When you think of weddings you typically think of spring, summer or fall, but a winter wedding can be incredibly beautiful as well! December and January are not known to be a popular month for weddings, but we think it’s highly underrated! There are many great aspects for a wedding in December or January, here are just a few of our favorite inspirations for winter wedding:
Holiday Spirit
One of the first things that comes to mind when you think of winter is Christmas! Christmas is such a fun time of year and has many elements that can be perfect for a winter wedding. Classic Christmas colors are sure to have your guests in the holiday spirit! (Reds, greens and golds are the best to capture that christmassy feel. Burgundy is a great alternative to a bright red as well)
