For many couples, it is unimaginable to get married in the cold season. But more and more are daring to do something special and are being rewarded. Our top 10 reasons why you should get married in sub-zero temperatures and snow show why weddings in winter are a great idea.
- White is trump!
Not only the wedding dress in classic white, but also a white and snowy environment increases the glamour factor of every wedding. The white elements can be integrated particularly well into the wedding decoration. Snowflakes, orchids (which can initiate the transition to a second color), a white wedding car or even a horse-drawn sleigh. White is a timelessly beautiful color that usually avoids faux pas. - Cold makes everything cozier
For many people, getting married in sub-zero temperatures is a nightmare, but it is precisely these external circumstances that can be perfectly turned into an advantage. People get closer together and the atmosphere can be used accordingly. At a winter wedding, you don't have to do without the champagne reception outside, but you should perhaps offer Jägertea and mulled wine as alternatives. After a cold start outside, the feel-good atmosphere inside a location is even greater, especially if there is a fireplace. - No stress when organizing
Another advantage is obvious: fewer scheduling conflicts. At least if you avoid having a wedding in the run-up to Christmas, most locations, bands , photographers and guests will find time. This flexibility of the required service providers saves the bride and groom a lot of stress and hassle. This means that even short-notice weddings can be arranged without any problems. - Financial benefits
Many locations offer special offers for weddings in winter and you can negotiate good discounts at almost all of them. Bands and photographers are also sometimes not fully booked in the winter months and can offer cheap packages. It's best to ask directly! - Other honeymoon destinations
Italy, Egypt, Spain, ... these are the typical destinations for a honeymoon if you're celebrating in the summer. But if you're having a wedding in the winter, completely different options open up, at least if you want to get away from the wedding straight away for your honeymoon. Thailand, Australia, the Maldives, Dubai, etc. are then on the flight ticket. Perfect destinations for the best time for two! - Incredible wedding pictures
Kissing in a white winter landscape as bride and groom, dreamily in front of a frozen lake or snuggling under a blanket in a horse-drawn sleigh. Not many couples have wedding pictures like this! With the wintry nature and the special lighting conditions, good photographers can take sensationally beautiful pictures for eternity. A clear plus for winter! - Happy bridesmaids
The bridesmaids' dresses are always a tricky thing: some are too colorful, others too revealing, and still others look more like sacks. In winter conditions, the choice of hideous dresses is somewhat limited and adventurous color combinations are unlikely. That alone lifts the mood of the bride's guard. - Fewer "apostates"
Who likes to spend a long time outside in sub-zero temperatures? Heavy smokers, fresh air fanatics and social slackers find it much harder to avoid the festivities in winter. What at first glance seems like the beginning of torture, in the best case scenario leads to a stronger community at the party and the inclusion of those who are actually on the sidelines. - No wedding crashers
No, we don't mean the semi-funny Hollywood movie, they really do exist: people who show up at a wedding uninvited. Anyone who has experienced this at another wedding knows that you don't want something like that at your own party. Often the reason for the spontaneous visit is quickly found. Beer festivals, garden parties and similar festivities in the warmer months are breeding grounds for this type of uninvited guest. In winter, therefore, it is more of an exception. - Because it's winter!
Yes, that is one reason. For us at least. We love winter in all its many facets. It is the season that strengthens love, strengthens togetherness and promotes closeness. The perfect conditions for entering into a lifelong commitment!
