Top Tips for a Wonderful Winter Wedding
The most popular months for getting hitched are usually when the weather is warm, the days long, and the sun shining. There are definitely a number of benefits to a summer wedding, but also one large downside; the high demand often drives up prices. Why not embark on an alternative magical adventure for your wedding, and take advantage of the beauty of the colder months? It’s perfectly possible to achieve a picturesque wedding during winter, with the added bonus that it’s often more affordable. Read on to find out The Insurance Emporium’s top tips for creating a fairy-tale winter wedding!
- Over prepare
Winter can be a risky season, so it’s better to be over prepared the last thing you want is to end up cold and wet! The motto ‘hope for the best, expect the worst’ is apt here, and can help ensure things run smoothly! Make sure you have both indoor and outdoor shelter options on the day, with adequate heating and appropriate flooring; no one wants to traipse through mud in heels!
- Let there be light!
One area that’s often overlooked in a winter wedding is lighting, but it’s a factor that may make or break your special day. Many venues are viewed during daytime, and you may be searching a few months before your wedding, when the days are longer and brighter. It’s important to consider how your venue will look and feel at night, and the best way to make your space cosy and inviting after dark.
- Dress appropriately
Getting hitched when the weather is cooler actually allows you more choice in your wedding dress; a simple strapless number probably won’t be enough in the snow! Why not try out a magical Kate Middleton-esque long-sleeved number, or warm up with a luxurious cosy jacket or wrap? Whether you prefer sleek and simple, or want to go full Game of Thrones in faux fur, there are a variety of choices to look amazing whilst staying cosy!
- Consider your guests
Whilst it’s your special day, it’s important to make sure your loved ones are happy and comfortable too. Offer mulled wine or hot chocolate to keep everyone warm during photographs and make sure no one is left hanging about in the snow or rain. Providing somewhere secure to store damp jackets and wraps could also be a great way of keeping everyone warm and dry!
