Bring your brunch bunch together for a festive fall outdoor gathering before the colder temperatures start to set in complete with Jackson Morgan Southern Cream cocktails. Take this outdoor opportunity to branch out with beautiful, unique, and unexpected colors and patterns. You may even have items from other holidays and celebrations that could pull double duty for this autumn outing.

Personally, I am partial to this baby blue gingham pattern which most would perhaps not consider a fall hue, but I adore how it pairs perfectly with the sky and really pulls the whole natural setting together. Plus, call me crazy, but I think the crisp white and playful orange tones really pop when placed next to the softened blue pieces.

I knew this color scheme was meant to be when I happened upon matching blue gingham patterned pumpkins from For Pete’s Sake pottery. These custom hand-painted pieces really confirmed my color choices and helped create such a pretty place to gather together and enjoy brunch-style bites and snacks. Finally, as a finishing touch, the table setting was finalized with a patterned ginger jar of fresh grocery store flowers as a flattering centerpiece.
