Winter is a wonderful time of year – crisp, fresh and cold. It isn’t perhaps the time of year that brings to mind thoughts of weddings, but nonetheless people do get married during the winter months and it does give you a fantastic chance to plot a wedding with a winter theme.
For a start you can nearly dispense with the usual colors and reckon about using white and silver instead – both very icy and crisp colors that far from being cold would look stunning if used in the right way.
For example, reckon about how you would decorate the tables at the reception. Crisp white tablecloths with silver as the main color used in the centerpiece – just imagine how stunning that would look! You can still use other shades as well of course, but reckon about using them as accents instead of as main colors in your overall scheme. Blue is a excellent choice since it ties in nicely with the wintry theme and if you use lighter shades it won’t appear too cold.
You can also use silver as the catalyst for choosing your winter wedding favors. There are plenty of wonderful and unique wedding party favors that are made either of chrome or silver that would fit in well with your winter theme. For example, how about a chrome candle snuffer that doubles as a place holder? This would blend in with the rest of your color scheme and also provide somewhere to place your name cards. Heart design bookmark favors made of silver colored metal are another excellent and practical choice that is sure to be appreciated by all your guests, long after the wedding is over.
If you are searching for some unique winter wedding favors to suit your theme wedding, you can use them to prompt thoughts for the rest of your wedding plans as well. For example, you could buy snowflake place card holders and find some table confetti in the shape of snowflakes as well, enabling you to continue the theme right through to the finest detail.
The arrival of winter often causes us to want to snuggle down and feel cozy and protected against the colder weather outside. Reckon about this as well; you could perhaps provide some warm red candles on the tables to contrast with the silver and white colors. Pine cones nestling around the bases look stunning too, and if you can have them scented with cinnamon or cranberries it will all help to add to the atmosphere.
As you can see there are plenty of wedding thoughts here – all you need to do is start letting your mind run in the right channels to find the best solutions for you. If you are really stuck then start searching for winter themed party favors, because they will provide you with all the thoughts you need.
At first glance a winter theme wedding might seem to offer more of a challenge than a summer wedding – but as you can tell, that really isn’t the case.
