With romantic roaring fires, a sprinkling of snow and glamorous faux furs what’s not to love about a winter wedding? On top of that, your guests will be excited to have something to look forward to as the evenings close in and the rush of summer weddings has long passed. With winter weddings still being fairly uncommon, your guests will also have fewer preconceived ideas about what to expect leaving you with plenty of opportunity to surprise and delight them and more than likely convince a few future couples that you can’t beat a winter bash. So, whether you’re planning the new year’s eve celebration of the century, or an elopement on the slopes we’ve got you covered with winter wedding inspired stationery. Typically, a winter wedding calls for darker more dramatic colours or glamorous gold and silver metallics. Patterns are less seasonally inspired, but you can still find floral wedding invite designs with a winter vibe, along with more modern wedding invitation designs and, of course, the traditional invitation, simple with a bold border and beautiful typography has not only stood the test of time but also the change of season. Have a look below at winter wedding invitations which we love to inspire your search.
Blue and cream
This strong, dark and mysterious invitation is perfect for a winter wedding. The dark hues and off-white tones give this template a cold weather vibe. However, its relatively simple watercolour design ensure it remains elegant and stylish. The blue and cream colour will match most colour palettes, and it will look simply stunning when paired alongside silver or gold.
