Winter Weddings – Give It A Try
July 26, 2009
Most brides choose to get married in the spring or the summer. However, a winter wedding can be quite beautiful, so consider having your wedding during this magical season. There are a whole array of options for making your wedding unique and memorable during this time of year.
If you decide to have a wedding during the winter, choose the date well in advance. Christmas and New Year’s Eve are two popular dates for winter weddings, so you will want to give yourself plenty of time to reserve your wedding and reception locations.
Be sure and send out “Save the Date” cards so your guests can make their plans, since these two holidays tend to be busy ones. Some brides choose a Christmas wedding as a convenience if their families live far apart and usually gather together only at this time of year.
Getting married in a church during this special time means that the church is most likely already decorated with wreaths, garlands, pine, poinsettias, holly and candles. You might want to continue this theme at your reception, where you can create a holiday mood with tartan ribbons, velvet ribbons and tablecloths, and deep red roses.
