There’s a saying that where there’s winter there is magic. It can’t get any truer than this, especially when there’s a beautiful winter wedding taking place!

Picking the right outfit, designing the wedding cards, cake-tasting, and of course, picking the perfect venue—these are some of the most time-consuming decisions, and yet, some of the most important decisions you have to make.

But it can be even more difficult when planning the perfect winter wedding. Deciding the venue, the type of dress you’ll be wearing, and of course, decorations and the food have to be according to the weather!

Fortunately, by taking a few measures, properly planning your wedding day can become easier. Here are a few things you should take into consideration:

Embrace the Season

Just because it’s winter and the weather can get a bit frosty, doesn’t mean you can’t dress the way you want to! Embrace the gorgeous weather and keep track of the temperatures before your wedding.

Most brides have a perception that they can’t dress the way they want to, and will have to compromise. That’s not true. You can still wear a sleeveless dress. Most venues are warm inside. Just make sure that you have a coat or jacket for when you have to go outside, and socks so you don’t get cold.

Bring Beauty Essentials

Chap-stick, lip gloss, moisturizer—these are the essentials! Make sure you keep them in your bag to avoid mishaps, such as cracked lips and skin. They are life-savers and can also be used for other things. For example, dabbing and rubbing a little bit of moisturizer on your hair can help make it less frizzy, and you will also need it to save your foundation from going to wrinkly and cakey.

Use One Venue

It’s important to stick to one venue so that you don’t get snowed in! While it may sound boring to some, this is important because you won’t have difficulty travelling places in case of bad weather. Keep the wedding and reception in one venue to avoid delays.

Hire a Professional Photographer

Don’t hand the camera to just about anyone! Remember that it’s your big day, your big moment to shine. Plenty of couples regret their decisions when they look back at their wedding album because they chose to give the camera to a friend.

A professional knows all there is to know about capturing the perfect shot, the perfect moment, and using the lighting source properly. The result will be beautiful, breathtaking formal and candid shots of you and the love of your life.
