Winter Wedding Planning: Top Tips
Posted: August 22nd 2018
by Belle Heaphy, Sales Manager
There are many wonderful reasons to plan a winter wedding. Firstly, you won’t spend the nine months or so before your wedding Googling ‘weather in…’ to see if it’s going to rain. You don’t plan a winter wedding for blue skies and sunshine – although you might get them. Then there’s the fact that Christmas has to be one of the most romantic times of the year; twinkly fairy lights, cosy fires and what could be better than booming out your favourite Carols during your wedding ceremony? Plus, by picking a winter wedding your theme is pretty much taken care of, your wedding dress dictated by the chill in the air and your flower choice usefully slim-lined by what’s in season. But there are still some big decisions to consider when planning a winter wedding and with our ultimate guide you can tick off all the important ones without so much as an extra wrinkle on your brow.

A day at The Victoria Inn can be tough but it is all in a day’s work!
