Holly. Pine Cone Brown. Winterberry. The color names alone have us feeling all warm and fuzzy with holiday cheer. So what an ideal trio of colors they make for a Christmas wedding! Rustic and woodsy. Natural and fresh. Festive and heartwarming. All of these qualities and more are what you can bring to your wintertime nuptials\u2014just as these breathtaking images we found prove.<\/p>\n
Notice how these three hues are all nature inspired\u2014you might even say, Bambi inspired! The fresh green of holly. The rugged brown of pine cones. The merry red of berries. A palette that lends itself perfectly to a whimsical woodland-themed wedding<\/strong> made magical with a sprinkling of frost.<\/p>\n Once you say \u2018rustic\u2019 or \u2018woodland,\u2019 then you\u2019ve got to think texture. And what rich and varied ones you can style with! There\u2019s bark and bare wood, pine needles and holly, burlap and sisal twine. And amidst all those organic elements in greens and browns is where the pops of red come in\u2014via winterberries, of course, but also cranberries or cherries, poinsettia, faux red cardinals, and crimson holiday candles.<\/p>\n Now, here\u2019s how to infuse your wedding scene with that wintry woodland mystique. Starting with your ceremony details, how gorgeous would a holly and berries<\/strong> bouquet be for you!<\/p>\n The reception decor, meanwhile, can truly take your guests into an elegantly enchanted forest. Just look how enticing that dessert table<\/strong> is with chocolate-dipped red Anjou pears and a sweet sprig of berries. Or you could add a tiny \u2018Bambi\u2019 figurine<\/strong> to the cake display or as a darling cake topper.<\/p>\n And speaking of your wedding cake<\/strong>, this is where you can really showcase the woodland motif\u2014with a tiered creation entwined with a woody vine, leaves and berries. While the guest table settings can feature lush all-leaf centerpieces<\/strong> paired with candles, and rustic-chic place card holders<\/strong> made of painted pine cones with pearl beads tucked in.<\/p>\n A holiday wedding is already such a joyous occasion. But toss in a woodland theme decked out in this Christmasy palette and you\u2019ve got sentimental charm as well!<\/p>\n Image credits:<\/em><\/p>\n Foliage centerpiece – Honey of a Thousand Flowers<\/a> \/ Leo Patrone Photography<\/a>, via Once Wed<\/a> Holly.
