If you’re planning your nuptials around that time, you’ll want to set the mood with seasonal colors — and you can start with your bridesmaids’ dresses. Rich, foliage-inspired hues are always a winning choice for bridesmaids dresses and can really set the tone for a post-summer soiree..

This season, in addition to deeper saturated colors, there are a few softer, delicate shades that are growing in popularity — and quickly. Ahead, five bridesmaid dress color palettes that are topping the fall wedding colors must-have list.
