There’s so much to love about getting married in the wintertime! The coziness of being cuddled up with your sweetheart in the chilly outdoors, roaring fires and candles casting a warm light throughout those shorter days, and of course, the romantic vibes of feeling like you’re living in a snowglobe.
If you want to look chic for your cold-weather wedding, you’ve come to the right place. We’ve got a list of beautiful winter wedding dresses that would be perfect for every occasion, from a casual elopement to an elegant celebration.
What Characterizes a Winter Wedding Dress?
Given the season, it’s common for the cooler temperatures to dictate the dress decision, after all, you want to make sure you don’t freeze your tail off during the ceremony and reception!
You’ll thus see brides favoring warmth in their dress designs with more coverage, additional layers, and fuller silhouettes.
Accessorizing with winter fabrics is also a popular winter wedding choice. Cozy faux fur will add an element of luxury and comfort, a leather or jean jacket will keep you warm for those casual photoshoots in the snow, and a flannel wrap is perfect for a rustic look in front of a roaring fire!
Winter wedding gowns typically also include sleeves, which give a more formal and demure vibe. You can go the puff or cap sleeve route, 3/4 length sleeve, or full coverage down to the wrist- and there are lots of ways to make those sleeves just as beautiful as the rest of the gown!
Whether you’re a fan of the classic or vintage look, or you’re a more modern bride who’s looking for something unique and unforgettable, you’ll find something inspiring in our list of winter wedding dresses!
