I'd love to meet you all, know what your colors are, inspiration, theme, what your gown looks like, where you are getting married, and any other details you may wish to share. Together we can all plan the most perfect December weddings!

We are having a private Christmas wedding in Natchez, MS at a fabulous historic mansion now an Inn. Can't wait!! We will have about 12 guests ( immediate family and witnesses). It's 3 hours from our hometown. So a mini destination wedding. Our colors are pale pink, burgundy, ivory, and rose gold. My wedding gown is a warm, pale pink named Meena by Martin Thornburg. My shoes are Jimmy Choo's that I bought on FARFETCH for a bargain. I love how sparkly they are. My purse is sitting in my skirt ruffles and its by Mary Frances ( that is the true color of my dress, more warm pink than in designer pics). I'm a veil designer so I'm hoping to have a hatbox cake similar to this, but a bit more elaborate. Ha! Ha! We are planning a 3:00pm ceremony. We are going to mini-moon at this Inn in their gorgeous bridal suite. Planning a very large black-tie wedding reception for May. Here are a few photos of what we have going on so far for our Christmas Wedding. I have fallen in love with that bouquet. Another WW bride had it as her photo and she kindly sent it to me.

The fur-baby pictured is my 13 1/2 year old service dog named Gaston. He will be our Pup Of Honor, God-willing.

I hope we all become the best of friends during this most exciting and stressful times of our lives!! 😂 Big hug to each of you!! 💕💖

    I am a November 22nd bride, so close enough! Venue is a historic Spanish style hotel with courtyard overlooking the ocean. It will be an outdoor courtyard ceremony, indoor dinner and outdoor dancing. We live in Florida so hope weather will cooperate but have heat lamps if needed. My theme will be white pumpkin, colors will be shades of dusty green, gold and white.

    Hi Amanda!! Your chapel is GORGEOUS!! Love it!! Will you have an aisle runner, petals on the sides? I adore blue and silver for December. There is another bride in this discussion who is having blue and silver. I'm sorry, but right now I don't remember who it is. 😔 Maybe you two can get ideas from each other. Of course, we are all willing to give opinions. Ha! Ha! If your immediate family is that large I can easily see 100 guests. It'll be fine. What does your reception venue look like?

    Too right, Jessica! Welcome!! 💕 Your venue sounds stunningly beautiful. Do you have pics? I hope the weather cooperates, too. Unfortunately, you are still in hurricane season, but barely. We rarely get one that late in the year. Thank God. Love your colors!! White pumpkins are one of my favorite fall decorations. They are fabulous!! Look forward to hearing more. Do you have your gown?

    I dont think were going to do anything on the aisle. They dont allow runners because of the marble (they had a runner slip) and they said we can do artificial petals, but that all of that kind of stuff is our responsibility to pick up before we go to the reception hall. The reception hall isn't anything special, just a typical banquet hall, but it's right across the parking lot from the chapel and we got a great deal booking them together

    Here are pics of the venue. I am not too worried about hurricane season, ours dies down beginning of October. I am more concerned about the cold!

    I am in LOVE! with this forum! 😍 Hello fellow December brides!!!!!!

    We are getting married December 2nd. FH tried to convince me on a December wedding and I was totally against it, until I had a dream the night before we went to see our venue. I had this dream of us dancing underneath this giant Christmas tree, and everything was so warm and happy, and I was sold LOL.

    Our theme is UFC at Christmas. So the venue will already be decorated for Christmas ❤️ Gauzy streamers, big lights, beautiful wreaths and a MASSIVE Christmas tree! And then we’ll add our own touches of the UFC. (Press passes and cameras, an octagon card box, a fight poster as our guest book, and a few other things) Our colors are burgundy, blush, pearl, and rose gold ❤️ I’m so excited I can hardly stand it!!!!

    Our venue is tucked away in the mountains of North Georgia so, the view is breathtaking 😍 FH catered a wedding at the venue when he was in high school and decided if he ever got married, it would be there! Now I’m excited our time has finally come!!!!!!!!

    The first two pictures are of the venue. (The first one is during Breakfast with Santa, so ignore the people lol) and then my dress, and my bouquet 😍 I truly love all you fellow December brides and can’t wait to plan together!!!

    That makes sense. Marble can be slippery. Make sure you scuff your shoes. I definitely wouldn't want family to have to clean up before going to the reception. I just love your chapel. I'm sure the banquet hall will be lovely, too. That is so convenient to be that close together. Your guests will appreciate that!!

    These are my bridesmaids dresses. The perfect look 😍 High low skirts with an off the shoulder lace detail 😍 Amazon coming in for the win!

    and my invitations are 100% DIY. We’re doing all the foiling ourselves ❤️ FH’s uncle designed the invitations for me after an idea I sent him off Pinterest.

    Alrighty, well thanks to Victorian Bride, I was invited to join this discussion and share my plans for my wedding.
    It is on December 13, 2019. My FH only ageed to have a December wedding if it was on Friday the 13th. 😂
    I have a very elegant, winter wedding in my mind.
    So far we are going with ivory, cranberry red, and marine blue as our colors.
    FH is wearing a black kilt, BM's will be wearing the blue. My dress is a blush color.
    I'm getting married at Boulder Creek by Wedgewood.
    We are going to have a sand ceremony for our wedding, which I specially ordered sands from Scotland for.
    We both have Scottish heritage and will be honey mooning in Scotland.
    I already order my card box, just got our save the dates, and our guest book canvas just arrived.
    ((Sorry if it seems like random details. Haha))

    Hmm...I'm actually leaning to #2 because it seems to fit more of your overall Victorian romance vibe. I don't recall you pulling many Christmas decor elements into your wedding??? That said, #1 does have a *slight* vintage vibe so if you love it, go for it!

    Haaley, EVERYTHING is simply gorgeous- bridesmaids gowns, inspiration. Do you have that tiara, or is it a headband? It's so pretty. Your cake definitely looks like December. Lace booties are precious. Where'd you get those? I can't wear them for my wedding since FH and I are the same height and I don't want to be taller that day. Ha! Ha! Thank you so much for joining our discussion. ❤
