Winter Wonderland Wedding

Ideas for a Winter Wonderland Wedding

Just hear those sleigh bells ringing - or are they wedding bells? Wintry weddings give you the chance to cozy up the bride and groom on a sleigh ride to the church - or the reception. That's only one of the ideas for a Winter Wonderland wedding that we've gathered here.

The setting for your wedding can offer lots of ideas for winter wonderland wedding decorations. If you're lucky enough to live near the mountains, you can choose to have your reception at a ski lodge in the mountains, overlooking a dramatic winter landscape of frozen hills and frosted woods.

Echo the theme inside with white on white decorations. Snowy table linens, sparkling crystal and polished silver create a winter wonderland feeling inside the hall as well as out. Sprinkle iridescent snowflake confetti on the tables and hang glittering icicles from the ceiling on fishing line. Light them from below with rows of votive candles or directed landscape lighting for a dramatic effect.

Centerpiece Ideas for a Winter Wonderland Wedding
For a dramatic contrast with snowy white and silver, try massing several brilliant crimson poinsettias in the center of each table. If you'd prefer something a bit more subtle and in keeping with the outdoor wintry landscape, contact a local ice sculptor to have him make ice sculptures for each reception table. Wedding doves with intertwining hearts glittering in the candlelight will add an elegant, romantic touch to your tables.

For those that like whimsy, here's an idea for a Winter Wonderland wedding with a more casual, playful feel. Mount a mirror on a crystal cake platter and wrap the pedestal in white roses and holly. Pick up little figurines of figure skaters at your local dollar store, or order them online and create a skating pond to bring smiles to your guests faces.


Some other ideas for a winter wonderland wedding play on other popular wedding themes. Love the beach? Who says you can't get married on the beach in mid-December? Many harbor and yacht clubs are happy to book weddings during the winter, and offer venues with a spectacular view of the wintry ocean.

The same holds true of winter harbor cruises - you can often rent a harbor cruiser for the evening and have an elegant, catered wedding at sea complete with a wintry moonlit walk to view the incredible brilliance of the stars overhead.

Finally, if you really want to get married ON the beach, look into tent rentals. Many of the tents available for rent for events can be heated to provide a cozy, warm retreat for your guests to dance and toast your new match.

Ideas for a Winter Wonderland Wedding In The Country
You can make your winter wonderland wedding really special by holding it at an old fashioned country inn. Hire a horse-drawn sleigh to take you from the church to the reception hall, and cozy up for your first married ride together beneath a cozy fur. Venues like the Publick House in Sturbridge, Massachusetts will even put on a traditional Colonial wedding, complete with luminaries to light the path and authentic syllabub to toast the new couple's health.
