November wedding colors

November wedding color palettes with named colors and hex codes, the flowers in season, the usual weather, and a free generator to make your own.

November is the quiet end of fall, with early dusk and the first frosts. Deep Plum, Garnet and Pine Needle with Antique Gold suit an evening room, and Mushroom and Oat Milk keep it grounded. The 10 palettes below suit it; each one opens in the editor.

It gets dark early, so plan for candles and a ceremony in daylight. Thanksgiving week is busy for travel. The generator above is set to fall shades for November, with the flowers in season.

    A second color for details: stationery, a few flowers, napkins.

  • Neutral

    Oat Milk

    Hex code: #E6DAC6

Text on your paper

Your main color is a little pale for text on your neutral (1.4 to 1; 4.5 to 1 is easier to read). A deeper shade, #675f52, would read clearly.

In season for fall

Dahlias, Sunflowers, Zinnias, Celosia, Chrysanthemums, Asters, Amaranthus, Marigolds, Berries, Ornamental kale, Magnolia leaves, Evergreens

A guide only. A florist will know what is growing near you.

A veil shade to look at

With a neutral like yours, Pale Ivory is the veil shade we would look at first. Colors look different on every screen, so see it in person where you can. We never promise an exact match. Your palette is a soft, light cream.

Your board

Your style, your five colors, the flowers in season and the pictures you picked, on one page. Show it to a florist or a stationer.

  • You do not have to match your venue.
  • A palette is a starting point. Most couples change their minds, and that is fine.

    November colors for the wedding party

    • Deep wine, rust, olive or navy in heavier fabrics.
    • Charcoal, navy or brown suits; velvet or tweed details look right.
    • A shawl or jacket for the evening is kind to guests.

    What colors to wear to a November wedding

    • White, ivory and cream are usually the couple's, so most guests leave them to the couple. The same goes for a very pale champagne.
    • If the invitation names the wedding party's color, wear something different.
    • In some traditions all black is for mourning and all white is for the couple, and red can be the couple's color at some Chinese and Indian weddings. If you are not sure, ask, or check the invitation for a dress code.
    • Otherwise, wear what you feel good in. Colors that suit the season are always welcome.

    How to choose November wedding colors

    1. Start with one thing you love. A season, a color, a photo of the venue or a dress, or nothing yet. Any of them is a fine place to begin.

    2. Pick a few pictures. Three short rounds. Choose two to four in each, and the quiz names your style.

    3. Check the five colors. You get a main color, an accent, a neutral, greenery and a metal, each with our name and a hex code.

    4. Change what you like. Lock the ones you love and shuffle the rest, make any of them lighter or darker, or choose from about 120 named colors.

    5. Share it. Make a board for your florist or stationer, or send a link to your partner and see what you both chose.
