3 Reasons Why We Love Winter Weddings
When most people think of weddings, winter isn't always the first season that typically comes to mind. However, it's been our experience here at Belle Hills in Crittenden, Kentucky, that winter weddings hold a special charm that other seasons can't replicate. The magic of the season, festive attire, and comforting food and drink have us head over velvet heels for these winter wedding ideas!
The Enchantment of the Winter Season
Within wintertime's crisp stillness lies an invitation to savor the warmth of family and enjoy the season's festivities. The spirit of giving and goodwill wraps everyone in a hug of togetherness, making it a beautiful time to celebrate love. That’s why some couples choose winter as their season to say 'I do.'
Plus, winter wedding decorations capture the unique magic of the season in a spellbinding way. Imagine tables adorned with lush greenery and velvet drapes framing the room as twinkling lights reflect off frost-kissed pine wreaths. It's the perfect season for warming jewel-toned hues—emerald green, ruby red, sapphire blue, and gold. These winter wedding colors and decor create a beautiful atmosphere to celebrate your love.
The Timeless Elegance of Winter Wedding Attire
We adore the luxurious layers of fabric and cozy accessories that go hand in hand with winter wedding ensembles. It simply brings an unmatched level of elegance and sophistication to your big day! Couples who embrace winter’s charm can look stunningly with these thoughtful details:

Delicious Winter Dishes and Festive Sips
There is no season quite like winter to share in decadent meals with loved ones! Since winter fare and libations are all about warming comfort, your guests will absolutely adore their reception dinner. Think of a butternut soup starter topped with toasted pumpkin seeds followed by a hearty roasted beef tenderloin paired with rosemary roasted potatoes. Signature warming cocktails add to the feast. For example, mulled wine and hot toddies offer a taste of cheer in every sip. And let's remember those cozy drinks for the little ones in your life! Mulled cranberry punch and extra creamy hot chocolate topped with marshmallows will undoubtedly be hits.
