Cozy Fall Wedding Inspo
Lindsey Maree
The leaves are starting to change, pumpkin spice lattes are back, and the air is getting cooler. You know what that means— the fall season is near! If you're planning a fall wedding and want to infuse it with all of the cozy feels of the season, we've got you covered! Add a touch of autumn to your special day with tasteful decor, seasonal comfort food and drinks, and more. Get inspired by previous fall weddings at Rock Island Lake Club.
Find a Foliage-Filled Setting
The first step in achieving the perfect fall wedding aesthetic is finding a venue that is surrounded by nature. Rock Island Lake Club is set on a tree-lined lake that creates a perfect fall foliage backdrop for your wedding ceremony. Adjacent to the lake, you’ll find a wooded area that’s ideal for intimate wedding day photos.
Get Ready in Comfort
You’ll be spending most of your wedding day in dress clothes and uncomfortable shoes. Treat yourself and our wedding party to cozy flannels and sock to stay warm and comfy!
Comfort Foods
It’s the start of comfort food {and football} season! From chicken and waffles lite bites to a mac n cheese bar to a Thanksgiving-themed station, we know how to do comfort foods right!
Decor
Sweetheart Tables
Embrace the season’s colors and decor with pumpkins, mums, and lanterns. Here is some fall sweetheart table inspiration from previous weddings at Rock Island.
Centerpieces
Sprinkle in some autumn elements on the tables for your reception. Lots of candles is the way to go for a cozy vibe!
