Summer weddings are often more popular than winter weddings, but there’s something extra magical about getting married to your soul mate on a frosty day.
Winter is associated with feelings of coziness, warmth, and family time. Choosing a winter wedding means you can keep the cute and cozy memories alive for years to come. And we’ve not even mentioned Bailey’s hot chocolates, faux fur, and snow-filled scenes that you can enjoy with a winter ceremony!
If you’re recently engaged and are starting to organize things for your special day, here’s why you should consider planning the perfect winter wedding.
1. Winter Attire
Winter wedding gowns are second to none. They’re classy, chic, and icy fresh, and they look perfect in a traditional outdoor winter setting.
Lots of winter wedding dresses are built for warmth and support so you can fully relax on your special day, no matter what the weather. They have long elegant tails and stylish sleeves so you can look and feel like a true princess. You can also get matching jacket or blazers, or faux fur additions for extra comfort.
2. Off-Peak Time of the Year
Booking a wedding venue on your desired day in the summer can be difficult and stressful. You can avoid the summer rush by choosing to get married during the off-peak period.
Finding the perfect winter wedding venue is much simpler, and you’ll have more freedom to choose the date of your special day. Plus, wedding venues usually offer discounts for off-peak pricing so that you can save money too.
3. Festive Feels
There’s nothing quite like to festive feeling of a winter wedding. You can take your wedding photos in front of gorgeous snowy scenes surrounded by rich, elegant, and sparkling decorations.
Your guests can enjoy boozy hot chocolate, mulled wine, and cinnamon lattes as they socialize at your reception. You could even decorate your venue with a Christmas tree, baubles, and wreaths to make things extra festive.
The winter sun creates the perfect lighting for wedding photos. When the sun sets around 4 pm, you can make the most of the sunset and capture breath-taking photos with your partner and guests. You can also dance in the winter sun with your loved ones and make memories that you’ll never forget.
4. Something to look forward to in winter
Often, winter can feel gloomy when you’ve got nothing to look forward to. Planning a winter wedding ceremony gives you something to enjoy over the colder months of the year so you can avoid the winter blues. Getting married in the winter means you can enjoy your honeymoon in the middle of summer too. After enjoying your wedding in a winter wonderland, you can jet off to a sunny destination and continue the celebrations.
