Christmas Wedding Ideas

There are so many exciting Christmas wedding ideas to choose from as you plan your holiday wedding that it will be difficult to incorporate them all into the celebration! Choosing a color scheme for your Christmas wedding shouldn't be a problem because most churches and rental facilities are already decorated for Christmas in December. Red and green would make great wedding colors that match the décor, but other appropriate color alternatives are silver and white or even white and pale blue.

Wedding Set-up And Decorations

Wedding attire for a Christmas wedding can be very traditional, and the bride can wear just about any dress that she'd choose any other time of year. The men will look dashing in dark tuxedos, and you may want to forego flowers for the bridesmaids and let them put their hands inside fluffy white fur muffs instead!

Christmas trees and wreaths are an obvious choice for reception decorations, and large red bows on the backs of chairs will add beauty to the room as well as add to the overall Christmas theme. Red and white striped candles that have the appearance of candy canes will make spectacular centerpieces on the reception tables, and strewing handfuls of Hershey's kisses wrapped in red, green, and silver will add a sparkle to the tables as well.

Christmas Wedding Invitations

Don't forget the invitations when you're thinking of Christmas wedding ideas. Let the guests realize that your wedding will have a Christmas motif, but be sure that your wedding invitations do not look like Christmas cards. For that reason, you should choose a flat invitation versus one which folds in half. A cream-colored invitation with raised dark red lettering and a piece of artificial green holly would be absolutely beautiful. Mail your invitations three to four months before the actual wedding: people who may be planning to travel for the holidays might change their plans once they learn of your wedding.

Wedding Cake And Favors

A wedding cake with several layers that each appears to be a wrapped Christmas gift is a great wedding cake idea. One more thing to consider as you're thinking of Christmas wedding ideas is the favors that you want to give your guests. Personalized Christmas ornaments that contain the bride and groom's name and wedding date are a great idea because they'll let people remember you every single year when they decorate their Christmas tree!
