Autumn and winter weddings are easily some of the most beautiful, but it can mean that you and your guests are at the mercy of cold weather if you want to have your event outdoors. Here are some ideas to help you have the winter wedding of your dreams in the outdoor venue of your dreams!

- Dress Warmly
You and your wedding party would benefit from accessorizing warmly. Beautiful matching shawls or pashminas will keep the bridal party just as toasty as the groomsmen in their jackets. As the bride, you may wish to include a fur shawl or thick wrap to match your dress.
- Serve Hot Drinks
Warm beverages such as coffee, hot chocolate, tea or cider can be both thematically appropriate and provide additional warmth for your guests.
- Heat Lamps
Heat lamps come in many shapes, sizes and styles and can be incorporated into your fall or winter design with ease.
- Candles
Consider having candles as part of your table decor. So long as they’re safely used, candles can make both an aesthetically pleasing addition to the design of your centerpieces but also one that offers additional warmth.
- Fully Enclosed Tents
Renting fully enclosed tents rather than open-sided ones will help contain heat and protect you and your guests from the elements.
- Cozy Keepsakes
Opt for a cozy favor for your wedding, such as blankets, winter gloves, hand warmers, thermoses or coffee to go.
- Warm Up the Menu
Hot soup and other warm winter fare might be just what your wedding party and guests need. The possibilities are limitless. A hot chocolate bar with all the toppings or chocolate lava cakes in mugs will both excite and warm your family and friends.
- Dance
Having a dance floor will give guests a chance to warm themselves up and have fun at the same time.
- Plush Decor
Consider adding thematically appropriate pillows and blankets in the lounge or sitting areas for the guests to get cozy and warm. You may also think about adding fur chair covers.
- Warming Stations and Warm Activities
Offer your guests strategically placed warming stations or warm activities such as roasting marshmallows.
