6 Reasons Why You Should Have A Fall Wedding

Throughout my whole life, I have always wanted to have a fall wedding. It sounds lame, right? It actually is! Enough about me, though. Fall weddings are trending now, more than ever, and people are booking weddings for October and November more frequently. There's hay, pumpkins, leaves, cider and crisp air awaiting us, so here is a nice little list of reasons to have a fall wedding. (Disclaimer: These are merely opinions. Great opinions, mind you, but just opinions.)


1. Fall is better than spring or summer.

Who wants to be all hot and sticky at a spring or summer wedding? Not me. Not anyone. Sweating is terrible and gross. Fall is calming, cool and pretty with the falling leaves. I, for one, imagine an outdoor wedding with arching trees and leaves slowly falling down. It's a beautiful sight.

2. It's easier to actually have a wedding.

In "wedding season," which occurs in spring and summer, everybody gets married. There are more weddings in that time than times I go to sleep (which is a lot). It's better to have a wedding that has no set time to end as caterers and others prepare for another reception.

3. Leaves! Leaves everywhere!

Nature is beautiful, and during fall, all the leaves are coming down, coating the ground and leaving trails of yellows, oranges, reds and browns. The mixture of the warm colors and the satisfying sound of crunchy leaves makes a person feel young and lively.

4. You could have an interesting anniversary.

Think of this: a Halloween wedding. Boom! Mind blown. Give out some candy to kids at the reception, have the bridesmaids and groomsmen wear awesome costumes; all is well. Then on the anniversary, the couple can go out with their kids trick or treating or go to a Halloween party. All is well and good.

5. Pumpkins are in season.

Pumpkins are no joke. Pumpkin pie, pumpkin spice lattes with extra pumpkin spice, orange, pumpkin ice cream, pumpkin everything. And it's all there for your wedding. It sounds so great to get married when there are pumpkins around.

6. Apple cider is also great.

Apple cider tastes best in the fall. No absolute reason why, but it always tastes better when you can see nature take its course—as in, standing at the windows with a glass of cider, watching the leaves come off the trees and blow through the wind. The world is so much more at peace in the fall.


Though there are many more reasons why people should have a fall wedding, it's up to you when you decide to marry. In my opinion, fall is just a beautiful time and so great for a wedding.

The Daily Struggles of Being a College Commuter
morethanwheels

I've been in college for four years now. I spent half my time as a commuter and half as a resident so I've experienced both sides of the housing spectrum. One thing I've learned comparing the two is that my struggles as a commuter far outweigh anything I went through while living on campus. Commuters have to deal with the problems school brings along with a slew of other issues; I've filled up my gas tank in the worst kind of weather conditions and napped in random places in public more times than I'm proud to say of. This is a list of some of the most challenging aspects of being a commuter.

New year, new semester, not the same old thing. This semester will be a semester to redeem all the mistakes made in the previous five months.

1. I will wake up (sorta) on time for class.

Let's face it, last semester you woke up with enough time to brush your teeth and get to class and even then you were about 10 minutes late and rollin' in with some pretty unfortunate bed head. This semester we will set our alarms, wake up with time to get ready, and get to class on time!
