Winter Wedding, How to Make It Perfect?

Even though spring and summer tend to be the most popular wedding seasons due to their warm temperatures and blossoming flowers, there is something truly charming, serene and utterly magical about a winter wedding celebration. Whether it’s the sparkling white backdrop or the silence and the peace of the falling snow, winter weddings are always romantic and absolutely beautiful.

If you’ve decided on a gorgeous winter celebration and are wondering how you can make it more unique and memorable, here are the best ways to elevate your winter wedding.

1. Keep your guests warm and cosy

When winter comes around, we all love being bundled up in chunky knits and furry and fuzzy materials, especially when snowflakes start to fall, which is why a winter wedding celebration is the ideal time to amplify the cosiness. A great idea would be to ask your servers to greet your guests at the entrance with a beautiful silver tray featuring classic mulled wine or a signature hot toddy, for that bonfire night feel. If you decided to have an outdoor ceremony during the cold weather, scatter a few woven baskets filled with knit scarves and mittens around the venue, and place some throw blankets on the seats to keep your guests warm. A warming hut reminiscent of the mountainside is also ideal for an outdoor bar area.

2. Choose the best bridal outfit

Whether your ceremony is held indoors or outdoors, you are most likely going to spend a lot of time outside getting your photos taken, which is why it’s essential to stay warm and comfortable. Winter weddings are the ideal time to opt for high necklines and elaborate sleeves, which might be too hot in the warmer months, along with elegant gowns adorned with beautiful wintery details, such as sequins,

pearls, crystals and feathers. A stylish wool cape or a cropped faux fur coat is also a must for staying warm and cosy. When it comes to accessories, a great idea would be to opt for beautiful Moon magic jewellery. Made with bright, pastel moon stones combined with silver or rose gold metals, these jewellery items are perfect for completing the winter wonderland bridal fantasy.

3. Opt for festive decorations

A winter wedding is the perfect time to opt for a holiday season colour palette, whether that means pairing whites with soft pastels, combining black and white with silver or gold, or even choosing seasonal reds and greens. No matter which colour scheme you select, make sure to incorporate it in everything from your invitations to the venue decor elements, to create a more cohesive theme throughout the wedding. As layering adds more interest to your design, don’t be afraid to pair fresh flower centrepieces with candles of varying heights or scatter some faux snow over your table linens, while adding texture with beautiful faux fur throws around the venue. It’s exactly the small yet intricate details like this that will elevate your wedding decor.

4. Offer fun seasonal drinks

Having a drink that feels festive will help get all of your guests in the right mood for a winter party. If you decide to offer a signature cocktail at the reception that truly embodies the spirit of the season, you can try something new and interesting, such as a ginger snap martini, cranberry mimosa or ginger bread eggnog. It would also be a wonderful idea to offer a cocktail station with a dispenser and elegant glassware, or even decide to serve the drinks in individual dishes sculpted from ice, which will keep the cocktails chilled, while providing visual appeal. Ice sculptures are a beautiful way to elevate a winter wedding celebration, and they add a truly glamorous touch to any decor.

5. Choose a tasty wintery dessert

To continue on the seasonal theme, take the traditional aspects of a wedding, and put some fun, customized wintery spins on them. Surprise your guests with something unique, such as a hot cocoa station filled with small, seasonally inspired desserts. Instead of the classic tiered wedding cake, keep the cold weather in mind and opt for a warm, molten cake instead. Don’t be afraid to try something new

and get creative with your menu options, as it’s exactly this uniqueness and personalisation that will make your wedding day memorable, and your guests feel taken care of and loved.

From walking down the aisle through the fluffy snow, feeling the crisp air on your cheeks, to sipping champagne with your guests next to the warmth of the fireplace, a winter wedding is a truly magical experience that can only be elevated and improved with these incredible celebratory tips.

Wedding Trends 2020 You Need to Know

Wedding Trends 2020 You Need to Know

Weddings change every year and there are always new details that you can incorporate into your big day. So how do you make your day stand out even more in the memories of your guests? By looking at the latest trends of course!

Trends, unlike themes, evolve and change every year. A trend might be the same at heart but it’s the way it’s being used throughout the years that will change. We’ve seen this with greenery, personalized details, and arbours over the last 2 years alone.

We love watching how couples make weddings their own with twists on existing themes, or even planting the seed for new ones. If you’re planning a wedding in 2020 or 2021, here are the most popular trends to keep an eye on as they develop this year.

Wedding apparels recommended:

wedding dresses, bridesmaid dresses, mother of the bride dresses

Greenery

Greenery really is the gift that keeps on giving. This is almost less of a yearly trend and something that has made itself a staple of weddings in Australia.

The focus on greenery extends across several different areas of a wedding. Pops of greenery in bouquets and buttonholes, arbours, hanging installations and centrepieces are all some of the ways couples are using greenery in their weddings.

Venues are also embracing the strong pull of nature in their decor. Keep an eye out for venues with indoor plant features to give you that greenery trend with suppliers you’re already using.

 Personalized details

Personalized details have also become a must-have at weddings. Every wedding will have details that have been personalized to a specific couple, so we’re talking about the details that are made publicly available or used in the decor.

Personalized signs are a big focus of this. The types of signs have changed over the years, such as neon, wood or acrylic, but the premise remains the same. A welcoming sign is a beautiful way to invite your guests into your big day.

We’ve also seen this trend merge into other elements of the wedding. Bomboniere and name placements have taken these details and modernized them. Make your place cards double as bomboniere with modern calligraphy on wood, acrylic or even stone.

