Planning a winter wedding? Naturally, it all starts with the right bridal gown! Get inspired by these gorgeous ideas for winter wedding gowns that are ideal for any cold weather wedding.
Before visiting bridal salons, keep in mind the things which are unique to wintertime wedding gowns. You will definitely want to find a dress in a wintery material. That wispy chiffon dress that is so lovely for a summer wedding will be completely out of season by the time November rolls around. This would also be the case for a sheer organdy frock. While some popular wedding fabrics may not be appropriate for your winter wedding, that does not mean that your choices will be limited. In the winter, you can indulge in some incredibly luxe fabrics.
One of the most popular materials for winter bridal gowns is satin. The elegance of satin is unsurpassed. The nice heavy drape of the fabric is great for chilly weather weddings. It is the perfect style for an elegant affair in a luxury hotel or a mansion. The sheen of satin works wonderfully with silvery and sparkling embellishments. Satin looks marvelous for full gowns with heavy crystal beadwork. Shop for crystal bridal jewelry that plays up the sparkle on the gown. A snow white mink shawl over an opulent bridal gown creates a very luxe effect. A classic crimson bouquet with crystal accents will be the perfect finishing touch.
Embrace the holiday season by choosing a dress or accessory in luxe velvet! Surely nothing is better than the richness of velvet. Treat yourself to something fabulous like a white velvet cape. Imagine how stunning it would be for pictures taken in a sleigh with your new husband. An all velvet wedding dress is a great option for a winter bride. The drape of velvet is well suited to strong necklines, such as v-necks or square necklines. Large chandelier earrings are a fantastic complement to the richness of the fabric.
Downy feathers or artfully torn tulle skirts are a fantastic look for a winter wedding dress. Picture a bridal gown with a satin or taffeta bodice and a full, fluffy skirt made from layers of feathers or shredded tulle. What a striking gown this would make for the bride with a chic, modern flair. What a fun twist on the traditional winter wonderland theme. If a feathered dress is too much for you, a fluffy white feather bouquet would be a nice accent.
Sometimes the right answer for a winter wedding dress is all out glitz. Imagine the best ever New Year’s Eve dress, only better. A slim gown dusted all over with tiny sparkling Swarovski crystals is a breathtaking style for a formal winter wedding. You can trim it out with a sash at the waist. Strap on your dancing shoes and a dramatic set of crystal bridal jewelry to complete the look. Your groom’s jaw will drop to the ground when you appear at the end of the aisle in your spectacular wedding gown!
