A Wintery Snowflake Motif Wedding
What motif better symbolizes the frosty beauty of winter than the snowflake? Unique, intricate, and beautiful, each snowflake is a perfect example of the icy wonder of the cold weather months. For the bride and groom getting married in the winter, it also makes an outstanding wedding motif. Read below for a few great ideas for incorporating the snowflake motif into your winter wedding.
Greet your wedding guests with your snowflake motif upon their arrival. Light up the shady winter day with tin white lights in the shape of large snowflakes. The decorating options with snowflakes are endless and include hanging them on Church doors, suspend them from porches, and even attach them to lamp posts to line a driveway or street. They will make a warming and cozy impression on your wedding geusts. Continue the snowflake welcome with hundreds of tiny snowflakes hung inside the entrance to your ceremony. These snowflakes can be designed with pearls, crystals, or even paper. Clear or silver thin strings can be used to suspend the beautiful snowflakes.
The wedding attire is a great place to incorporate the chosen motif. Crystal snowflake hairpins would be ideal for the bride’s hair jewelry. A bride can even have a seamstress embroider snowflakes onto her wedding dress if she is that in love with the sowflake motif. For the bridesmaids, Swarovski crystal snowflake pendants are a must; choose the petite version as girls jewelry for junior attendants. All white bouquets would look gorgeous with a wide ice blue satin ribbon tied around the stems – with a silver snowflake embroidered on the tails of the ribbon, of course.
Although the girls jewelry and attire are great ways to incporporate the snowflake motif, there are many more ways to do so. A table centerpiece can include a candle that is held in place by a votive holder that is designed with a snowlake appearance. Sprinkle snowflake confetti along the diner tables. Because the motif is generally done in silver or white, it is hard to overdo it with the snowflakes. A grand snowflake ice sculpture would be a really “cool” touch for the cocktail hour.
Now comes the wedding sweets. One magnificent design for a wedding cake is to have snowflakes designed with icing in a number of different sizes floating around the tiers of the wedding cake. Use either white snowflakes over ice blue frosting or silver snowflakes over white icing to help the decorations stand out from the cake. Top the cake with a crystal snowflake ornament, similar in style to the girls jewelry from Swarovski. It will be a very special addition to your Christmas tree throughout your married life. The cake isn’t the only place where you can incorporae the snowflake idea. Cookies baked into the shape of a snowflake and decorated to look just like a snowflake would be perfect wedding favors. You can have these presented at each table inside clear baggettes.
For any winter wedding, the snowflake motif is a perfect choice for decorations. Snowflakes are very easy to use, very hard to over use, and represents the cold wintry months very accurately. With all these tips in mind, have fun and enjoy the snowflake wedding motif for your decorations.
