Even though we’re still living in the wonderful time of fall, before we know it, winter will be here. Along with enjoying typical winter activities such as sledding and skiing, winter is also another great time for gorgeous weddings. It’s less popular than some other wedding seasons like Spring and Fall. But it has just as much beauty to offer! If you’re planning on having your wedding during the time of winter wonderland, here are some ways to make your big day as unique as possible.

Have a Hot Chocolate Bar

We all know that wintertime is the best and most enjoyable time to indulge in a delicious cup of hot chocolate. If you really want to make your wedding extra special, set up a hot chocolate bar for your guests. With toppings you can offer such as coconut, chocolate chips, marshmallows and perhaps alcohol for those of age, this will be a great addition to your wedding and will keep your guests both warm and hydrated throughout the night.

Add in Unexpected Color

While winter weddings are common for including typical colors such as green, white and silver, if you want to add uniqueness to your wedding, include unexpected colors! This can be done in several ways. One way is through adding in colorful wedding accessories. If you want your jewelry to stand out, dare to include a pair of emerald or purple earrings and pair it with a multi-colored necklace. If you’re feeling extra adventurous, think about including bright colors into your hairstyle. By applying a hair coloring conditioner, you have the option to dye your hair whatever color and however intense a shade you desire! Whether you want to include a colorful shawl into your outfit or add in color throughout your makeup and bridal hairstyle, adding in bright colors will be a great way to add a little something extra to your day.

Offer Your Guests Blankets

Whether you plan on having your wedding ceremony inside or outside, with wintertime, it’s extremely easy for your guests to be cold. In order to add a cozy touch and for your guests to not have to rely on their winter coats, offer each and every one of your guests a blanket. Not only will these blankets help to keep your guests warm throughout the night, but they can double as wedding favors as well. You can offer plaid blankets to fit the cozy winter theme or have each blanket monogrammed with you and your partner’s name. Whatever you decide to do, offering your guests blankets will definitely be useful throughout the night.

Have a Carriage Ride

What could be better to include in a winter wedding than a romantic, seasonal carriage ride? This won’t only give your guests a chance to enjoy the beautiful outdoor scenery, but it will be the unexpected and unique experience your guests will never forget. You can choose to have it during the wedding reception, at the end of the night or even possibly use it as a mode of transportation for your guests from the ceremony to the reception!
