Let’s talk about winter weddings for a second, because we don’t think they get nearly enough credit.
And with what was *hopefully* the last snowfall of the season last week, we think it’s the perfect time to jump back into how much we adore off-season celebrations 😍
We wrote a whole blog post on them, the good, the bad and the ugly.
Here’s a little recap of why we love them:
- The coziness and atmosphere is unmatched! The candles, the fires, the intimate feel of all your favorite people gathered close indoors. It’s truly something special.
- The decor possibilities are downright dreamy!! Deep, rich colors, like burgundy, emerald, navy, and plum that would feel heavy in summer feel absolutely perfect against a winter backdrop. Lush greenery, berries, pinecones, candles everywhere, velvet textures, metallic accents, twinkly lights… the options are endless and they all have a warmth and richness that photographs beautifully!
- The peak season stress just melts away. If you’ve been stressing about your locking down your dream venue or your first-choice vendors because everything books up over a year ahead of time, a winter date might open up options you didn’t realize you had!
