There’s something about fall light coming through the windows at The Lageret. It catches the wood floors, warms the brick, and makes you want to stay awhile.
This season, Ari and Dillon, Kristen and Nick, and Shannon and Joseph each brought their own vision to the space. From flowing ivory draping to rust-colored florals and vintage-inspired details, these three weddings offer a little inspiration for making a fall celebration feel like you.
Ari + Dillon: Forest Green & Flowing Ivory
Ari and Dillon’s late September wedding paired rich greens with soft ivory and an abundance of greenery. Dillon’s green suit and Ari’s lace gown fit beautifully into that palette, with white flowers bringing everything together.
For their ceremony, ivory fabric swept between the beams and fell to the floor, framing the space with soft folds. Greenery climbed alongside the draping, and candles lined the base. Against the exposed brick and timber, the effect was romantic and welcoming.
That feeling carried into the reception. Green runners stretched across wood tables, while candles and arrangements of white flowers added warmth. Above the head table, hanging greenery and glass globes drew the eye upward.
Their portraits tell another part of the story: a quiet moment beside the windows, sunshine filtering through the trees, and the two of them laughing together outside.
Kristen + Nick: Rust Tones & Personal Touches
Kristen and Nick brought a beautiful autumn palette to their October wedding. Rust-colored wedding party attire complemented bouquets filled with white, peach, and warm golden-brown flowers.
Their ceremony backdrop let the brick remain part of the design. Branches of greenery reached across the wall, with clusters of candles below. It was a lovely example of how a few thoughtful elements can frame the place where you exchange your vows.
Outside, the deck’s brick wall provided a backdrop for their first look and portraits together. Later, they stepped into the evening light for photos filled with movement, laughter, and a few twirls.
At the reception, small floral arrangements brought color to the tables beneath the string lights. One especially sweet detail: table numbers featuring childhood photos of the couple. Those little glimpses into their lives made the celebration feel even more personal.
Shannon + Joseph: Chocolate Tones & Vintage Romance
Shannon and Joseph’s October celebration brought together chocolate brown, copper, and soft neutrals. Mixed solid and patterned wedding party dresses added depth to the palette, while brown suits tied the look together.
Shannon’s lace gown and veil echoed the romantic feel of the day. Her bouquet combined creamy blooms with warm autumn accents and textured greenery—a beautiful complement to the colors around her.
Vintage-style gold frames, delicate glassware, taper candles, and softly draped fabric carried that feeling into the reception. Their sweetheart table was especially inviting, with flowers and candlelight set against the brick.
Throughout the gallery, there are moments that make you pause: a first look, an embrace, a little one reaching toward the bride. Alongside all the carefully chosen details, these are the photographs that tell the story of the people being celebrated.
A Fall Wedding That Feels Like You
These three celebrations shared a season and a setting, with each couple bringing something different to both.
Perhaps you’re drawn to sweeping draping and white flowers. Maybe it’s a rich autumn palette, vintage details, or photographs of the two of you growing up tucked onto the reception tables. Start with the things you love, and let your day take shape from there.
We’re grateful to Ari and Dillon, Kristen and Nick, and Shannon and Joseph for sharing these beautiful days with us.
