1. Getting Married in Winter is Trendy!
Winter offers a magical and unique setting. Getting married in winter has been a real trend for a few years now, very romantic. In the colder months, we carry transparent umbrellas for fun outdoor photos. We open wine and hot cider stalls. We eat pretzels and sip hot cocoa. As if we were in the mountains! A bride can also opt for good winter boots.
2. Way More Venue/vendor Availability
Due to less number of weddings in winter there is a better chance of getting your favorite wedding venue, photographer, florist, make-up artist, stylist, celebrant etc. on your desired date.
Check out Online for Amazing Wedding Deals
Did you know that you can get some amazing deals on wedding matters elsewhere like Facebook, OfferUp, and other marketplace apps? There are many buying/selling groups on Facebook where brides sell their decorations, dresses, signs, etc., and try to make some money from their own wedding.
Instead of paying the full price for anything at a bridal store you can usually find great deals here. You need to be patient and keep checking to see what is available, but it can be very rewarding once you find your perfect shape.
4. A Mix of Indoor and Outdoor Events Can Be Organized
Winter weddings give you the freedom to choose different locations for your events. Unlike Summer Sun, Winter Sun is welcoming and enjoyable for everyone or anyone, thus calling for a few different venues for different events. It depicts the diversity in people’s experience and images.
No humidity: Summers in India are known for certain humidity and sweat. Planning a winter wedding solves this problem and therefore guests will be very thankful for doing so.
5. Comfort Menu & Creative Enhancements
Winter is the perfect time to serve our couples favorite comfort foods. From starting hour to reception, serve food that will warm everyone’s stomach.
Couples will love our winter add-ons like our hot drinks and indoor s’mores station. Both make great choices to spice up your evening!
6. It’s Not Going To Be 40 Degrees
I really think it’s overlooked, an Aussie summer day can be 15 degrees or 40 degrees and it’s not ideal when you plan to be warm, but if it’s freezing you don’t dress appropriately, or if you’re too warm your brows are miserable and the eyeliner won’t stay on because you’re crying no. It could be flooding or the place could be on fire, and it’s only going to get worse as we deal with climate change.
I could write a whole post on this one point, every reason to choose a cooler time of year under the hot sun, but the main one is: which is very different from the summer variations. If you already know it’s going to be cold, you can plan accordingly.
7. Your Portrait Positions Won’t Be Crowded With People
If you are going somewhere public for photos, this is for you, we all spend a lot of time on weekend shooting and we love winter because when you go to the best locations we see another new world. Expressing your love for each other is much easier when you don’t have 50 strangers around you.
Winter makes everything look different and fresh. Your pictures also look very beautiful and natural.
Check out discounts for “off-day” with your favorite venues
A week day wedding or Sunday wedding can also save you money with your sellers for the same reason. If you celebrate your wedding on different days, many vendors will give you a discount because you do not take their favorite Saturday wedding slots.
8. More Potential for a Special Rate
Slow season (for now), plenty of venues and some vendors offer winter wedding prices. The savings can be significant when you’re talking about hosting a large group of people, and think of what you could do with the extra cash — go on a long honeymoon, hire a videographer and more.
9. Marriage Fatigue Is Not a Thing
If you are getting married, some of your friends are also planning weddings. Some of the couples we’ve worked with have multiple people attending their weddings around the same time and it can be quite a thing to manage! If you choose a winter celebration, not only will you be doing it in your circle, but you can create a completely different vibe for everyone you know.
10. Another Reason to Enjoy Those Long Rituals
Since winter is the season of love, your mandapam has only soothing vibes around it. People are in a better mood because they don’t sweat profusely, so they enjoy rituals more than you might think. Rituals can be planned and executed with a relaxed state of mind, which is convenient for conducting large-scale functions.
11. A Reduced Budget during the Winter Months
Winter management in high season (May to September) costs more than in winter. Winter weddings save money on lower prices. Renting a charming castle, catering at low prices… Getting married in winter allows you to recoup your budget for other small pleasures. Getting married in winter is an opportunity to fulfill all your wishes and enjoy a magical wedding.
12. Your Wedding Will Be a Special Snowflake
Considered the “off season” for winter weddings, this benefits you in the following ways:
Off-season weddings are generally less expensive. If you’re on a budget.
You have a wide selection of dates available. Since winter isn’t exactly wedding prime time, your venue and others should have more availability in their calendars. That means you have a better chance of securing your dream date with your favorite venue + team of members.
Your guests will be slammed with wedding invitations. Or travel plans! That means more people will be interested in attending your event. Remember that winter has many holidays, so plan your date accordingly.
13. Give a Different Look to Winter Wedding Decoration
Winter is the season of fresh and varied flowers. Their easy availability makes it easy for wedding planners and vendors to have cost-effective and mind-blowing decorations. Winters also maintain the freshness and charm of all decorations.
Wedding fatigue is manageable: Summer and monsoon weddings take a tremendous toll on people in terms of exhaustion and fatigue. Winter takes away that tiredness and makes all events more enjoyable and fun.
When planning floral arrangements for a wedding, consider winter flowers for the overall decor.
Dried flowers add an aesthetic touch to name cards that you can place on tables. Also, you can try these flowers to give wedding wishes to your guests.
Even in the colder months, table decorations are a must: wooden logs in the middle of the tables, fir or holly branches, pine cones, lanterns… To add a 100% magical atmosphere, accessorize the ceiling of your wedding reception room. Beautiful garlands in warm colors mixed with luxuriant grapes.
13.1. Use Twinkle Lights and Candles to Decorate Your Venue
Adding candles or twinkle lights to the wedding venue decoration is the perfect way to make your guests feel cozy. String them into an elegant canopy at a reception, hang them from the ceiling or incorporate them into a table scape. There are many details that can create an intimate atmosphere, from choosing the right venue to seating everyone around a long table.
