Winter is coming quickly! For couples planning a winter wedding, now is the time to make tough choices about wedding colors. From navy to Champaign, couples find that there's a rainbow of possibilities to choose from. Below are our favorites. These winter wedding color suggestions are elegant, sophisticated and rich in romance.
Pewter and Sage Green
These colors incorporate the soft, subtle tones seen in nature during the coldest months of winter. Pewter has the moody romantic look of storm clouds on a winter day, while sage reminds us that even during the coldest times of year, life goes on. To incorporate pewter and sage green into a ceremony, look to natural decorations like twigs, log furniture and sprigs from evergreen plants. Drape the tables in garlands made of natural greenery to fill the room with the scents of the forest. A bridal gown or bridesmaids gowns decorated in gray pearls will help add to the effect.
Shining Gold and Red Wine
Gold is a glamorous, energetic color that can be symbolic of wealth, riches and comfort. Meanwhile, red wine is deep, gentle and rich, standing in direct contrast with the shine of gold. These colors are a favorite in night weddings, because they contribute to the rich ambience and deep romance of the occasion. Couples thinking about using these colors may consider a small, intimate wedding beside a fire, with a long dinner to follow. For flowers, traditional roses are best.
Champagne and Eggplant
Champaign is a romantic neutral that can be paired with just about anything, and we find that Champagne bridesmaid gowns are especially elegant against a snowy winter backdrop. Paired with eggplant colored shawls, flowers, lipstick and bow ties, these winter colors can be flattering for everyone in the wedding party.
When picking Champagne and eggplant colored decorations, keep the accessories simple. Think: soft, satiny table cloths in a soft neutral shade, deep purple roses and decorative dishes filled with colored pieces of glass. Pay attention to the small details. Scattering the reception table with colored jewels and loose petals from fresh flowers is a good way to reinforce your theme.
White and Navy
White is a daring wedding color, especially in winter when everything is coated in white, fluffy snow. We recommend these colors for couples seeking to have their ceremony outdoors in a winter wonderland. White berries, white flowers and white pearls are the perfect accessories for these lovely wedding colors. To incorporate blue into the mix, look for bridesmaid dresses made of thick blue velvet, and consider giving guests small blue blankets to drape over their laps during the ceremony.
