The Golden Hour Serves as the Perfect Fall Wedding Theme

A bride and groom walk a path at the golden hour. His burgundy suit and her neutral wedding dress complement the fall wedding theme.
As the leaves turn, the days get shorter and the light takes on a special hue. Take inspiration from the season for a wedding theme; it’s a time of fleeting beauty and lasting memories.
