Upcoming Wedding Expos & Events – Spring into Wedding season!

Weddings around Christmas time are becoming more popular, with good reason. It’s the most wonderful time of the year for many people, so here’s some Christmas wedding inspiration.

Who says you can’t get married near Christmas? It’s perfect since family and friends are likely to be close by. Much can be done for a wedding during the jolly season. Classic, modern, rustic, or whimsical, here’s some Christmas wedding inspiration.

Christmas Wedding Inspiration

The possibilities are endless for a festive wedding. It may be summer here in the southern hemisphere, but that doesn’t mean you can’t embrace the snowy Christmas ideas that are enjoyed on the other side of the world. After all, there’s nothing like a Christmassy winter wonderland in the middle of that heat!

Christmas Flowers

Bouquets and floral arrangements of red and white blooms will set the tone at the ceremony and reception. Adding some greenery or red/green tartan will tie everything together.

Bridesmaids Dresses in Red

Red isn’t often used for bridesmaids’ dresses, but this is the one time you should do it! Their red dresses and your white gown are going to look amazing in photos.

Pine-cone Centerpiece

Forget the flowers for table centerpieces. Go with pine-cones instead. Spraying them with silver or gold will add a rustic-glam look.

Place Settings with a Festive Twist

You can have fun with place settings. Try a few berries, sprig of greenery and a cinnamon stick for each place card. Or a Christmas cookie, each with a guest’s name iced on it. That’s something they eat or take with them!

Christmas Tree Napkins

No, not printed napkins, but napkins folded into a Christmas tree shape! Cute and so apropos for a wedding at this time of year.

Festive Cocktails

Have a couple of festive signature cocktails that incorporate Christmas flavors and colors like cranberry, pomegranate, eggnog or peppermint.

A Semi-Naked Cake

You may have noticed semi-naked wedding cakes are super trendy right now. A chocolate/rum cake roughly smeared in icing – white of course – gives the effect of snow on the cake. Decorate it with holly, a little greenery, and that’s Christmas in a cake.
