A winter wedding can create a magical setting for your special day with the right creativity and decorations. A celebrity wedding planner shared tips on achieving a winter wonderland theme for your big day, including color ideas and special touches to make the event unique. The winter color palette includes traditional whites and creams, as well as metallics like silver and gold. Complimenting these colors with greens, reds, and even black can add sophistication to the winter theme.
Snow is a must for a winter wedding, but you don’t need real snow falling from the sky to achieve the desired ambiance. Faux snow, tree flocking, and twinkling lights can help transform your venue into a magical winter wonderland. Creating a chilly look with low ground haze and adding holiday trees can enhance the winter feel. Ice elements like sculptures and twinkling lights can also add to the winter ambiance, as seen in a wedding planned for “Selling Sunset’s” Christine Quinn in 2019.
The winter theme can extend beyond decorations to food and drinks served at the wedding. Fun ideas for cocktails include frosty elements, bubbling drinks, smoking drinks, or glittering cocktails. Adding holiday foods and tray-passing ideas can also enhance the winter wonderland theme. For a cozy and rustic vibe, blankets in baskets and a hot chocolate bar can create a warm atmosphere for guests. Lumber logs and fireplaces can add to a “Ralph Lauren, plaid type of vibe” for a cute and cozy winter wedding.
Whether you choose a traditional winter color palette or go for a more unique and sophisticated look with metallics and black, a winter wonderland wedding can be achieved with the right decorations and creativity. Faux snow, tree flocking, and twinkling lights can transform your venue into a magical winter setting. Adding ice elements like sculptures and incorporating a winter theme into food and drinks can enhance the overall experience for your guests. Blankets, hot chocolate bars, and rustic elements can create a cozy and inviting atmosphere for a winter wedding celebration.
