Whether you call it autumn (as we do here in the UK) or fall (as my American friends say), there’s no denying this season is one of the most magical times of year to get married. The light softens, the leaves turn golden, and nature gives us a palette that feels rich, romantic, and timeless.
At Arsenic and Old Lace, I work with couples on both sides of the Atlantic, and I’ve noticed that while the language may differ, the colours couples gravitate toward for a fall or autumn wedding are strikingly similar. In fact, these five tie colours are already shaping up to be the top choices for weddings in Autumn/Fall 2025.
Navy – The Hartington Collection
You simply cannot go wrong with navy. It’s versatile, flattering, and sophisticated without ever feeling too traditional. Navy suits are a classic on both sides of the pond, and this shade works perfectly for weddings that lean elegant and timeless. In the UK, navy often pairs with autumn florals or metallic accents, while in the US, I’ve seen it matched with rustic barn backdrops or sleek city venues. Our Hartington Collection captures this look beautifully – crisp navy bow ties, ties, and pocket squares to add a refined finish to your wedding style.
Sage Green – The Warwick Collection
If there’s one shade that feels truly of-the-moment, it’s sage green. Calm, natural, and versatile, sage has been a firm favourite with couples across both the UK and US. In autumn weddings, it sits perfectly against ivory florals, ochre accents, and even berry tones. Our Warwick Collection, inspired by William Morris’s famous Lodden print, brings a romantic botanical flourish that works just as well for an English country house wedding as it does for a chic vineyard celebration in California.
Ochre – The Eyam Collection
Ochre is such a wonderfully warm and earthy tone – it feels like pure autumn (or fall!) in a colour. This golden hue is often chosen by UK couples for rustic barn weddings and candlelit settings, while in the US it shines just as brightly in outdoor ceremonies framed by maple trees and seasonal décor. Our Eyam Collection reflects this golden warmth with ties, bow ties, and pocket squares that bring a glow to the whole wedding party.
Red Berry – Wool and Tweed Collection
If you’re looking for a bold statement, berry tones are set to be huge for autumn/fall 2025 weddings. They bring richness and depth, whether paired with navy suits or lighter neutrals. In the UK, these shades echo the hedgerows and harvest fruits of the season; in the US, they’re reminiscent of the stunning crimson leaves of fall. Our Wool and Tweed Collection offers tactile ties and bow ties in this striking colour – perfect for grooms who want to stand out or for couples leaning into deep, romantic palettes.
Blush Pink – Wool and Tweed Collection
Autumn (or fall) doesn’t have to mean only dark, rich colours. Blush pink remains popular for 2025, with softer, dusky undertones that feel perfectly in tune with the season. In the UK, it often complements classic autumnal florals, while in the US it adds a romantic lift to vineyard weddings and rustic settings alike. Our Wool and Tweed Collection brings this gentle shade to life in textured fabrics that feel cosy, timeless, and just right for cooler evenings.
Not Just Ties – Bow Ties, Pocket Squares & Cufflinks Too
Of course, not everyone is a “tie” person, and that’s absolutely fine. Every one of these collections is also available as pre-tied bow ties (perfect for a fuss-free finish on the day), self-tie bow ties (for those who enjoy the ritual), as well as matching pocket squares and cufflinks. These little details are such a simple way to tie a whole wedding party’s look together, whether you’re aiming for understated elegance or a touch of personality.
Autumn or Fall – The Feeling is the Same
Whether you say autumn or fall, the essence is identical: a season full of warmth, romance, and beauty. From the classic navy of Hartington to the romantic sage of Warwick, the golden ochre of Eyam, and the textured elegance of our Wool and Tweed Collection in berry and blush – there’s a perfect colour to tie your wedding style together, wherever you are in the world.
If you’re planning a wedding for Autumn/Fall 2025, I’d love to help you find the perfect match for your look.
With Love
