Décor & Flowers

Winter is a gorgeous time of year to get married but those crisp days do mean less light so couples have to get creative when it comes to their lighting. Worry not, there are so many pretty ways to light up your winter wedding from traditional candles and candelabras dotted around the venue to more inventive lighting displays like sparkly dance floors and twinkling backdrops. Letter Lights are another popular trend that are going nowhere and are the perfect way to add some personality and some added sparkle to your occasion. Check out more gorgeous ideas below…
