Fall is a beautiful time of the year to get married. There are tons of seasonal details—hay bales, scarecrows, leaves changing color—that are part of what makes fall so exciting, but even if you’re a die-hard pumpkin spice latte fan, having your wedding look like the Halloween pop-up store at the mall might not exactly be your thing. Thanks to Texas-based photographer Allison Jeffers and a talented team of vendors, we’re sharing some amazing fall wedding ideas that are both elegant and romantic, without a single ounce of orange (okay, except for the giraffes!).

Get ready to fall in love with these stylish fall wedding ideas for the modern couple.

Blush and burgundy is a gorgeous color combo for any time of the year, but we especially love it for fall weddings. This romantic color palette pairs well with in-season flowers and looks beautiful with gold or rose gold accents.
