Unique Trends for a Winter Wedding

There is something about a winter wedding that brings out all of the unique and creative trends! Winter is the least common season for a wedding because it comes with more challenges than any other time of the year - the weather, the lighting and the colors. However, this allows for more amazing solutions to create an epic wedding, with lights, candles, hot chocolate bars and wooden decor that will ultimately transform a venue into a wedding that your guests will never forget.

Enjoy a few trends we think would make your winter wedding one that you will cherish forever!


Neon Signs

We love a good neon sign any time of the year, but they seem to add a unique touch to winter weddings. The best part?! They’re completely customizable to fit any wedding theme and aesthetic - choosing the color, size and lettering. Whether you want some as simple as your initials, or something more elaborate with a saying that defines your love for one another. Bachelor alum, Lauren Bushnell (now Lauren Lane) even used one at her wedding last month!


Drip Cakes

If you have a giant sweet tooth like me, cake is probably one of the things you look forward to at a wedding…so why not make it fun? Adding drizzles of icing along the layers of your cake creates a whimsical touch to your winter wedding. It makes you want to just take your finger and sample the icing for yourself. Go ahead, it’s your day, you can do whatever you want!


Lights, Lights, Lights

Seeing as winter tends to be the darkest season of the year where most of your wedding will be at night, lights are the perfect decor. You can have so much fun creating gorgeous hanging installations, candle arrangements and centerpieces that would completely transform a space and create an epic backdrop for photos!


Hot Chocolate Bar

Food and drink stations have become one of the most popular trends for weddings in general, but what’s the best winter drink for all ages? hot chocolate. It will keep your guests warm and pair nicely with your desserts. Providing toppings like peppermint, chocolate chips, marshmallows, and of course, whipped cream would be a huge hit (especially with the kids) and you could even have the option to add Bailey’s or peppermint schnapps for the adults.


Nature Inspired Decor

There are so many benefits to having nature inspired decor at your winter wedding. First of all, its definitely on theme for the season, but it would also save you money while saving the planet as well. All of your materials could be found outside, and you have a chance to get creative and crafty. Not only would your winter wedding be unique, but also provide a cozy feeling of winter nostalgia.
