When we think about wintertime, the thoughts coming to our mind are those of snowflakes, pine cones and hanging icicles. Use the winter season and make your theme of a wonderful "white" wedding.

Here are 5 ideas to make your winter wedding unique:

Wedding Colors

Choose your favorite color you want to use for your wedding theme.

You can have the traditional colors, such as red and green for the winter season. You can also consider silver and white with crystal accents.

Your color choice will set the theme of the invitation cards, dresses, flowers and decorations.

Invitations

Winter weddings are usually held indoors and they call for more formal invitations. There are many traditional wedding invitation cards with winter designs available.

A fresh idea for a formal winter wedding invitation is to write your invitation on frosted Plexiglas with white or black scripted ink and send them out in silver envelopes.

Cocktails and Drinks Take advantage of the winter season. Offer your guest outstanding cocktails and a mouthwatering menu that will keep in your guest's mind for years to come.

Offer your guests a winter cocktail after the official ceremony, such as a Pomegranate Champagne Cocktail. It is a unique twist to the traditional wedding toast of regular bubbles.

You can also choose a more exclusive drink, which keeps you warm in cold days. A comforting drink can be a hot chocolate and warm apple cider.

Surprise your guests with something new. Have a look on the internet which cocktails will fit to your winter theme.

Wedding menu

You can't go wrong, when you offer a warm soup for your guests as a starter. Even a tasty noodle soup with pasta in heart shapes, with small pieces of meat and fresh vegetables would be a great idea.

As a main meal traditionally you could have a tender beef roast, surrounded with potatoes and a lot of different vegetables (red cabbage). In modern times you also have the option to offer a delicious fish or tasty chicken instead of beef.

You should have some vegetarian meals on offer as an option for those guests, they do not eat meat.

Surprise your guests and finish your meal with a sorbet in a shape of a snow man, surrounded with hot berries.

Decoration

If you are planning a winter themed wedding, most important part is the decoration. Of course, there are not many opportunities for having the wedding outdoor.

To get an indoor place such as a big ball room at a club or school would be ideal. When you are searching for a wedding location in your area, please consider that the place is the main element for guests to enjoy themselves.

Are you looking for the latest decoration trends? Ask your friends to build up two real snowmen at the entrance outside, if it is cold enough outside.

When using personalized name cards and serviettes with winter designs to match the winter themed colors are also great assets to the table decoration.

If you do not like the idea of fresh flowers for your table decorations, then try this:

Use white or silver helium balloons with winter themed ribbons and tie them up to little decorative sandbags and leave them on the tables. Those balloons look great and this idea is not a very expensive either.

Weddings are always such special days that you want to create and organize something, which makes your wedding unique. Hopefully these tips will inspire you to have the best event of your life.
