Ideas for Winter Wedding Centerpieces
Winter weddings can be stunningly beautiful. There are many ways to reflect the beauty of the season in your wedding ceremony and reception. One way is with beautiful winter-inspired table centerpieces. Read on for some creative centerpiece ideas to make your tables look their very best.
Captivating Candles
Candlelight is a classic way to bring sophistication and beauty to any table. There are many ways to make fantastic centerpieces using candles. Try nestling a chunky, oversized candle in the color of your choice in a pile of fake snow. Great color schemes for winter weddings include midnight blue and silver, or holiday-inspired shades like emerald and cranberry.
Or, take one of those oversized candles and surround it with a garland of green ivy and holly berries. You could also try evergreen garland accented with silk poinsettia blossoms to add a festive look.
Floating candles are always beautiful. Fill a decorative crystal or cut glass bowl with water (add color with food coloring if desired) then float the candles on top. The light of the flames dancing off the water and crystal brings warmth and allure to any table.
Holiday Inspired Items
You could try large snowglobes in the center of each table for a whimsical and fun look. Or, go for snowmen figurines decorated to look like a bride and groom. Even miniature evergreen trees accented with fake snow and adorned with ornaments of your choice make cute centerpieces.
Floral Fantasies
Flowers are always a classic choice for table centerpieces. Go for silk flowers, which are always in bloom and last forever! The silk flowers available on the market today are just as gorgeous as the real thing. When choosing flowers for your table centerpieces, decide if you want to go for a frosty look or something classic like red and green.
If your wedding is more of a Winter Wonderland type theme, go for pale blue and white silk flowers in a silver vase. However if your wedding is more holiday inspired, try arrangements featuring evergreen, pine cones, holly berries and red blossoms nestled with lush green foliage. You can even spray a light dusting of fake snow on the arrangements.
Sparkling Crystal
Clear crystal gives the appearance of frosty ice. Try crystal or glass figurines or even crystal evergreen trees. You can even find crystal trees that come lit with colored lights. Ice sculptures are an alternative to crystal, but they can be messy and expensive.
As you can see, there are many different ways to spruce up your wedding tables. When choosing centerpieces, go for items that reflect the color scheme as well as the theme of your wedding.
