Winter Wedding Ideas
Winter in Minnesota is magical. From beautiful snowy landscapes, icy lakes and sparkling lights, the beauty of the winter season is truly a breathtaking time to host a wedding. Infuse the magic of a Minnesota winter into your wedding with these five fantastic trends this season.
1.) Luxurious Fabrics
A wedding in the winter opens up a plethora of new fabric possibilities. From velvets to faux furs, you can make your wedding truly luxurious. Winter is the perfect time to use rich colors in your décor and wedding attire. Whether it’s velvet bridesmaid dresses, sequined runners or sumptuous silk table fare, you truly can’t go wrong.
2.) Venues with Historic Charm
Since the weather outside is, indeed, bound to be frightful, it is important to book an indoor venue. Instead of booking a faceless reception hall, search for a venue full of charm. If you are searching for a gorgeous historic event space in St. Paul, 413 on Wacouta is one of the best wedding reception venues Minnesota has to offer. The gorgeous exposed beams and brick walls, along with stunning renovations, 413 seamlessly blends classic charm with modern updates. Nearby Mears Park, along with our unique rooftop reserved exclusively for couples make for breathtaking winter photo options as well.
3.) Winter Wonderland Decor
Twinkly lights, gorgeous crystals, stunning jewel-toned flowers – these are just a few of the unforgettable decor details you can incorporate into your winter wedding. You will wow your guests when you fully embrace the charms of this chilly season. From ice sculptures to holiday-inspired accents, there are a million different ways to make your decor unforgettable.
4.) Cozy Touches
People will enjoy a break from the harsh frozen tundra–make your wedding an oasis from the cold. Candlelight décor, holiday greenery, and guest gifts like cozy earmuffs or mittens will make your reception even more enjoyable for your loved ones.
5.) Warming Menu Items
Keep the warmth going with your menu. Hot cocoa stations, warming appetizers, and filling entrees will take the sting out of the winter frost. Excite your guests with refreshment options that warm the belly and delight their taste buds. We all know that food is one of the best parts of any event, so do not skimp on this key detail.
