There&#8217;s just something about the crisp air and the warm colors of the leaves that leave us aching for more. It&#8217;s never too early or too late to obsess over autumnal sweetness. After all, you might be <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">planning your upcoming fall wedding<\/a> and need a little <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/wedding-inspiration\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">inspo<\/a>, too! <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>For Ashlee + Greg, a fall wedding was an absolute must, and it couldn&#8217;t have been any more charming. The couple, having the warmest and gentle personalities, wanted to create an experience that celebrated both their love for each other and their spirituality. With the help of their chosen <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/#vendor-categories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding vendor<\/a>s and the wedding venue, they made their ideal day, and so much more, possible.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Ashlee + Greg love the idea of simplicity and decided that this would be the perfect way to go about their <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding<\/a>. Choosing the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/#vendor-categories\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">elements<\/a> that would make up their wedding came easy, and they relied heavily on their faith to create a beautiful day for each other and their family + friends.  Even though simple was the key for these two, there was certainly no lack of detail and memorable moments.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\" style=\"border-color:#d6b6bf;\"><blockquote><p>We\u2019re a pretty simple couple, so it wasn\u2019t surprising when we picked out details of our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding<\/a>, like colors, centerpieces, and yes even our <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding<\/a> cake within 5 minutes. Needless to say, the Lord has put on our hearts as a couple and as individuals to focus our time and energy on bigger things in life. Things you can\u2019t necessarily get back, things like moments and memories.<\/p><cite>Ashlee, bride<\/cite><\/blockquote><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>We&#8217;re often used to seeing fall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">weddings<\/a> with rich <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/wedding-vendors\/wedding-dresses-tuxes-formalwear-gowns-bridesmaids-suits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">white and cream gowns<\/a>, warm and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/wedding-vendors\/wedding-flowers-decor-design-florals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">luscious bouquets<\/a>, and hints of orange and red everywhere.  Ashlee&#8217;s pale pink <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/wedding-vendors\/wedding-dresses-tuxes-formalwear-gowns-bridesmaids-suits\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding gown<\/a> and the small, modest <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/wedding-vendors\/wedding-flowers-decor-design-florals\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">floral bouquets<\/a> were an excellent example of the bride&#8217;s beautiful personality + unconventional take on a fall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding<\/a>. This is just a reminder: you get to pave your path, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">design your wedding<\/a>, and do you \u2013 no matter what the current trends are!<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-pullquote\" style=\"border-color:#d6b6bf;\"><blockquote><p>The trees were glowing with color and the romantic lighting was the cherry on top.

At the end of the day, there was one <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/wedding-vendors\/wedding-photographers-videographers-cinematographers\">photographer<\/a> that stood out above them all, and it was a no-brainer. They chose the wildly talented <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/listing\/fender-photography\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">Cecilia of Fender Photography<\/a> \u2013 the perfect match for their warm, charming, fall <a href=\"https:\/\/www.weddingcollectivenm.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noreferrer noopener\">wedding<\/a>!

And because of her, we will always have those memories to look back on.
