I live in South Florida – there is no “real” winter weddings. It may get chilly for a few weeks but we don’t get to have that snowy winter wonderland wedding that many brides dream of. There are many ways to create a winter wedding, even if it’s not so cold outside.
#1) Atmosphere. Winter weddings are generally in the evening. I picture a cold night with the bride and groom indoor dancing by the candle light. Having said that, I think illumination is highly important.
#2) Colors. Winter wedding colors are pretty basic. Blue. Silver. White. While these traditional colors are beautiful, this year we are seeing a lot of rich browns included in the mix. A light blue with a warm brown can set the mood for a chilly winter wedding, even if it’s warm outside.
#3) Accessorize. Just because it’s not snowing outside doesn’t mean that you can’t bring the snowflakes INSIDE. There are tons of coordinating snowflake favors and accessories that can be used to really create a winter wonderland atmosphere. Hang pretty dangling snowflakes from the ceiling and scatter white holiday lights to create a magical experience.
#4) Chocolate. I mentioned the color chocolate brown above, but this is referring to the FOOD. Chocolate is thought of as a “warming” and comforting food. Many brides like the idea of giving personalized chocolate bars, personalized hot chocolate mix and even chocolate fountains! Guests with a sweet tooth will love this addition to your winter wedding!
