HOW TO HAVE A HOLIDAY WEDDING?
Wondering how you can plan a holiday wedding that isn’t cheesy? While Hallmark movies are fun to watch, you may want only a touch of plaid or puffy jackets to make their way into your elevated holiday wedding. Here are 3 ways in which this styled shoot showed us that simple winter wedding decor can easily hint at a holiday wedding theme.
Wedding Dress With Sweater
We often style wedding dresses with bridal veils, bridal overskirts, bridal jackets, and more, but this bridal sweater added a fun twist to traditional bridal accessories. While some may have paired this crepe wedding dress with a classic wedding cardigan, we love this chunky crew neck bridal sweater. With a neutral color that pops against the wedding gown, the full coverage of this knitted pullover brings focus to the silhouette of the skirt and the gown's gorgeous train.
When adding pieces to your wedding look, it’s important to consider what the item will bring to the overall aesthetic. For example, a lace wedding veil may add detail and romance to a simple wedding dress. In the case of this sweater, we think it added comfort and cozy holiday wedding styling.
Cabin Wedding Invitations
The sweater was just the start of cozy wedding vibes. The details from the green and brown wedding invitation suite showed just how charming this resort wedding venue in Nisswa, Minnesota would be. With illustrations of a cabin similar to lodging on the resort’s grounds and a lake view complete with a canoe, many of the drawings beautifully displayed all that this remote Minnesota resort had to offer.
From fir trees to the custom wedding sticker, we love that these invitations mimicked the shoot's rustic wedding vibes to a tee. When deciding on how to invite guests to your wedding or what information your wedding invitations should include, make sure to keep this stunning suite in mind.
Cozy Wedding Reception Dinner
After shooting in the cold, the snug wedding reception space felt like a true retreat from winter. With a long farm table full of candles in glasses and a baby’s breath wedding flower installation from Malana Sophia Floral hanging above, the minimal nature of this modern reception catered to the holiday style.
While most of the table decor was neutral, the gauzy light blue table runner and knotted linen napkins looked like frost among a sea of white. The wood paneled slat wall to the head of the table and on the ceiling gave the impression of a modern cabin in the woods. Large windows to the right of the table overlooked the wooded surroundings and sealed this woodland winter wedding theme.

‘BISHOP’ BY THE LABEL
BISHOP by The Label is Old-Hollywood glamour reimagined. With a high neckline and a low open back, this crepe wedding dress is both sexy and sophisticated. Brides love this backless bridal gown for its coverage in the front as well as its fitted skirt and long train. Inspired by our Texas brides, you can view BISHOP dress here.
SEND OFF IDEAS FOR WEDDING EXIT
Wedding sparkler exits and boat send offs are just a few of the many ways in which couples have creatively finished off their wedding night. Much like the laid-back luxe vibes of this styled shoot, the wedding exit was similar. A Ford Bronco awaited the couple and they climbed into the car after taking wedding portraits outside. The back of this contemporary wedding getaway vehicle was decorated with a ‘Just Married’ banner and cans dangling from the bottom. While we loved the monotone look of this banner, if you’re wondering what do you write on a car after a wedding, you can also include your new last names, wedding date, inside jokes, etc.
We hope this tasteful holiday wedding sparked your imagination. Whether you are searching for winter wedding ideas or a modern wedding venue in Minnesota, there are so many wedding planning tips to take away.
