Winter Wedding Ideas!

Weddingstar Miniature Winter Snowglobes

Spring time has always been the most popular time of year to plan your wedding. The theory behind this is the green grass, warm weather and growing flowers. These days, however, more couples are finding joy with having a winter wedding. There may be uncertain weather conditions but these couples have received in return savings on wedding essentials and avoidance of the long line-ups for services.

Winter Wedding Benefits Include:

• Wedding venues are more readily available and far less expensive (Christmas and Valentine dates not withstanding).
• Your photographs will portray a winter wonderland.
• More luxurious palette of colors and fabrics to choose from such as varying shades of red, royal blue, deep purple and hunter green.
• Ability to plan on short notice, without being told that your vendor, disc jockey, photographer or caterer of choice is booked solid.
• Flowers that don't wilt in the heat (as long as you take care not to let them freeze in the cold)
• Cakes that don't sag, and makeup that doesn't melt.
• Better chance that more of your invited guests will not be on holidays and therefore able to attend your wedding.

An enchanting cozy ambiance can easily be created at a rustic mountain lodge with roaring fireplaces, sleigh rides, and a host of other winter-loving amenities. For a winter wonderland effect, choose a grand ballroom with draped fabric walls filled with white, silver and crystal twinkling lights.

For wedding accessories, decorations, and favors, winter weddings offer a host of snowflake themed items in various shades of blue, white and silver. Tiny candy holding mittens for favors, snowflake jeweled garter, miniture snowglobes or winter place cards, all add to a fantasy themed setting.
