Ready or not, the winter months are quickly approaching! It’s hard not to appreciate the intrinsic beauty that defines this special season and we couldn’t think of a better way to celebrate it than with a beautiful winter wedding! Brides-to-be need not fear, BHLDN has got you covered with three whimsical winter color palettes that will make you forget all about any brisk air or blustering flurries on your big day.
The first weeks of these cold-weather months are the the perfect opportunity to embrace a “deep winter” palette featuring the rich, saturated hues of fall mixed with some lighter, airier tones. The Penelope Gown makes for the perfect muse when it comes to this palette as its bronze colored lining brings a hint of warmth to its “icy” tulle skirt.
“Deep winter” bridesmaids can complement their bride with darker berry shades, taupes and browns that are reminiscent of those found in nature.
Incorporate elements of rustic romance into your “deep winter” wedding with wooden flower boxes, earth tone centerpieces and brushed metal table numbers. Dark floral centerpieces are also a great way to achieve this look.
As temperatures drop, brides can embrace the crispness in the air with a “cool winter” palette featuring extreme lights and darks. In this case, a simple silhouette like that of the Livia Gown is the perfect blank canvas from which to build a classic look for your big day.
To create the contrast that is characteristic of a “cool winter” palette, dress your maids in black, dark navy, or less saturated blue greys for a look that’s cold-weather chic.
When it comes to impressing “cool winter” wedding guests, look for cake accessories with a classic feel and save the drama for your table settings. Vases, votives and table numbers in eye-catching metallics are the perfect way to emulate the sparkle created by a fresh blanket of winter snow.
If you are having a winter wedding but prefer to use brighter colors, opt for a “clear winter” palette. Gowns that feature illusion necks/backs or delicate lace overlays like the Francine Gown are the perfect way to set the tone for this playful palette.
Allow your “clear winter” maids to show their true colors with dresses in shades of tan, blush or even sea foam.
Translate the concept of a “clear winter” into seasonally appropriate tabletop décor with transparent glass vessels and lightly tinted drink ware.
Whether you’re a “deep”, “cool” or “clear” bride, there are endless options for embracing the winter season when it comes to your big day. No matter the colors, shapes or styles you may choose just remember… you’ve got your love to keep you warm!
