Snowflake Theme Winter Wedding

February 22, 2013 knotfor

There are many ways to make a winter wedding beautiful and magical, and one of them is with a snowflake theme. When creating the perfect snowflake theme wedding, think about sparkling white snowflakes floating to the ground against an inky blue night sky. Here are some tips to help you create the perfect look for your special day:

Invitations

There are many options when choosing your invitations. You could go for navy blue invitations with white text, adorned with tiny white embossed snowflakes. Or, go for winter white invitations engraved with snowflake shapes and dark blue text. You could even select invitations that are snowflake-shaped for an artistic and creative look!

Attire

When choosing your bridal attire for a winter wedding, be sure to select something warm to wrap around your shoulders like a white faux fur stole or cape. Reflect your wedding theme with gorgeous silver jewelry and a sparkling snowflake pendant suspended on a delicate chain. You can even wear a glittering tiara in your hair to make you feel like a princess! Present your bridesmaids with a snowflake pendant as well so they’ll fit in with the theme. Great colors for bridesmaids dresses include navy or midnight blue.Decorations If the Christmas season is near, decorate some real or artificial miniature evergreen trees with crystal snowflake ornaments. Hang plastic or crystal snowflakes from the ceiling using clear thread or wire. Try either a dark blue or silver tablecloth, or try one that’s dark blue with a snowflake print. There’s no better accompaniment to a snowflake themed wedding than miniature snowmen figurines on each table for a cute whimsical look. Drape the pews with either dark blue velvet accented with white lace or go for pure white tulle to simulate a snowy appearance. Rather than flower petals, have your flower girl sprinkle snowflake shaped white confetti on a deep blue carpet before you make your grand entrance!
