Winter Wedding Receptions in 2020 & 2021

Although spring and summer are the most popular seasons to hold weddings, winter weddings are becoming more and more popular. There's no setting more romantic than a winter wedding, especially if you live somewhere it snows. The sparkling blanket of snow adds so much ambiance to the backdrop of your wedding pictures. When planning your wedding there is so much to consider including your wedding colors and theme, the decorations that will help make everything pop, the venue, and more.

Experiment with Winter Wedding Colors and Textures

When it comes to winter weddings, whites, greens, and reds are popular. However, it's safe to deviate from what is popular and experiment with other colors, especially your favorite colors. Pastels are great for winter weddings as they offer soft and sometimes frosty looking hues to compliment the season. Bold colors are also fun for winter weddings especially when you add rich textures like flannel or velvet to help compliment the color theme. Some popular color schemes for 2020 and 2021 include:

Rose Gold and Burgundy
Forest Green, Black, and White
Chocolate Brown and Red
Silver and Gray
Dusty Blue and Blush
Light Grey and Silvery Green
Light Rose and Pale Blush
Navy and Forest Green
Navy and Red/Burgundy
Red and Green

Winter Wedding Themes and Decorations

Just because you are having a winter wedding doesn't mean you have to have a traditional winter wonderland theme. Although this theme always goes over well with guests and planning, there are many other ideas to choose from. If you stick with color themes, add in some decorations that will help make the table settings pop. You could incorporate a hot chocolate bar into your reception plans to give that cozy, wintertime feel. The possibilities are endless. Some common winter wedding themes

include:

Winter Wonderland
Vintage (Great Gatsby)
Holly Berries and Evergreens
Winter Travel Destinations
Holiday Glam/Christmas
Let It Snow
Flannel and Cozy
New Years Eve

Why Catering Thanksgiving Is A Good Idea

By ctpost • October 30, 2020

Thanksgiving dinner is one of the biggest meals of the year and it kicks off the holiday season, often with a big family gathering. Thanksgiving is a time for gratitude, overindulging in delicious food and spending time with your family. The traditional Thanksgiving dinner consists of turkey, mashed potatoes, stuffing, green beans, cranberry sauce, and for a lot of people, much more. Every family has their own traditions, but the most important thing is to spend time together talking, catching up, and making new memories. Now, more than ever, it is important to prioritize your precious time with your loved ones. While some families spend the whole day in anticipation while they smell their meal cooking, it is usually a select few who are under pressure to prepare all the dishes, and desserts—those pies won’t be making themselves after all—and that includes getting the timing for everything right.
