Planning your wedding during the winter can prove tricky as it can become quite unpredictable. Even though during this period there is always the possibility of ample weather fluctuations, from milder periods to powerful blizzards, winter can still be an excellent time to host a wonderful wedding.Perfect planning, with attention to any detail will leave your guest with a delightful experience and you will have some wonderful memories of this special moment in your life. Here are some winter wedding tips that will help you plan this important celebration of love.
1. Pick a special setting or theme
You don’t have to go and pick the most obvious route: the icy theme. Instead, you can go for a winter wonderland theme, or a Narnia scene or even a Christmas scenario if the wedding is hosted during December. Make sure that you design the invitations, settings and wardrobe accordingly, making your guests be part of the show. Pine cones, snowflakes, snowy mountain peaks and snowmen, they all work for the perfect decoration.
2. Keep everyone warm
After all, it is winter and not everyone particularly enjoys the cold weather. Keep in mind that tea, hot chocolate, milk cocoa and coffee will be in high demand. Pick a heated indoor venue for the party so all your guests are comfortable. Excellent ideas might be a mountain hotel or a ski resort inn.
3. Choosing the best bridal winter make-up
Looking your best for the most important moment in your life also needs a special type of make-up, especially for those cold winter days. Make-up can be another tricky part to master; after all, you don’t want to end up looking like Rudolph, with a red nose, or like Frosty the snowman.
Use a lighter foundation to make the skin look lighter, and take the dullness and dryness out of the atmosphere. Add some white powder if needed as well, this will help keep your skin hydrated.
The eyes are the windows to your soul and they will certainly be the center of attention during this special day.
Use a good concealer and foundation as a base, as well as a liner for the contours. Try a white liner for the water line to get that icy look, perfectly suited for the season.

Don’t overlook your eyelashes. With some beautiful lash extensions you can really grab the attention of the crowd. Long eyelashes can make you elegant, sexy and confident.
The eyelids are also an important part of your look and will best go in a lighter tone, possibly a tint of pink or beige, but also a darker shade toward the creases. You could also add a touch of silver or even bronze near the nose for higher contrast.
4. Picking the right wedding dress
Look for a wedding dress(bridal dresses & groom dresses) with long sleeves to keep you warm during the cold weather. Also, choose a dress that is made out of a heavier type of fabric, such as satin or silk.
This will keep you warm in case you will be spending time outside. When picking the dress you can also go for season icy color such as satin blue, sapphire blue, light pink or silver.
