A Winter Wedding for the Romantic in You

A Winter Wedding for the Romantic in You

by Ciara Daykin

If you are still wondering which the best time for your wedding is, then think about having a winter wedding. Imagine having a wedding with the snow glistening in the moonlight and a warm fire burning inside. The wonderful candle light will provide you with the perfect romantic ambience which will make your wedding a dream wedding. Besides the fact that a winter wedding provides the perfect romantic setting, it offers the bride more choices. Summertime and springtime are usually considered the busiest wedding seasons by wedding professionals whereas winters are lean periods. There are, therefore, more open dates available in winters. This offers the bride a great opportunity to pick the perfect wedding date, arrangement, setting and vendor.

A Romantic Wintertime Wedding

If you are thinking of having a winter wedding, you can give your own special and distinctive touch to the celebrations.

Here are 5 ideas that will help make your winter wedding pop:

1. Bring the outdoors inside - We had a couple that wanted to have a winter wedding that oozed elegance and grace but also brought the outside indoors. We created a tree lined aisle for their nuptials and lit each tree with chilly blue lighting which picked up the sparkles on the icy branches

2. Make a home-like surrounding for your guests - Nothing smells like home than a cup of hot chocolate in the winter. If you do agree with this statement then here’s an idea for your signature drink. Greet them with the Mexican Hot chocolate, a drink which has hot chili powder mixed with unsweetened chocolate and some cinnamon. Sounds great, doesn’t it?

3. Classy fashion in the winters - A winter wedding is classy not only because of the snow and the fire and the candlelight, but also because of the fashionable outfits you can put on. Imagine this: you as a bride looking beautiful wearing lovely long white gloves, a laced dress with long sleeves. When its time to take some pictures, you look more cute and lovely wearing some stylish furry boots. To further add to some winter fun, you can even put on a fur hat or caplet. And also the men. Won’t they look handsome in their hats.

4. Delicious winter food for your guests - One of the best things about a winter wedding is choices of food available which you can serve at the wedding buffet. Guests love a hot meal sprinkled with aromatic and flavorful herbs such as sage and rosemary in the winters. Whereas in summers you have to wonder what food to serve, winters offer a number of options and choices.

5. The Colors of Winter - Some people prefer going with white at their winter weddings. It always works great. But you may want to add a dash of color to your winter wedding. Winters are the time to try out some deep rich colors. You can choose sapphire blue. Greens and Purples are also perfect for a wedding in the winters. Merlots and deep rich scarlet red also look elegant. Of course you can also pick a combination of the colors of ivory, cream and white, which is always the favorite of brides.

I bet all these things are making you long for a winter wedding. You probably never thought that a wedding in wintertime could actually offer you so many choices and so much romance. Believe me, your guests are probably fed up of packing another summertime wedding to attend. They will thank you for inviting them to a relaxing, enjoyable and romantic winter wedding.
