When it comes to table decorations and centerpieces, there are endless possibilities. Add a cute little touch of winter by using snowflake shaped placed cards. Decorate winter wedding receptions using icicles hanging from centerpieces as accents. Candles are a must to create that wonderland feel! Take our advice at Its Your Day and you’re sure to have a fabulous, upscale, elegant and fun-filled event.

Other winter wedding tips…

1. Have flower girls throw fake snow

2. Have bridesmaids wear muffs, faux fur wraps and warm fuzzy boots

3. The bride can wear a pretty white cape to keep warm

4. A horse-drawn sleigh instead of a horse and carriage. It’s a Winter in Wonderland style of transportation

No matter what, winter is always a great time for family to get together, snuggle next to those you love the most and enjoy each other’s company. Not to mention, marrying this time of year is also a way to spend less and save more!

Winter In Wonderland

Weddings and Inspiration

We all know that ideally some couples would prefer to have their weddings when the temperature is warmer, but let’s not count out winter. Winter is an amazing time of year where you can be extremely creative and bring that warm and comfy feeling to you and your guests. There are many things that can be done to make your wedding day beautiful. One thing we at It’s Your Day suggest is to have winter inspired chair covers and aisle decor for the ceremony. If there are pews, try using berries or snowflakes to enhance the aisle. It’s cute and certainly not overkill.

Everyone loves a fancy cocktail hour filled with delicious hors d’oeuvres and drinks, right? Entertain guests by allowing them to experience a hot cocoa bar or indulge in warm cocktails. What about hot soup cocktails by having guests use shot or martini glasses? It’s unique and leaves your guest feeling cozy and warm, and it’ll be one of the many highlights of the night.
