Wedding ideas: Winter weddings

December 8, 2009

Bride and groom in the snow at Donovan Pavilion in Vail, Colorado
Christmastime wedding at Donovan Pavilion in Vail, Colorado

Today’s snowy weather has inspired me to do a Wedding Ideas post all about winter weddings. Colorado is famous for its winters and champagne powder, so it’s a particularly beautiful time to get married. It’s certainly romantic to snuggle up next to someone as the snow falls.

A note to all you wedding planners out there:
I have a huge section of my website devote to wedding inspiration: Wedding Ideas
I hope it’s helpful for you!

WOW! Beautiful photos! I love winter events. I had a winter wedding too, 12/1/07, but unfortunately, it was horrible weather. But nonetheless, it was a beautiful day.

That first pic (exterior – Christmas tree) is SO perfect, that it actually looks like a fake backdrop. AWESOME That picture, had it been my wedding, would have been worth ALL the effort and money to put on a grand affair of a wedding!

It is really interesting godsend – this winter wedding which look like a fairy tale! Once I wished to do a winter wedding because I was born in Siberia and lived there the most part of my life. But happens so that my wedding was in the autumn in Prague(Czechia)

I bet an autumn wedding in Prague was gorgeous! And it’s so cool to meet someone from Siberia. I love hearing from people around the world!
