I voted traditional. When I think of Fall I think of late Aug, Sept, early Oct. My birthday is Nov 10th and growing up there was always snow on the ground. Always. Now that I'm in Albany that's not so true anymore, but it's still Winter to me.

I think early Nov. would still be good for the fall colors. Pumpkin themes are still out and about till end of Nov. but classical would still be nice at that time of year.

I am a total beach girl, so I'm even surprised by my own vote but I went with the fall colors. I just love those.

I would have loved to do a fall theme if we could've pulled off a wedding by this autumn...but fall in January just doesn't work! At any rate, I am biased.

I think a Fall them would be great. It is truly fall that time on year on Long Island and really no chance of any snow. It is right around the time that it starts getting really chilly here! The dark reds, oranges etc would look great. That's just my

I'm a total beach girl too, but Nov on the east coast doesn't envoke a beach theme to me. I would go traditional or fall.
The fall colors are so pretty!!!

I chose the 1st and the last. I say, "Fall on the Beach". I'd do a mixture of beach and fall touches. like a large conch as the cornucopia, you know fill it with fall things. Fall leaves and sand *swoon*

I voted classic. I'm just not big on themes.

I think it can look very pretty if done subtly, but there is such a fine I'd rather avoid it than cross than line

Then again, some people love the all out theme thing... It just doesn't do it for me.

I think a fall colour scheme could be very pretty, but I'd be wary of pumpkins & the like.

I voted for Fall. My b-day is Nov 10 and it's still fallish out. (I think) We don't have seasons here...

The fall colors are just beautiful.

Ironic... I had a late September wedding with a beach theme, and I voted autumn!

I was torn between autumn and classic. Where is the wedding (I'm guessing LI, but where exactly)? If there's a fall foliage landscape, a fall theme would be nice.

I voted classic, but think you can go with some falls things, I just wouldn't go way too crazy with a theme. Like I would pick on color as an accent that is definitely not fall, especially since your going with a pink dress for yourself, weren't you?

I picked the fall theme...if I could have pulled off a wedding in a short amount of time (I know six months isn't really that short) I wanted a fall theme...I would probably use more so the fall "nature" type things (like leaves, grape vines, etc) and stay away from the cornicopias and things like that.
