A beautiful strapless a-line dress with unique black accents by Sophia Tolli is paired with strapless empire waisted dresses in black pinstripe by BCBG Max Azris. Before the spine tingling night, the guests receive simple black and white invitations that use Old English calligraphy and gothic designs to create a Halloweeny feel. The tables are decorated with orange and black linens to reflect a perfect Halloween palette. Spooky black candleabras are used to light the tables. The guests can savour a slice of a simple square cake with off-set tiers that is decorated in white, black, and orange. And as an added bonus, a table filled with all kinds of the happy couple's favourite treats is there for the guests to indulge their sweet tooth. This is definitely a wedding that your guests will remember ... forever!

A white halter dress by Galina at David's Bridal is accented by a brown tea length halter dress by BCBG at Nordstroms and the groomsmen are in brown suits to match. The guests are invited by the delivery of gorgeous brown and ivory invitations that are accented with red poppies for a bit of flair. The ceremony takes place in a winery with beautiful stone walls that is decorated with an elegant red carpet and simple, yet classic, white chair covers with brown bows. The outdoor reception uses beautiful red roses for centerpieces and simple ivory linens to give the celebration a lighter atmosphere. And finally, as a traditional wedding cake alternative, Jamaican Rum cakes (a favourite) with brown drizzle icing are served.

It's the Little Touches ...

These simple, yet gorgeous, candles with red rose petals are a great way to both accent and light up an outdoor reception.

Aren't these favor boxes just the cutest? Perfect for a Brown and Red themed wedding AND perfect for the fall!
