Anyone have any ideas?

With Snowflakes?

Snow?

Winterwonderland?

I'm looking for the same thing! Hopefully we'll get some ideas!

Here's a cake with snowflakes on it I saw recently ...

Instead of throwing rice, or rose petals, throw snowflakes.

For favors, give mini snowglobes.

Hi T!

Janatlantica had a wintery theme! everything was lit in white christmas lights, I forget what her centerpieces were. Her cake had snowflakes on it and her favors were glass ornaments in assorted snowflakes. Let me see if I can find her pics and post somethings for ya!

I think maybe we will throw snowwww.


That is a greattttttt idea!!!!!!!!!

Lauren HI Wife!!! Congrats hunnie!!!!!!!!!

Please tell me more about the lights!
I like lights!!!!

Do you know what kind of centerpieces you are doing yet.

I remember someone posting about these branch centerpieces, maybe you can put them with lights on the branches and snow at the bottom of them.

Hmm, when I think Winter Wonderland I think...

- Ice sculptures
- Hand muffs (you know, those fur tube things that you stick your hands in..I can't think of the name..maybe for bridesmaides?)
- Icicles (maybe incorporated into your centerpieces?)
- Snow cone machine (I remember you saying you were having an after hours type thing. You could prob rent one)
- lots of white candles. (in the shape of snowballs like below)



I will keep thinking...

Thanks T!

Anyway here are a few pics from Laura's wedding (Janatlantica) These were posted on NW board, here's two that show her lights and I still can't seem to remember her centerpieces. I will have to check my pics when I get home

* Laura hope you don't mind me reshowing your pics

Keepppppp them comming!!!!

I found this article:

Winter can be a fabulous season for a wedding. If you prefer snow skiing to water sports, think about using a winter wedding theme.

Colors
There are many colors available for winter themes. Choose one of the following or a combination of colors: Silver, white, light blue, light green, lavender, plum, cranberry, ivy, gold, ruby, emerald, pewter, cobalt, navy, hunter green, or black.

Flowers
White poinsettias would be beautiful for a winter wedding along with other white flowers such as roses, calla lilies, carnations, gardenias, magnolias, alstromeria and snowball mums. Instead of the traditional fillers, consider having your florist incorporate evergreen sprigs into your floral arrangements. For a different look, have your bridesmaids carry evergreen wreathes or hurricane lamps instead of flower bouquets.

Decorations
The bride doing a winter theme is lucky for she can hit the after Christmas sales and save on almost all of her decorations. Icicle lights in either white or blue would be a great way to start off decorating your reception. Gold or silver garland would be another great touch. Snowflake ornaments would add a definite winter feel to your decorating scheme and could double as favors. Evergreen boughs could add a touch of green to your decorating scheme. For example, swags of greenery with white lights would add a charming feel to the reception. White and blue tulle will also help create a winter feel.

Centerpieces
There are many unique ideas available for a winter wedding theme. For example, you could have bride and groom snowmen, miniature ice sculptures, large snowglobes, or white poinsettias with snowflakes on them. While candles are used by many brides with many different themes, they can add a special warm glow to a winter wedding. Add fake snow around any centerpiece for an additional winter touch.

Music
To help set the mood of a winter day or evening, chose some songs with the word snow or winter in them. Some examples are: Snowbird, Walking in a Winter Wonderland, or The First Snowfall. Try doing a search on the word 'snow' or 'winter' at any music site for additional ideas.

Food
Hot chocolate, mulled wine, mulled cider and wassail are all good drinks to help set the mood of a winter reception theme. Cheese fondue would make a warm and fun appetizer to start off your winter wedding feast. Follow with a soup course instead of a salad if you are having a sit-down dinner or provide soup on the buffet. Warm bread is especially satisfying on a cold winter day. Ham, turkey, fish, or beef all would be suitable meats for your meal.

Cake
There are many beautiful wedding cake designs incorporating snowflakes available. For your cake topper, consider using a snowglobe or looking for snowmen. For an additional snow effect, cover the cake table with a pile of white fabric, fake snow, or white tulle.

Favors
If you choose to have favors at your reception, here are a few that go well with a winter theme: Miniature glass snowstorm globes with a winter scene and the bride and groom's names and wedding date added, an icicle or snowflake ornament, chocolate mint suckers in snowflake or snowmen shapes, or snowflake or snowmen shaped cookies. If you are using a lot of greenery for your decorations, miniature evergreen trees would be a good favor.

Here are more ideas from various websites...

- Use white candles in clear votives and sprinkle white table linens with white and silver confetti shaped like snowflakes, or stars.

- Candlight always warms the room in winter. Float candles in clear bowls for centerpieces; place old fashioned hurricane lamps with candles on gift, buffet, and guestbook tables.

- A pearl-tipped pin that transforms a simple paper disk into a whimsical place card may then be used by guests to turn the gift of a perfect gardenia into a corsage or boutonniere.



- Before you bid your final adieu, sip a fortifying shot of Schnapps, the classic German fruit-flavored brandy. White candy canes make clever swizzle sticks. Serve your sips perfectly chilled—a sterling bowl filled with new-fallen snow is the ideal cooler.



T- there is so much info online. Do search on Google....

For seating cards you can get the tent cards,
and attach a snowflake ornament to the card

Here is another idea for when you leave the church T..

- As you leave, guests reach for miniature galvanized pails filled with downy feathers, then shower you with a soft send-off as you step into the winter night.

KImmmmmmmmm

send me the links..

:)


I loveeeee the feather idea..........


Where did you get that!
