Fall Wedding Reception Centerpiece Ideas

Far too often I see brides turning their nose up at the idea of a fall wedding for the sole reason that they don't like the old fashion cornucopia. My response? Don't use a cornucopia. Use your imagination instead in taking advantage of the many advantages of a fall wedding.

Instead of the classic cornucopia, decorate your reception tables with candles. A single candle in a champagne glass or a Merlot wine gel candle with a wine charm on the base makes a simple yet tasteful centerpiece for a fall wedding. Or choose a taller gel candle with a smaller bouquet of your wedding flowers to surround its base.

Or consider using a ceramic tea pot warmed with a tea light as your fall wedding reception centerpiece with an assortment of tea's adding fragrance to your reception and warmth to your guests. Of course, if you choose this route, don't forget to send your guests home with tea favors. As a matter of fact, a great combination would be to choose loose tea (they will give you the best fragrance because they are the freshest) and then provide all of your guests a silken tea infuser!
