The festive wedding season is well under way! Summer weddings still without question dominate the wedding market, but to me there is nothing more romantic than a winter wedding.
From couture long sleeve lace dresses with hooded snow capes, to candlelight ceremonies, sparklers, mulled wine and even snow (if you are lucky). Does it get more romantic than that?
1) “Baby its cold outside”
STUNNING WINTER WEDDING DRESSES!
Wonderful opportunity to wear a quintessentially winter dress and wrap up warm with a fur wrap or bridal cape.

2) “The fire is so delightful”
CANDLES EVERYWHERE!
You can save a lot of money on flowers by simply using candles. Tea lights, hurricane lamps, lanterns or just church pillar candles.
The impact is breath-taking and you can never have too many candles!
3) “It’s the most wonderful time of the year”
SIMPLE CHRISTMAS DETAIL
With pine cones, holly, berries, sparkle and ribbon to work with, you can make such simple chair decorations or favours with just a sprig of festive greenery and a pine cone. So beautifully Christmassy, whilst simple and very cost effective.

WINTER WARMERS!
A lovely festive wedding idea is to have a mulled wine or hot chocolate station. Warming wintry drinks or sparkly cocktails are a fast-growing trend. Not only will it keep your guests in high spirits and warm, but the station will be a beautiful addition to your design.

FAIRY LIGHT BACKDROP!
Fairy lights creating backdrop walls is very popular at the moment. It makes for stunning pictures and couldn’t lend itself more to a romantic winter wedding. So, exploit this trend and create a beautiful backdrop behind your ceremony or top table.

7) “Joyful and Triumphant”
SPARKLERS!
As the nights draw in so early now, you may as well use this to your advantage by giving your guests sparklers, which is not only enjoyable for them, but creates dazzling photographs. Create words for photos or a sparkler tunnel for you both to walk through. Making magical memories to last a lifetime.

WINTER WEDDING CAKE!
Why not choose a cheese stack instead of a traditional sweet cake. They not only look beautiful and rustic, but double up fantastically as evening food with charcuterie and winter chutneys.

9) “Meet me under the mistletoe”
MISTLETOE!
There is already love in abundance at a wedding, but you can add a little more with some mistletoe around the venue. It not only looks pretty but will be great fun for your guests and will create some super pictures too.

10) “The weather outside is frightful”
GET COSY!
Blankets…. Create an alluring area at your wedding which adds to your design concept whilst keeping your guests warm. Your guests will love getting cosy whilst drinking a mulled wine or enjoying the sparklers outside.
