Planning an autumn wedding in the UK means embracing the beautiful, rich colours of the season, cosy styling and is an opportunity to get creative with the earthy tones, seasonal blooms and interesting textures that autumn brings. Autumn wedding signs are not only a practical tool to help guests navigate your celebration, but when designed well, they can make a striking impact, adding something a little special to your autumn wedding décor and styling. As for autumn wedding menus, they help finish off your place settings and tablescape while adding a personal touch to your wedding tables.
What’s the point in hiring a designer?
When you work with a stationery designer, you get more than just signs and menus — you get a full package of original artwork, created specifically for your wedding. A designer, such as myself, ensures everything feels consistent, with coherent colours and styling across your entire wedding - from your invitations to signs and table stationery for the day of your wedding. Incorporating hand-painted illustrations makes each details such as wax seals or name tags give a luxury finish. Aside from the aesthetics, hiring a designer to handle the print ensures all the graphics and colours are good quality and not pixelated, that suitable card stock is used for the design and everything is the correct size - which can save you time and stress in the long run if you are unfamiliar with printing artwork.
Autumn Wedding Signs
So, why have I created signs and stationery with autumn weddings in mind? When perusing the internet, looking for autumn wedding stationery, everything felt the same, generic and lacked personality or true individuality. I could find little that had a luxury feel or was highly personalised, so I set about designing a new autumn weddings collection, to add a sprinkle of luxury and individuality to autumn wedding styling.
You will find a selection of menus, place cards and bundles of signs to help your wedding stationery budget go further.
Sienna Autumn Wedding Sign Bundle with Flowers
The ‘Sienna Wedding Sign Bundle’ pairs with a matching invitation design and features a vibrant border of burnt orange watercolour flowers and foliage. This curated autumn wedding sign bundle includes four signs: a welcome sign, table plan, order of events board and cocktail sign. It also includes beautiful custom artwork, making it a great option for couples that want to personalise their wedding signs without going fully bespoke. You can enjoy a custom venue illustration, signature cocktail design and watercolour illustrations for your order of the day board.
Burgundy Wedding Sign Bundle
While most of my work features watercolour illustrations, floral or whimsical details, I wanted to create something for those clients looking for simple autumn wedding ideas - signage that is striking and eye-catching but not too much… Burgundy Wedding Sign Package includes a welcome sign, order of events board and table plan, all printed on sturdy foam board and shown with a rich, burgundy background just perfect for autumn weddings. These signs can be displayed on easels, propped up, or finished with drilled holes for hanging (please ask if you require this service). Here the striking block colour does all the talking, and this is one of those designs where we find beauty in simplicity. Explore my autumn weddings collection further and you’ll find other beautiful shades including emerald green, burnt orange and dusty rose, to match other seasonal palettes.
Autumn Wedding Menus
Burgundy striped menu with bow
Modern, playful and full of character, this Burgundy Striped Wedding Menu features a doodled bow and free-flowing cursive font. It’s perfect for couples who want a hand-drawn, illustrated aesthetic for their stationery, and is the perfect balance of playful and plush.
Illustrated Wedding Menus
Illustrated wedding menus are a hot trend right now. My clients love taking personalisation to the next level with hand painted borders, illustrated ingredients and a bespoke menu design. This particular design features a colourful illustrated border with herbs, vegetables, desserts, flowers and drinks to accompany your wedding menu. Combine these hand painted elements with watercolour backgrounds, stripes or patterns for that painterly, artisan style.
Aurelia Floral Wedding Menus with Wax Seals
Classic and elegant, the Aurelia Floral Wedding Menu blends a traditional, luxurious aesthetic with the practicality of a guest name tag and personalised menu choices. The wax seal design can be personalised with lots of wax colours and botanical stamps available, or I can have a custom stamp made just for you.
Autumn Wedding Menus with Name Tags
With a striking background colour, these autumn wedding menus are ideal for couples that don’t want the menus to be overly fussy. Perhaps they are going big on centre pieces or patterned napkins and want the menus to be simple yet chic. Available in a range of colours including burgundy, moss green and burnt orange, you will also find sign bundles in matching colours to complete the look. Each menu is finished with a hand poured wax seal and guest name tag.
