So, it’s going to be a Christmastime wedding. Congratulations, an excellent choice of season! Winter is romantic, and when it snows, well… nothing compares to the beauty. The other benefit is – of course – having access to fully decorated venues. That’s a major money saver. The only thing is… the decor is usually red-and-green, the typical Christmas colours. And, as we once heard on Don’t Tell The Bride, it sometimes may feel like ‘work Christmas do’ rather than a wedding. So what’s a bride to do? We say – don’t feel blue. Go blue! A blue Christmas wedding is still festive, has that regal vibe to it, and pairs beautifully with gold (much better than silver, unless you’re going for an Ice Queen theme). The pictures we found for you below should be proof just how gorgeous this wedding theme can be.
Certainly, if you are unsure whether this is wintry enough, the food and drinks you serve will do the trick for you beautifully, while you concentrate on making the decor faithful to your idea. A pale blue wedding dress is stuff dreams are made of. Another thing – don’t be scared to hang as many baubles as you like, wherever they fit. Finally, there’s always the music: pick a few favourites and also some lesser known carols to make your blue Christmas wedding even more touching.
