Winter Wedding Tips for New Year!


Planning a winter wedding for next year? Don’t settle for pinecones and snowflakes for your decor; get creative! Here are some new ways to incorporate winter into your winter reception motif, without being too cliché.

Centerpieces and table decorations can have a huge impact on the vibe at your reception. Instead of going with pinecones and lanterns for a typical winter centerpiece, try something more dramatic. Use tall and decorative vases for your reception tables and add tall winter branches and hanging crystals to your floral arrangements. The combination of these two design elements will add romance and elegance to your dinning area. For added romance and a touch of warmth, add small votive candles around the centerpieces and use frosted glass or silver china for dinner service!

For cocktail hour, hot chocolate and apple cider are typical inclusions you may want to consider, but why not do something a little different as well? Offer up white or peppermint hot chocolate and eggnog in small espresso cups or punch glasses as they arrive to the reception/cocktail hour. At the bar, offer chocolate martinis or mixed drinks with peppermint liqueur in them to expand the winter feel even farther! Both cocktail options should be served with a peppermint or sugar rim, in a decorative martini or cocktail glass for that added touch.

When planning a winter wedding, be sure and incorporate some new, fresh ideas to really make it stand out and feel more elegant. When searching for the centerpieces, vases, and glassware for your unique reception, be sure and check out Action Rentals! Action carries a variety of vases, centerpieces, and cocktail hour glasses, so you’re sure to set your big day apart from the rest!

Wedding Theme: Rustic

Picking a wedding theme can be a hard decision to make, but picking the right decorations can be an even harder decision. One of the most popular and breathtaking wedding themes to focus on is the Rustic Theme. A Rustic Theme can be utilized in almost any season, making it an extremely versatile option for any bride. This theme can allude to a sense of intimacy and romance that most brides covet on their special day.

Rustic themes are all about the details. But what details should you include? A few large pieces can really help establish your theme, such as wooden arches for the ceremony and whiskey barrels for the cocktail hour. During the ceremony be sure to include aged wooden chairs for the guests, a burlap or moss-covered pillow for the ring bearer, and lace and baby’s breath aisle decorations.

Table decorations for dinner could include burlap accents and table runners, as well as jars and vases with a rustic touch for the centerpieces. A rustic hutch or cabinet could make a perfect beverage station or dessert area. For the smaller details, be sure to include some wooden accents, birdcages, or even some chalkboard signs directing your guests to the reception.

Whatever decorations your rustic themed wedding needs, Action Party Rentals can handle. Action also has the widest selection of quality wedding decorations, for any theme!
