If you are getting married in winter, why not work with the season instead of trying to contrast with it? Winter weddings in soft white, ivory and gray are elegant and beautiful, without being over-stated. Here are some ideas to help you as you plan for your soft, subtle winter wedding.
Choose the Right Flowers
Flowers can set the stage for your decor, and this is one way Griffins Floral Designs can help. Our team of wedding floral designers will create stunning displays for your ceremony, reception and bouquets featuring white roses, elegant calla lilies, ivory chrysanthemums and just enough green to give it some color. Add some holly to add a bit of color to the floral designs, or use gray berries and pinecones to stay within the winter theme.
Add Interest with White Lights
One way to dress up your reception and ceremony location for a white winter wedding is with white twinkling lights. Add these behind tulle or hang icicle lights from the ceiling to create a beautiful, candle-lit look without the expense and mess of actual candles. These lights will give a romantic ambiance to your ceremony and reception.
Choose Grey for Attendants
If you are opting for a white winter wedding, choosing the color for your attendants’ clothing can be a challenge. A light gray or silver would be an elegant, and simple choice, allowing the blushing white bride to stand out while also allowing the attendants to match the overall look of the wedding. A touch of sliver or pearl jewelry will bring the look together.
Bring Winter Indoors
Finally, as you consider the overall decor for your wedding, consider bringing winter indoors. Pine cones and bare branches with a soft touch of snow like spray paint can be a welcome addition to your reception hall. Arrange these inside clear vases or tie them to candle holders using twine and evergreen sprigs for a refreshing twist on classic wedding decor.
Throughout the process, flowers are going to be one of the primary focuses of your decorations, and Griffins Floral Designs is here to help. With our services, you can create a perfect white and gray winter wonder land as the backdrop to your wedding ceremony and reception.
