Young couples are increasingly deciding to organize a wedding reception in winter. There are many reasons for this - from lower prices for renting the hall to the fairy-tale aura and Christmas decorations. Getting ready for winter wedding in December or January, however, we should remember that all elements of the outfit must not only be beautiful, but also protect against low temperatures. So what wedding accessories should a winter bride choose?

Flowers for a wedding in winter

It would seem that the choice of flowers in winter is very limited - fortunately, these are only appearances! We have many year-round and greenhouse varieties of flowers at our disposal, which will be perfect for a winter bouquet. Very popular and resistant to low temperatures are, for example, roses, carnations, amaryllis, freesias, tulips, or reliable gypsophila. One of the latest wedding trends are bouquets made of succulents! Especially at this time of year, a composition of live plants and accessories in the form of fabrics, lace, beads, jewelry, feathers, as well as cones, wild rose or pine or spruce twigs works well.

When it comes to colors, white, blue, silver and gray dominate, reminiscent of ice palaces and the Snow Queen. However, especially in the case of a bouquet, we can break them with a more intense color accent. The colors referring to Christmas are also very popular, i.e. red, burgundy, gold and green. “Brides getting married in winter are happy to add elements associated with the theme of the forest and Christmas to the bouquet.

Most often there is a wild rose, but also holly or cones. Such bouquets are reminiscent of Christmas decorations and blend in beautifully with the decor of the room during the Christmas season,” suggests wedding expert Joanna Hoc-Kopiej. Wedding hall in Dwór Korona Karkonoszy has beautiful, purple walls that perfectly fit into the style of Christmas. Extras on of course winter wedding It doesn't have to be exclusively related to the holidays. Especially since the party can take place after Christmas.

Accessories for the wedding - outerwear

Outerwear is the element that particularly distinguishes the winter bride's outfit. Properly selected, it will not only provide comfort during an outdoor photo session, but will also be a beautiful complement to the entire image. Short sheepskin coats and waist-length fur coats that show off the bottom of the wedding dress are popular. During light frosts, we can also opt for a fur stole or a scarf - they will be a perfect complement to the winter image.

However, don't be afraid to choose longer cuts! A long winter coat will not only be warm, but will also look beautiful in photos. We can even choose a model that will imitate the wedding dress train. The bride in such an outfit does not have to feel uncomfortable. If all the accessories match the overall styling and outside, white fluff will cover the roads and trees, the Bride will look like a real Snow Queen. Won't that make the wedding atmosphere truly magical?

Accessories for the wedding - headgear for the Bride and Groom

In addition to the outerwear, accessories in the form of headgear and gloves will be equally important for the comfort of the Bride and Groom. Brides are sometimes afraid of how the hat or earmuffs will look in the pictures. However, if we only compose them with the rest of the outfit and accessories, they will become our advantage. The case is similar in the case of gloves. Ladies, however, also have a slightly forgotten element of clothing to choose from, which is the muff. Traditionally, it was a set with a coat or fur, and was made of the same material. It looks incredibly fabulous and elegant.

What's more, a veil that does not protect against the cold can be replaced with a wreath that will have a whole range of winter plants. Of course, for the Bride's comfort, we cannot use even conifers for this, after all, the future married woman cannot look like an Advent wreath on such a solemn day. However, if we use intense, burgundy roses and carnations, the headgear will look great against the background of the wedding dress!

Let's not forget about Mr. His headgear can also be very elegant. We can offer him a dignified hat or flat cap that will protect him from the cold, but at the same time will make the future spouse an icon of style that day.

Accessories for the wedding - horse carriage

Who of us does not dream of arriving at the wedding in a beautiful, atmospheric carriage, which, equipped with majestic horses, will bring a lot of smile and surprise to the guests' faces? The bride could then feel like Cinderella, who arrived at the ball in such a beautiful carriage. The carriage is perfect for a winter wedding, especially when we can only see snow-capped mountain peaks around. It will also perfectly fit into the convention of a highlander wedding - in this case, a horse-drawn carriage carrying the bride and groom is not only a great addition to the wedding, but above all a multi-generational tradition that must be fulfilled. Dwór Korona Karkonoszy is easily able to organize this type of transport for the Bride and Groom.

However, wedding accessories are not only certain attributes that accompany the Bride and Groom and guests during the wedding ceremony. It is also invitations, wedding photos and a music video that are the real culmination of the day.

If we are organizing a wedding in winter, accessories for a winter wedding in the form of invitations should also be kept in the climate of winter. If the wedding takes place in the mountains, we can additionally weave mountain landscapes or a forest theme into the invitations. A wedding video can be shot partly in a mountain glade, and an engagement or wedding session can be carried out surrounded by mountain trails. Such a mysterious theme will add a touch of magic to your photos.

As you can see, winter wedding it doesn't limit our options at all, on the contrary. It gives us the opportunity to show our imagination, creativity and ingenuity. We hope that the inspirations from this article will make your winter wedding original and unique. The effects are often truly magical, and both the bride and groom and the guests will remember such a wedding for many years.
