What's more romantic than a wedding in December?
Some might think that getting married in December means giving up a warm and enveloping atmosphere, but this is not the case at all.
In winter, and in particular In December, nature surprises us with a variety of unique flowers and thanks to the creativity and expertise of the trusted flower designer, you can create floral arrangements really wintery chic and surprising.
Winter is the quintessential cold season of the year, so floral displays will aim to create a warm atmosphere through the use of flowers and plant elements combined with the wonderful magic of lights, candles, pearls, and crystals, used to embellish every space. Decorative elements, such as ceramic or glass vases and containers, can be dressed up with luxurious fabrics like velvet and mohair, perhaps even made with the help of grandma! Or felt, depending on the chosen style—more refined and elegant in the former, more rustic or country-chic in the latter.
The most romantic brides cannot do without a floral arrangement “total white”, being the white is the main color of a wedding in December, playing with cooler or warmer shades (remember that the color white is not unique, there are many types, milky white, optical white, ice white), depending on the flowers and decorative elements used for the setup.
But what are the white flowers for a December wedding? Thanks to the world of imports the variety is wide: space for amaryllis, fleshy and spectacular, with berries Hypericum (available in honey color but only), to white anemones with a black heart, to buttercups. These are some of the December flowers, real "gems" for a wedding to remember.
The more “colorful” brides can add small touches with the rosehip berries, those of St. John's Wort red, or with the hellebores, available in green, white and purple depending on the variety or cream, yellow, pink, purple, violet and black in hybrid varieties.
Another thread not to be overlooked for a wedding in December it is the Christmas one, but in this case the hand of the flower designer is essential to avoid falling into bad taste notes given by the excessive use of references to the well-known Holiday.
The December wedding with a Christmas touch will essentially privilege two color combinations:
red-white and green-red.
A red and white wedding is incredibly elegant and lends itself perfectly to decorative effects with elements and objects borrowed from cake design, such as biscuits, sugared almonds decorated with sugar flowers, cake pops and mini cakes, and small sweet gifts. These playful arrangements are themed around the Christmas holidays, creating a minimal yet highly original setting, compared to the more traditional green and red combination.
In the green red wedding, you can also use the classic poinsettias. You will need to pay close attention to the combinations of the greens available in December, passing through the green-grey of theeucalyptus, from the cineraria and of thesilver fir, to the bright green of the thuja, up to the dark green of thefir, of the pine and of theIlex, expertly combined to create an overall harmony and that magical thread red to frame the entire event.
Finally, for brides who absolutely can't do without bright colors, you can favor the warm tones of orange or yellow flowers, whose color and warmth will evoke the atmosphere of a burning fireplace in your guests' minds.
