Winter Wedding Flowers and Decor

Winter theme weddings can be uber chic and ethereal. Here are some ideas to create your wonderland….

  • Color palette - new-fallen snow - use whites and creams accented with silver or gold; winter sparkle - ice blue or navy accented with silver; black tie - black is especially suited for a winter wedding when paired with white, silver or gold.

  • Go glam - deck your halls with crystal detailing for a sparkling winter effect-adorning linens and chair covers or sprinkled over table tops. The result is deliciously glam and oh so fab.

  • Liberal use of candle light - the glow will add warmth and elegance.

  • Holiday theme - decorate with potted evergreens, pine branches, wreathes, poinsettias, ornaments, bells, or twinkling white lights.

  • Add interest and texture - incorporate greenery and/or tiny crystals into your arrangements.

  • Creative bouquets - instead of flowers, carry tea lights, votive candles or cascading bells.

  • Tossing alternative - have your flower girl throw silver glitter or sprinkle fake snow.

  • Winter Flowers In Season White stephanotis, poinsettia, holly, amaryllis, camellias, roses.

A wedding cake inspired by The Dark Knight
I just had to share this wedding cake—titled “Joker’s Revenge”—sent to me by a friend.   It’s so crazy, yet so creative at the same time! This couple definitely  gets points for not playing it safe. (You can’t really tell in this  photo, but the bride and groom toppers even have their faces painted  like Heath Ledger’s Joker.)
What about you—is your wedding cake going to  have a theme, or are you just going for plain-old pretty?

I love this “paint-themed” wedding which was dreamt up by my friend Helen. The invitations paid homage to paint swatches and the favors were miniature paint cans filled with candy.

Helen’s wedding was held in an old paint factory that has been converted into an exhibition space. The building had a real industrial feel to it and she wanted to have invitations that were contemporary and that had reference to the paint factory without being too corny.

She made her own favors by purchasing small 125ml paint tins online, making her own labels and filling the tins with yummy treats.
