| Color Palettes What is your wedding color palette? Ask for opinions on which colors go well together. Discuss ways you will apply the color palette to other wedding day aspects (program covers, flowers, favors, linen, etc.). |

I am of the opinion that you can do any color, any time. I think it would look really good paired with brown!

Even though it might not be a common color for the fall...it's your wedding...choose the colors that YOU want! I think pairing it with a brown would make it "less" spring or summer...good around on theknot.com and flickr.com and you'll find tons of images that will help!!!

Put your FI and the GM in brown suits with lavender ties or vests or pocket squares. Or Give the BM brown shawls to wear since it will be fall and possibly cool/cold depending on where the wedding is. You can wrap your flower stems in brown ribbon.

I was going to suggest brown as well!
As for attire, would brown ties/vests work with the tuxes?

I don't want to do brown tuxes cuz it reminds me of my parents wedding! LOL But I like some of the other ideas! Thanks!

My wedding colors were Lavander, white and silver. This is how I did it...
MOH - Lavander dress/silver jewelry
Junior bridesmaid & flower girl - lavander and white dress
The little girl walking next to ring bearer (sp?) white dress
The men/boys went with black tuxedos and silver vest/ties....
So you can do something like a lavander dress for the bridesmaids with brown as detail and the GM can go with black tuxedo and brown vest.
Or, brown dresses with lavander accents and black tuxedos with lavander vest/tie