Floral arbours

A big trend-setter across 2019 was the floral arbour. Wedding arbours or arches have been popular over the last few years but we really saw those floral elements come into play last year. As a result, we expect to see more floral arbours across 2020.

We’re also starting to see more unique arbours playing with other natural elements such as fruit as well. It will be interesting to watch how the arbour trend develops this year.

Private moments

One of the most common pieces of advice you’ll hear from previous couples is to make sure you spend time with your partner on your wedding day. Not just time with everyone else. Time to reflect on what has just happened because you just got married!

This is where private moments come in. More couples are scheduling in private moments for themselves on their wedding day, away from the eyes of all their guests. We’ve seen this demonstrated with first-look photoshoots as well as private vows.

This is still a developing trend. But in a world of public social media and hosting the perfect Insta-worthy wedding, we’ll be keeping an eye out to see how more couples are taking their weddings back for themselves.

Eco-friendly elements

Sustainable weddings and a focus on having eco-friendly elements are on the rise. In fact, 14% of all couples hosting a spring wedding said they were trying to be more eco-friendly with their big day.

The most popular and achievable ways to make your big day more environmentally friendly are to focus on booking local suppliers and having local and in-season fresh produce or flowers. You can also consider hiring items that can be reused rather than buying something as a once-off. And of course, we’re big fans of sustainable rose petal or leaf confetti.

As the industry paves the way for more sustainable options we hope this is one trend that is here to stay for the future.

Interactive food stations

We love our food and there has been a big increase in the focus of food at weddings over the last few years. External catering and more interactive or ‘serve yourself’  options aren’t just becoming more popular with couples. They’re also becoming more readily available with more options.

Food trucks are a big part of this. Grazing tables have also made interactive food a higher priority for weddings. Think about what statement you want to make with your food to see what style of interactive food will best serve you.

Pastel colours are on the rise

Move out of the way navy and burgundy! Well, not quite. The last 18 to 24 months have been all about moody colours at weddings. Navy and burgundy have been the big winners as the primary colour palette for weddings but it’s the secondary colour palettes that are going to bring the biggest change.

Brighter pastel colours such as blush are becoming more popular. White itself is already a staple balance colour across weddings and greenery and metallics are being used to supplement themes. With all this in mind, we can expect a combination of those moody colours with brighter pastels coming into the mix across 2020.

Introduction of Bridesmaids Duties and Jobs On Wedding Day

It’s a great honor to be asked to be a bridesmaid. During the wedding, you will have something to do to perfect a beautiful bride and wedding.

As a bridesmaid, your “on the day of” responsibilities aren’t massive, essentially you just need to stand there and look pretty, and make sure the bride looks even prettier! However, there are still one or two things you want to be sure to do:

Have your hair and makeup done like the bride would like you to. Wear pretty bridesmaid dress and shoes fit you most. Also, pay for this yourself unless it is the bride’s gift to you.

Recommend dress styles: strapless bridesmaid dresses, one shoulder bridesmaid dresses, off the shoulder bridesmaid dresses

If the bride wants you to have a full face of makeup and an updo, it is not unreasonable of her to request it, but it is also not unreasonable of you to ask her if you might be able to do it yourself or have a friend do it instead of the professionals because money is tight.

Help ensure the flower girl and ring bearer make it down the aisle in an orderly fashion. Sometimes little children do get stage fright; offer to walk them down yourself, or just pull a funny face and wipe away tears so that the little ‘uns can get down the aisle on time!

Help the bride look extra glam all the time – whether this means carrying her bouquet around between photos, carrying her train or her favorite lipstick for touch-ups – you are now the glamour squad and your number one priority is keeping her looking and feeling fantastic!

Get out on the dance floor and bust a move! Especially if the party is a slow starter, it is your job to dance. Enthusiastically.

Keep energetic and helpful on wedding day.

Consider Prom Dresses Material, Style, Comfort

Prom dresses are gorgeous and glamorous, but they can also be very uncomfortable. An uncomfortable prom dress can ruin your formal evening. That’s why you should consider not only the style and beauty of your eveningwear, but also the comfort level. Beauty doesn’t have to be painful. Fashion doesn’t have to ruin the most magical night of your high school life. Use the guide below to look elegant and feel great on your prom night.

 Prom Dresses for Comfort

When comparing prom dresses either online or at a formal eveningwear shop, consider the material of the dress, especially for the areas of your body where it needs to give a little. Prom dresses made of stretchy material in certain areas allow you to be comfortable and flexible while still keeping in fashion.

Modern dress styles:

off the shoulder dresses, v neck dresses, long sleeves dresses, mermaid evening dresses.

Ask these Questions about any Prom Dress You’re Considering:

*When you bend over to pick something up, sit or twist and turn while dancing, does the dress give in areas where needed?

*When you sit to dine and need to move your arms freely, will the prom dress be comfortable?

*Does the material breathe so you won’t get too hot during the prom or dinner?

If shopping for your prom clothing online, ask questions about the material and if it gives and breathes for ultimate comfort. Order your prom dress far enough in advance so you’ll have time to try it on and return it if you absolutely don’t like it.

Price needs to be reasonable.

Prom dresses with high price normally have high cost. However, learn to compare the price among different stores. From these aspects: fabric, style, details, embroidery or handmade beads. If a dress has sophisticated details with very low price, you need not to buy it easily. See the comments below before your decision. If it is on sale, then you catch the deal.

Above all, choosing a right and great prom dress needs time, energy and patience. Know your own size measurements and your favorite style when you select. Good luck.
