• Tie the traditional Christmas colors into your wedding. Red, Green, White, Silver all work.

• Decorate pews or chairs with small simple wreaths.

• Use sugared fruit in an arrangement as centerpieces.

• Shop for tulle, ribbon, and beads outside of the “bridal” section in craft and fabric stores for a price difference.

• Decorate with lots of tulle with white lights intertwined.

• If time permits, buy Christmas ornaments, ribbon, candles etc. at after Christmas sales months before your Christmas wedding.

• Use luminaries to light pathways, serving tables and platforms.

Use a theme for your Christmas Wedding…

Some themes lend themselves to beautiful Christmas wedding decorations.

• Winter Wonderland Theme: Think of using snowflakes, paper confetti, faux fur, silver ornaments, Baby’s Breath in wreaths and arrangements. Use color combinations like Blue, White and Silver, Gold and White or Silver and White. Make centerpieces using mirrors with artificial flowers, bare branches or ornaments on top. Add glitter for a special sparkle.

• Santa’s Workshop Theme: Rent nice costumes of Santa and Mrs. Clause. Decorate the reception with fake wrapped packages, A Christmas Tree, fake snow and serve eggnog.

• Have someone make you a Gingerbread House Cake. Instead of cake, serve your guests cupcakes decorated with small or crushed candy canes. Make your place cards out of Gingerbread men. Use lots toys as centerpieces. Get really funky and dress you bridesmaids and groomsmen as elves.

• Country Christmas Wedding Decorations theme: Think hayrides and horse drawn carriages. Use grapevine wreaths, chunky candles, gingham fabrics, popcorn garland and gingerbread cookie ornaments. Use cinnamon sticks in your centerpieces or around candles. Bridesmaids can carry decorated grapevine or evergreen wreaths instead of flowers.

• A Tropical Christmas Wedding: Palm trees in any form are a must. Decorate them in white or green lights. Use tropical fruit (if available) in your centerpieces. Cover tables with white or tropical colored sheer fabrics for a light look. Use cool colors like melons, pinks, and frost, blues and greens. Decorate with tropical colored glass ball ornaments.

The possibilities for Christmas Wedding decorations are endless. Many of the ideas we mentioned can mix and matched. With careful planning, you can also save a lot of money.
