Color Ideas for a Winter Wedding
The colors you choose for your wedding determine the mood of your special day. Winter color schemes evoke the magic and splendor of one of the most elegant seasons. However, don't limit yourself to traditional winter wedding colors, like white, silver and ice blue -- vivid jewel tones and deep blues make striking winter wedding colors, too.

Pale Gold with White or Black

Jewel Tones

Vivid jewel tones add drama and visual interest and look especially striking against the pale winter palette. Consider burgundy, chocolate brown or emerald green, and play up the contrasts between the vivid colors and lighter neutrals, such as white, ivory or silver. Jewel tones look stunning against traditional Christmas decorations, such as Christmas trees, wreaths and poinsettias.
Vivid Blues and Silver or White

Match a vivid blue with white or silver for a chic, up-to-date take on the classic white/silver/ice blue color scheme. Royal or navy blue paired with white or silver will also create a crisp, clean feel for a smart modern wedding.
