Wedding invitation

Summer may be the most popular time of year to get married, but winter offers you and your guests something truly special and magical. The coolness of the air, the cosiness of cuddling up to loved ones, and the magic of snow make winter a surprisingly idealistic season for weddings.

But before you think about venues and outfits, you’ve got to think about stationery. Winter wedding invitations can set the mood for a memorable ceremony in the chillier months and provide a wonderful keepsake that will warm the hearts of your loved ones.

Winter: The Most Underrated Wedding Season

Wintertime is a great opportunity to snuggle up with those you love and celebrate the value of community, family, and warmth. And even though summer is widely considered the most popular wedding season, winter has a lot more to offer than you might think.

The delicate beauty of snow or grey clouds, the warmth of a raging bonfire, cosy knits, and comfort food are just some of the wonderful things that winter has to offer. Besides, white weddings, white Christmas…they all go hand in hand!

5 Reasons Why You Should Consider A Winter Wedding

In addition to winter being an extremely beautiful time of year, there are many practical benefits to hosting your wedding during this special season. It’s often quieter, offering more flexibility around venue options and even fashion choices.

If you’re still not sure if winter is the right wedding season for you, take a look at these five reasons why it’s worth considering.

1. Better lighting for photos

In summer, sunlight becomes very direct and harsh, often making for shadowed or inconsistent photographs. But winter, on the other hand, scatters that light evenly through dense clouds, creating a clearer, more consistent dispersal of light.

Winter light means brighter, more predictable images. If capturing high quality photos is a priority for your wedding, a winter celebration could be the perfect choice for you.

2. Lower venue costs, higher availability

Not many people choose winter as the season for their wedding, and as a result, many of the best venue options are open for bookings. Often, they are even running discounts to encourage business. This makes it much easier to pick a date that suits you, and you can save money along the way.

3. You can be more creative about fashion

Summer weddings are lovely, but they can be a bit restrictive when it comes to wardrobe options. You can’t wear anything too heavy or complex, because it will weigh you down or make you uncomfortably warm.

This is not a problem with winter weddings. When it’s cold, you can comfortably wear stylish sleeves, multi-layered petticoats, or even something as unconventional as a cape while remaining comfortable.

4. Makes your wedding stand out

Summertime is filled with weddings, parties, and celebrations of all kinds. By hosting your wedding in winter, you not only give guests something more exciting to look forward to, but your wedding stands out amongst the crowd.

With a winter wedding, you’re far more likely to see a full (and enthusiastic) circle of guests.

5. Predictable weather patterns

With a summer or spring wedding, there is always the worry that your wedding day will see a random bout of rain or wind. But in winter, you’re already prepared for those things.

Seeing as it will be cold anyways, you’ll organise a ceremony and reception that is fully protected from the elements. No unwanted surprises here!
