Though summer weddings can be a lot of fun, there is something truly special about a winter wedding. A winter wedding provides an opportunity to embrace a whole set of color schemes and fashion choices that only work during the colder months. Here are a few wonderful ideas to consider for your winter wedding:
Invitations
Your invitations should reflect how formal you want your wedding to be. Since winter weddings are almost always indoors and in formal settings, you should consider elegant invitations with fancy lettering. You might also include one of your winter motifs so that your guests know what to expect.
Color schemes
Decorating your reception hall with cool whites, blues, and silvers can instantly give your wedding a wintery feel. Since winter is the holiday season, you might even throw in hints of red or green.
Motifs
Winter is full of fun motifs that can give your wedding an extra dimension. Snowflakes, pinecones, and evergreens all serve as tasteful decorations. They can serve to inspire a theme or even be used to create beautiful decorations.
Music
When deciding on music for your winter wedding, you should consider the overall aesthetic of the affair. If your wedding is elegant and traditional, you should have a string quartet playing classical music. If your wedding is more casual and modern, a live band or DJ should be fine.
Attire
When selecting your wedding gown and bridesmaid dresses, you should consider your color scheme and motifs. And while you may not want to incorporate scarves or hats into the wedding party’s wardrobe, guests will get a chance to sport their finer winter accessories.
If you’re looking for a venue for your winter wedding, you should consider Chevy Chase Country Club. Built in 1927, our Tudor-style country club can help make your wedding an elegant affair. Call us today at (847) 465-2304 to learn more about our facilities.
