Fall is the harvest time for fruits, a time of maturity and thanksgiving. The color of burgundy, purple, orange and yellow fill the atmosphere with warmth and joy.

When it comes to deciding your wedding reception centerpieces, you have a wide variety of natural charms that can highlight your wedding night.

If you are thinking of flower arrangement for your wedding centerpieces, there are a lot of flower choices.  A mixture of orange, yellow and red Roses, Gerbera Daisies or Asiatic Lilies plus some field flowers will make an elegant centerpiece. Red and orange Carnations, rust color Calla Lilies paired with dried curly Willow Branches are also great choices. For an tasteful touch, try adding some silver ribbons with your mixture of pink, light purple and beige color flowers.

Candles are also popular wedding centerpieces choice. Taper candles, pillar candles and tea light candles all match well with autumn flowers. Again, you can use candles in autumn colors to make the fall wedding theme stand out. You can buy some autumn leave tea light candles (see picture below) for your centerpiece, they are so special and beautiful! Of course, floating candles also make spectacular wedding centerpiece. Add orange and red color petals in the water and beside the glass bowl create a centerpiece with warmth.

Anything to go with the flowers and candles? Try Celastrus and Physalis Alkekengi (Chinese Lantern Plant). Berries and crab apples are also popular decorations in the fall season. Dry autumn leaves also make beautiful decorations. An easy way to touch up the leaves is to spray some silver, gold or metallic purple paint on the leaves. If your wedding is close to Halloween, you can even use a pumpkin-shaped vase for flowers and baby pumpkin to decorate around your flowers or candles.
