AUTHOR: BIRDY GREY | DATE: 11/21/2023

Winter weddings have a distinct charm, offering a magical backdrop for couples who choose to celebrate their love amidst the crisp air, fresh snow and ambiance of the season. From the venue selection to special menu selections, cold-weather weddings allow for unique and memorable styling details that set them apart from weddings held in other seasons. Below, we break down how to mix and match the best hues of the winter season.

 

Décor and Details:

Before we dive into wedding attire, it’s important to note the decor. Whether you choose floral arrangements, table settings or stationery, be sure to mix in splashes of your chosen color(s) for a harmonious look.

Intricate details and thematic decorations are key to nailing the perfect winter wedding. Faux fur accents and soft candles infuse a cozy, intimate vibe. You can even incorporate evergreen branches, pinecones, and seasonal foliage for a realistic touch.

 

Winter Wedding Palette

Below, we break down our favorite winter wedding colors and pairings, for a chic and timeless soirée.

 

The Cool Elegance of Blues

Navy blue, an ever-classic choice, brings sophistication, depth, and calmness. It forms a perfect base for a winter wedding palette. Alternatively, lighter shades like icy or powder blue bring an ethereal and wintry feel, reminiscent of snow and frost-kissed landscapes.

Rich Reds and Burgundies

Deep reds and burgundies exude warmth and passion, making them ideal for a winter wedding. These rich hues contrast beautifully with icy blues or pair elegantly with gold or silver accents. Burgundy shades are inherently romantic, adding a touch of opulence to the overall wedding theme.

Elegant Metallics

Gold and silver, often associated with winter celebrations, introduce a sense of luxury and glamour. Gold signifies warmth and sophistication, adding a radiant touch to the décor and attire. Silver, on the other hand, echoes the coolness of winter and reflects light beautifully, creating a luminous effect.
