September Styling Ideas

It's the first weekend in September, on a sunny Sunday and I'm sat here with a few hours to spare {say what???} so I started to think of some styling ideas suitable for this time of year, which in turn got me thinking about a potential new blog series {we'll see how long it lasts... I'm making no promises...}

I thought it'd be fun to share with you some event styling ideas that are perfect for this time of year... These can be applied  weddings, parties and events, and are simple enough for you to do without paying out lots.

Because it's the start of the shift in seasons, into my favourite time of year... I focussed on neutral tones with lots of amber and green. Anyway... I hope you enjoy this little post and that they give you a little inspiration for styling an upcoming party or event...

To me velvet is the epitome of autumnal fabric!! A simple velvet ribbon tie round cutlery is a cute and inexpensive way to and a bit of charm to your tablescape.

A fun addition to any party is a DIY bar. Mix decanters with your favourite spirit bottles and garnishes and let your guests help themselves to their favourite tipple of choice!

Any one that knows us knows we're fans of brown bottles... Their warm tones are perfect for this time of year! {get creative with what you put in them too! these berries are suer cute.

Mix-matched coloured glassware is an easy way to change things up. You can either hire it from a company or pick it up cheaply in charity shops!

The look of a place setting can be changed easily with the use off different crockery. Pops of colour can be added with layered plates and you can mix up the look by including vintage plates.

Pampas grasses were and still are big news in the styling world! They're a lovely bohemian alternative to flowers & foliage. Use them to line the end of aisles or party entrances!

A super simple way to add a bit of style to your event is to swap out plain white candles for beautifully coloured ones.
​I really love these muted mustard ones.

Who doesn't love a glass & brass  lantern?! As Summer shifts to Autumn lanterns are a stunning way of adding warmth and light.

Another option if you don't want to pay for lots of expensive florals is to collect beautiful twigs. They look stunning in these stoneware vases.
