Decorating a Christmas Wedding
Many couples decide they want a lovely Christmas wedding. The cold winter can be warmed with elegant decor, for a beautiful, richly decorated, spectacular Christmas wedding. Colors can be, of course, red and green, gold, silver, white, burgundy, or hunter green. You can decorate with seasonal foliage, such as Poinsettia, Evergreen, Holly, and Baby's Breath. Taffeta, plaid, and velvet bows are also great options for your decor. Consider adding a Christmas tree, wreaths, and Christmas music for special touches.
The attire for your wedding party can easily reflect the season. Many brides opt for a white gown, but an elegant cape and faux fur trim can be added to reflect the season. Grooms can also wear white, and bridesmaids can be dressed in silver gowns, and groomsmen can wear white tuxes with silver, or gray bowties and vests.
One benefit to planning a Christmas wedding is that many of your vendors may have already decorated for the season. Many use colors of red and green, but silver and white are also common colors for the season. When looking for vendors, search well in advance to book early, and ask if they decorate for the holidays. If they do, ask if they can perhaps decorate to suit your needs. White tablecloths are inexpensive, and perfect for a Christmas wedding. Small amounts of glitter, or confetti can be tossed on the tables for sparkle. You can also do things like fill wine glasses with floating white flowers or silver streamers, and Christmas ornaments. Custom ornaments make great wedding favors. It would be stunning to have a miniature Christmas village on your cake table. When the wedding is over, you can use the village as Christmas décor every year in your home. Twinkle lights wrapped in tulle look wonderful also, just make sure you buy cool to the touch bulbs!
