you’re getting married in the months of September, October, or November. Fall wedding invitations are classy and elegant, yet simple and natural at the same time.
Fall wedding invitations also carry a symbolism that’s very pertinent to marriage: The discarding of previous times, in this case, the life of a bachelor. Because of this, fall wedding invitations mark the end of single life, preparing both the bride and the groom for a life where they’ll be together through the hardships of winter and the beauty of spring.
Because of their symbolism of end of life, fall wedding invitations can also be a homage to a special relative that passed away but that the couple would have wished to have with them in the wedding.
The main motive of most fall wedding invitations is a dry leaf, which can transform almost all invitations into fall wedding invitations. Forests with floors covered with leaves and trees that are losing their leaves can also be good motives for fall wedding invitations, although they tend to be a bit more expensive.
Finally, fall wedding invitations are also a good option if your wedding colors are brown or red. They will match perfectly and will impress your guests.
