Winter Weddings

It is snowing outside, and the winter season is about to begin. What is an appropriate subject to discuss..."Winter Weddings."

There is no doubt that winter weddings can be very beautiful. But, there some things to consider. Colors is one thing to consider. Some winter colors are silver, black, burgundy and emerald green, to name a few. Some winter flowers are roses, lilies, chrysanthemums, hydrangea and poinsettias. Many brides like winter weddings because they want to wear the white fur. Many wedding decorations will include ice, frosted trees and snowflakes. Now it make sense to have a winter wedding if your living along the east coast. But, with many wonderful planners and their ideas, winter wonderland theme can be created no matter what the season is and location of the event. You also have to consider the time. Don't forget, it gets dark early in the winter.

Some do's and don'ts for Winter Weddings:


- do keep bridesmaids in style
- do not be inconsiderate (do not leave your bridal party outside; consider their bridal gowns and the type of shoes they are wearing)

- do a warm & cozy reception (candles create a romantic glow)
- do not overheat the reception

- do time management (try to stay on schedule with timing)
- do not leave guests out in the cold (have a waiting area at the reception site, especially if they cannot go inside until a specific time, and they arrive early)

When all said and done, "Winter Weddings" can be very romantic and elegant. You also have to consider the weather. Some states have heavy snow storms and this makes it very difficult to travel. especially if you have out of town guests. Classic music playing at the reception for dinner sets off a certain elegance about the evening.

As the evening come to a close, your "Winter Wedding" will be something to remember. As you exit, ride off in your all white limousine.
