The Five Best Flowers for a Fall Bouquet

When the leaves start to turn, the air carries that unmistakable crispness, and pumpkin spice season hits, fall weddings at the Historic Hampton House 1908 take on an extra layer of romance. The warm tones of the season pair beautifully with the charm of our historic home, creating an unforgettable backdrop for your special day. And nothing ties it all together quite like the perfect bouquet.

Here are five of the best flowers to include in your fall wedding bouquet:

1. Dahlias

Known for their rich, bold colors, dahlias are a fall favorite. From deep burgundy to burnt orange, their dramatic petals bring both texture and vibrancy. In the glow of the Hampton House Pavilion, dahlias practically shimmer against candlelight and autumn décor.

2. Roses

A timeless choice, roses transition beautifully into fall with shades like amber, blush, and crimson. Paired with greenery, they create a bouquet that feels both classic and seasonal—perfect for photos on the wraparound porch or garden lawn.

3. Chrysanthemums

Mums are the quintessential fall flower. Their layered petals and variety of colors make them a versatile option for bouquets. Whether you’re going for rustic charm or elegant sophistication, chrysanthemums fit seamlessly into the Historic Hampton House setting.

4. Sunflowers

For a more playful, cheerful bouquet, sunflowers bring warmth and brightness to autumn arrangements. Against the vintage white exterior of the Hampton House, their golden hue pops in photos, making them a wonderful choice for brides who want a lively fall aesthetic.

5. Calla Lilies

Elegant and modern, calla lilies in shades of plum, orange, or ivory add a sleek touch to fall bouquets. Their unique shape contrasts beautifully with fuller blooms like dahlias or roses, creating balance and sophistication for your walk down the aisle.
