Christmas Wedding Planning Guide
5 important points to consider
- Theme: A wedding's theme and the colors used to decorate are crucial things to consider. Colors linked with the season include red and green, as well as silver and white, gold and cream, and silver and white.
- Venue: Your wedding venue is one of the most significant elements to consider. As well as considering the weather, you should consider the venue's aesthetic attractiveness throughout the winter months. Even if there isn't much snow, it's worth going to see how your photographs turn out.
- Catering: A hot dinner is the best on a cold day, therefore this is likely to be a key component of the day. Snowflakes could be the frosting on the cake, in addition to presenting typical Christmas meals and beverages like eggnog or hot chocolate.
- Clothing: You will be spending most of the day indoors, so consider adding a removable layer to your clothing to avoid seeming frozen in any outdoor shots. A stylish throw or coat can keep you warm and stylish.
- Flowers: Winter flowers might be more expensive, so you may need to be more inventive with your flower choices. This year's floral arrangements could have a Christmas theme.
Christmas wedding ceremony ideas:
Nothing beats a Christmas wedding for romanticism. This is a great time of year because the holidays are magical, full of love, hope, and tranquility.
Here are some ideas for wedding preparations.
A horse and carriage
Arriving in a horse-drawn carriage is a popular means of transportation for brides. Because this is a Christmas wedding, a sleigh ride should be considered. After the wedding, the bride and groom can travel to their reception destination. This is a beautiful concept for a romantic wedding photo.
Cinnamon, Spice, and all things nice
Consider the scent of cinnamon and spices wafting through the air surrounding the wedding site. A warm, spicy aroma that the whole bridal party may enjoy.
Carols
Print Christmas song sheets on vintage, distressed parchment paper and tie them with red satin ribbons for a unique appearance.
Decorations for a Christmas Wedding Reception
Utilize votive or scented candles as table and buffet centerpieces, which will be ignited after the couple arrives. These reindeer tea light stands from Amazon are adorable and unique!
Use Christmas ornaments as place cards. Your guests will remember your wedding every time they set their ornaments on their Christmas tree.
These rustic gnome ornament place cards from Amazon have a lovely folk art vibe.
Rather than a star or angel on top of a Christmas tree, use a bride and groom.
Decorate with seasonal flowers. The greatest choices are red roses with poinsettia, holly, and ivy. Baby's Breath adds a hint of white. Arrange flowers with gold-sprayed leaves and pinecones. Or crimson rose petals with gold or silver sequins on the tables.
Winter Wonderland
Ice and snow themes are popular for many seasonal ceremonies and receptions. The simplicity of the snowflake and icicle motif is charming.
Christmas Wedding Favors
Christmas wedding reception favors come in a plethora of varieties. Consider getting something cute and trendy that your guests will want to take home with them.
These Christmas stockings from Amazon make great table decorations as well as favors. You can candy and treats or gift as is.
Consider customized wedding-themed Christmas Tree Ornaments that will serve as a keepsake. Print both the bride and groom's names on the ornaments so that guests can hang them on their own Christmas trees after the ceremony.
Another great idea for party favors are Christmas scented candles, which guests can take home and burn while they dine at their own Christmas table the next day. Tie tinsel ribbons together with a holly or pine branch to make it look more seasonally appropriate. Attach a thank-you note to each favor to avoid handwriting all of the thank-you notes after the honeymoon is over.Consider crackers, winter-themed personalised mint tins, and gold favor boxes finished with seasonal ribbon. There is a lot of variety, and there is no reason for it to look tacky. For the kids, you could give them gold confectionery favor boxes or a Father Christmas-shaped favor box. Fill plush organza bags in silver or blue with silver confectionery.
Keep in mind that your wedding favors should always coordinate with your other ideas so that your reception tables appear orderly and 'together.' Choose silver wedding favor boxes with navy ribbon if the bridesmaid dresses are silver and the waistcoats are navy. Whatever you decide, make sure your colors are well thought out, and your wedding reception tables will look festive and bright as long as you don't have too many different ideas running at the same time!

Flowers for a Christmas Wedding
As well as the familiar Christmas Poinsettia other winter flowers, depending on the season, can also be a good match for a Christmas wedding. A popular choice is the Amaryllis, a tall, large-flowered plant that blooms in a variety of bright reds and whites. Traditional wedding flowers, such as Roses, Tulips, or Lilies, can also be used. To bring the festive season into your wedding reception, accent your main flowers with holly and berries.
Keep in mind that many flowers are out of season in the winter, so if you want to send flowers, you may need to consult with a florist ahead of time.
Christmas Wedding Dresses for the Bride, Groom, Bridesmaids, and Groomsmen
Groomsmen
For a festive touch, add some holly to the groom's buttonhole. It's a subtle but effective way of including Christmas in the wedding. For the ultimate Christmas feel, have the groom wear a deep colored waistcoat or even a decorative cravat, such as a Christmas print. A subtle change would be to add some Christmas cufflinks to the groom's standard attire.
Brides
In addition to the obvious, the bride could wear a deep red gown or a red or green velvet hooded cape over her ivory, white, or champagne gown. The bride's bouquet, with fire ice roses paired with red roses and Gypsophila, is an excellent place to incorporate a Christmas theme. There are a variety of flowers available that would look lovely in a Christmas bouquet.
Bridesmaids
Deep burgundy or very dark green bridesmaids dresses are ideal for any Christmas wedding, but if these colors aren't for you, you could go with a neutral color and add a gold, copper, bronze, silver, red, or green accent. As a wedding buttonhole or corsage, holly and mistletoe look lovely. Some holly could be incorporated into the bride's hair on the wedding day. The same is true for flower girls and bridesmaids.
Red Tartan, like Buffalo Plaid, is an excellent choice for a Christmas wedding theme. Sashes can be used to add these colors and patterns.
