Winter is the season for icy colors and soft palettes. But, it’s also the perfect time to introduce hints of color, whether romantic hues or bold colors.
Bouquets are often filled with white flowers (roses, peonies, anemones) with natural elements (succulents, astilbe, baby’s breath, lamb’s ear, tallow berries).
And, sometimes, they feature those bold colors, like red roses, ranunculas, calla lilies, hypericum berries and chrysanthemums.
When picking flowers for your winter bouquet, be sure to work with your florist to find flowers that are in season. This guarantees a fresher product at a relatively decent price. Use colors that best fit with your overall look and feel. And, don’t be afraid to use rich colors like reds and plums.

A winter wedding does not have to equal soft, iridescent colors. Get bold with a strong use of color. Especially in your flower arrangements. And, go with soft hues when necessary (like when your linens are a bold red).

If only more couples would pursue a winter wedding. Then we could share more beautiful winter details like these!
The palette of white, silver and gray combined with the candlelight provides a luminous effect in the room. And, how can you not love those long tables?

Well, sometimes it’s just a bit too chilly and snowy to wear a hot pair of stilettos. Nothing wrong with a cozy pair of Uggs!

I arrived home late on New Year’s Even from my vacation in Florida and happened to wake up on New Year’s Day to find a dusting of snow on the ground and flakes continuing to fall. I must say, even though it was 12 degrees (brrr…), there is something very romantic about snow falling.
And, there is something even more romantic about snow falling on your wedding day.
