Winter Wedding Ideas

First off - what kind of budget are you working with?

I know it sounds corny but I always thought it would be cool to have Santa sitting by a christmas tree as guests came in .... they would get their picture taken with Santa ....they would get a copy for a keepsake and sign another one to be put in the guestbook. That way you have a photo album of everyone at your wedding not just a bunch of names.

How about posting on a wedding website...that is an idea.

The wedding will be at a Lodge in Leavenworth. So We'll be surrounded by woods and Snow. The Ceremony and Reception will be Inside.

Thanks in advance!!!!

Well since I never had one (we got married at the JoP and have been happily married for 23 years).....this would be my dream wedding if it was in Winter: Winter Wonderland

Favors: see some of the links with snowflakes (some were wine corks and other things...really cool)

Flowers: Hydrangea (White or Blue), Lily of the Nile (Blue), Orchids (White or Blue)

Cakes/Cupcakes (cupcakes are all the rage right now; you can do a wedding cake that has cake tiers and cup cake tiers; I saw on a wedding show where the groom does the whole wedding....cupcakes called Blue Velvet..everyone loved them - I think they were blueberry flavored...they looked really yummy)

Reception Food

Drinks: ice blue raspberry vodka lemonade (or have a mixologist create three especially for your wedding after getting you and your intended's likes/dislikes and then pick one for the wedding)

Seating Cards: see some of the links with snowflakes and rhinestones

Ceremony Programs

Decorations: Crystals, mini white/blue lights, snowflakes (see some of the links)

Songs: Trans-siberian Orchistra?

Colors --- Blue Ice & Silver

Hair Styles: up-sweep (of course it really depends on the length and style of your hair now and your bridesmaids hair)

I don't dig on the colors of this one...but the fake fur or fur stole or shrug the bride and bridesmaids are wearing are really cool and would look beautiful with ice blue.
