One of the things that a bride has to think about for her wedding is how her bridal party will look. If you are planning a winter wedding, this can be an interesting challenge. However there are great options and ideas that will help make everyone in your bridal party from you and your groom to the flower girl and ring bearer look their best. Here are some of them to help you get started.
First off as a bride you should start with the groomsmen. Their clothing should be the easiest to do. By now you should have chosen a theme for your winter ceremony. This means that you have chosen your design colors. For the groomsmen, it should be classic evening wear or tuxedos. The expressions of winter colors from your theme will be the tie, ascot, or what other neck wear is chosen and the vest or cummerbund. This will complete the look. Make sure that everyone is has their suits properly fitted.
The bridesmaids will be the ones who will be the focus of much of your planning. You will likely have bridesmaids of varying body types and possibly different skin tones. This can be a challenge because if you fall for the temptation of cookie cutter bridesmaids' dresses, there is a chance it will be something no one likes. When making your choices try to find match colors yes but try to go for colors and designs that can be adapted to bring out some of the best features in each of your bridesmaids. The danger in winter is the temptation to have everyone where white. Avoid doing so by choosing dark colors or icy shades of blue. You can also alternate colors for a very diverse but uniform effect. Finally make sure that the dresses are fitted properly so that there are no dress catastrophes.
For your flower girl you have a wide set of options. Since it is winter, you can forgo the traditional wreathe. For the flower basket you can have the flower girl use snow shaped confetti instead of actual flower petals. The dress can go many ways. If you are going for a winter theme choose icy colors such as light blue and grey. You might use one color for the main fabric and choose another winter shade for the ribbon trimming for the dress. You can make the dress more fanciful by making the flower girl look like a winter sprite. Use your imagination and consult with her parents as you make your choices.
For the ring bearer you can do the same thing that you did for the groomsmen. Choose a simple suit. However you can have the ring bearer where winter blue or grey suit and he will just look adorable. Choose a ring pillow that matches the theme of your ceremony and has reasonably secure ties to hold the wedding rings.
For any other members such you and the groom's parents have them where clothing that will match your theme. You can also have everyone were ornamental berries or other winter foliage as their floral decorations. In the end the result will be a well coordinated and well dressed bridal party that will be sure to be the talk of your ceremony and reception.
