Winter Wedding Flowers
Winter wedding flowers beg to be very special. It’s a naturally festive time of the year so it’s understandable that the wedding decorations and flowers will also be rather festive. Color schemes for a Winter wedding are easy to choose. Most couples choose to go with red and white, while others pick green and white, or even all three of these colors.
Some of the more popular flowers used for Winter weddings include red or white roses, chrysanthemums, red or white carnations, white snowball mums, calla lilies, amaryllis, white daisies, hydrangea, magnolia, freesia, gardenias, and poinsettias. These are all perfect Winter wedding flowers.
Of course, you will also want to have the appropriate accessories for these floral arrangements. Some of the more fitting ones are holly leaves, pine cones, berries, evergreen branches, fir branches, ivy leaves, pomegranates, glittery snowflakes, small Winter ornament balls, and seasonal ribbons. These work beautifully when making centerpieces for the tables at the reception, too.
Winter weddings are always an added excitement to this already bustling time of the year. People love planning weddings around this holiday, even setting the date for either Winter Eve or Winter Day. Although, a wedding held on Winter Day is typically more of a family and close friends’ event. These are occasions when the decorated holiday tree can be part of the Winter wedding flowers.
While they may not actually be flowers, many Winter weddings will make use of miniature lights either white or colored, to add to the decorations of the wedding venue. These strings of lights are typically woven through some small evergreen trees or branches. It makes the ceremony even more magical as the twinkling of these lights highlight the already special atmosphere created by the flowers and accessories.
Candles are a large part of all Winter decorations so it’s not surprising that they would also be used in conjunction with the Winter wedding flowers to make the ceremony even more beautiful and special. If you are going to be in a place where there could be a breeze, though, you might want to consider using electric candles if they are going to be a part of center pieces.
Evening weddings are always some what more other worldly than daytime ones, but Winter wedding ceremonies that are held at night are even more amazing. With the twinkling lights and all the beautiful flowers, it can look just like a fairyland, and the bride will be the fairy princess in her beautiful gown. The perfect Winter wedding flowers will pull everything together so that it becomes a day for everyone to remember.
Something to consider if you are planning a Winter wedding is that you won’t really have to come up with a theme. It is pretty much planned out for you ahead of time.
