Winter Wedding Decor Ideas
Winter is a beautiful
time of year to plan your wedding, which will be magically glistening and
stunningly timeless, and the most unforgettable moment of your life that you’ll
treasure always.
Planning your winter
wedding day will ensure that it runs smoothly and to plan, and hiring a wedding
planner will guarantee that this is the case. Your planner can help you decide
whether you’d like a wedding abroad, which favours and centrepieces you love,
and other things such as bridesmaid dresses and seating plans. For more

Have a look at the
following winter decor ideas for inspiration on your wedding day decoration.
Color Schemes
Popular winter
wedding colors are reds, greens and blues, although when it comes to color
schemes, a good rule to follow is ‘less is more’. You don’t want to go over the
top on these colors as it can become a little too much, but subtle outbursts
look stunning.
Reds
Red themes are
timeless and classy, and work perfectly in the winter seasons. They especially
look amazing with a mix of green and a little gold, and are effortlessly
finished off with a touch of red lipstick and small matching details here and
there.
Blues
Blue color schemes
look beautiful with gold, white and silver, and indicate a very elegant and
classy bride and groom. Blue color schemes really suit the winter months, bringing
that edge of glistening iciness, but the right amount of warmth to make your
guests feel at home.
Neutrals
Neutral colours work
just as well for wintery themes, with touches of gold, silvers and browns.
Neutral colors bring that rustic feeling to life, and give a sense of that
woody countryside feeling that can be finished off perfectly with a classic
open fire for your guests to warm their chilly hands.
Centrepieces
Centrepieces come
down to the bride and groom’s personal taste, but when it comes to winter,
centrepieces should be warming and ideally a conversation starter for all your
guests. Beautiful winter centrepieces really bring a room together, and add
towards that special little something that makes your wedding so personal and
memorable.
Pine cones
Pine cones make for a
really simple yet pretty winter centerpiece, and give off quite a rustic feel
about them. You can either leave them in their natural state, or spray paint
them red and silver or gold, to give your guests a warm wintery feeling.
Floating centrepieces
Putting a single
flower into a little vase of water to float makes for such a simple but
beautiful centrepiece design. The image below shows some gorgeous wintery
ideas, but the same effect can be received by any flower of your choice, and
even tea lights. If you like the idea of this but want it on a bigger scale,
you could invest in some glass fish bowls and do a mix of the both, floating
flowers and a few tea lights to finish it off.
Candy
This is a really cool
and quirky idea for a table decoration, and a centrepiece that all ages of your
guests will appreciate. With red and white candy sticks and stunning flowers,
this is a centrepiece that gives off a definite Christmassy feeling about it,
and also works as a joint favour, while the candy sticks are an after dinner
treat for your guests to help themselves to.
The Cake
The wedding cake is a
classic and traditional part of every wedding, and in more recent years, the
bride-and-groom-to-be have decided to personalise their cake in order to differ
from the conventional three tiers that everyone is overly familiar with. However,
wedding cakes are also the perfect opportunity to theme and design your cake
into a festive and wintery feast.
Cute and Simple
If you want a simple
wedding cake, that matches your color scheme, a round, tiered cake, finished
with ribbon and the bride and groom’s initials on top make for a really cute
yet beautiful winter wedding cake.
Alternative
Alternative wedding
cake ideas would include gorgeous cupcakes, macaroons and cake filled snow
cones, any design that isn't to usual tiered wedding cake, or a tiered cake
that is slightly off centre and unique.
