Wedding Ideas

The Magical Winter Weddings.

When you are considering a winter wedding, think about sparkles, snowflakes, frosted ice, gingerbread cookies and snow.

The possibilities are limitless! Try to decorate with colors from icy winter days. Colors such as white, silver, ice blue, and maybe gold.

Selecting the location of your party is critical, preferably inside with a warm fireplace to create a cozy family ambience for the wedding.

If your wedding is in an area of the country were it never snows, consider using fake snow.

Decorating the reception room with hanging ornamental snowflakes will give the feeling of falling snow and is sure to catch the eyes of your guests. A centerpiece with a snowman sculpture, or a decorative tree or crystal Christmas ornaments will brighten and accentuate the room.

Tableware is very important. Silver plates, crystal glasses along with white, gold, and silver napkins can be a very good combination for the winter theme.

If you want a natural touch on your table try using a lovely pine cone napkin ring.

For a great way to say “Thank you” to your guests, try using wedding favors. Why not use available items for Christmas that your guests will love, like Christmas ornaments, candles, snow globes, chocolate, candies and any item normally used for winter celebrations.

Decorating the cake will be easier! White cake decorated with accents like snowflakes, or sparkling jewelry accents will be beautiful. For a cake topper you can add the traditional “Couple” or the “Wonderland Snowflake” topper.

Seasonal food dishes are important. Hot menus, including soup, lasagna, spiced meats , macaroni, etc. always use traditional foods and for the dessert menu, the use of rich chocolate mini-cakes will be enjoyed by your guests.

Because this time of year is beautiful and magical , make this winter season a great wedding celebration and get inspirational ideas from the natural beauty of snow. Take extra time to organize a plan for a perfect winter wedding.
