Seasonal Scheming

The colour combos and shade schemes we’re loving for a winter wonderland wedding.

Winter Wonderland

Channel your inner Elsa from Frozen and deck out your wedding day in a colour scheme that is fit for an ice queen. Light blue with ivory or white will ensure your day’s ambiance is nothing short of a winter wonderland. Frosted overcasts of snow-spray or silver detailing will only add to the overall atmosphere.

Deep and Dark

A winter wedding allows you to get away with deeper and richer tones in your colour palette. Deep burgundy or navy will go down well combined with ivory or gold, while plums and purples team well with grey.

Nature's Colour Palette

Draw inspiration from this season’s natural shading and base your day around earth tones. Shades of green, brown and white or cream combined will be representative of the earth’s tones and ensure your wedding carries a contemporary Christmas ambiance. Think snow dusted foliage and timber tones to ensure you’re capturing a natural beauty in your colour choices.

Golden Additions

‘Tis the season for incorporating some dazzling golden elements into your colour schemes. Whether you want it as a block colour of your day or simply as detailing throughout your décor, there is never a season in which it is more appropriate than now.

A Tinge of Tartan

Ensure the Christmas vibes are well received by incorporating some tartan elements into your big day’s décor and attire. Green and red or red and navy tartan are festive stables, but you could also opt for more earthly tones to keep things subdued and subtle.

Silver Simplicity

A touch of silver is never a bad idea at a winter wedding, but it is also possible to base your entire colour scheme around this. Greys and silvers with white or ivory is the perfect cool toned combo for a festive celebration.

Dressing the Bridesmaids SAME OR DIFFERENT

May 17, 2024
Traditionally, bridesmaids have worn the same dress to create a cohesive and uniform look. This practice dates back to ancient times when bridesmaids were tasked with protecting the bride from evil spirits or potential suitors. By dressing identically, it was believed that the bridesmaids could confuse any ill-intentioned individuals and ensure the bride’s safety. Over time, this tradition evolved into a way to symbolise the unity and support of the bridal party. By wearing the same dress, bridesmaids visually demonstrate their commitment to the bride and her special day. It also helps to create a sense of harmony and balance in the overall wedding aesthetic. However, in recent years, there has been a shift towards more individuality and personal expression in weddings. Many brides are now opting for a more modern approach, allowing their bridesmaids to wear different dresses that suit their individual styles and body types. This change reflects a desire to celebrate the unique personalities and preferences of each bridesmaid, while still maintaining a cohesive look.
