Winter Wedding Themes

Three Ideas for Cold Weather Matrimony

Snowflakes, crystal palaces, sparkling ice sculptures- if you're planning a winter wedding, these ideas might be dancing around in your head, and you're certainly not alone. On the heels of Disney's popular film, Frozen, some brides are now dreaming of wedded bliss in the snow. Here are three top themes for winter weddings, so grab some hot cocoa and take notes.

Blue and White

Combining shades of blue and creamy white help set the mood for the perfect winter wedding. Think navy blue invitations adorned with snowflakes, or soft shades of blue with matching envelopes.Bridesmaid dresses in varying blue tones create the mood for a winter wonderland. Peruse through Pinterest for entire boards devoted to blue and white weddings . 

Warm and Cozy

Winter brings thoughts of cozy fireplaces and snuggly blankets. As a bride you can wrap yourself in faux fur, like these custom sets from Sew U on Etsy. Or have your flower girls wear warm boots and muffs. Consider having your reception at a ski lodge and taking photos next to a decorated hearth. You can continue the warm and cozy theme with bridesmaid gifts and favors of cuddly slippers for each guest. 

Snowflakes and Sparkles

Nothing says winter quite like sparkling snowflakes. Wedding cakes like these beauties from Pink Cake Box are adorned with snowflakes and subtle sparkles. It might seem too difficult to send each guest home with a snowflake for a favor, but think again! Sweet Dani B creates custom cookie favors of all shapes and sizes, including snowflakes and snow globes. Ready to take a serious plunge into your snowflake themed wedding? Check out Snow Village in Montreal, where you can actually get married in a chapel made entirely of ice.

Let your imagination guide you when planning your winter wedding. You can even combine all three of these themes for a day worth remembering (and bundling up for!).
