It might be Winter, but say hello to peculiar and delightful colour schemes…

A Christmas wedding is a little different as it’s a time of year when there’s no embargo when it comes to introducing all kinds of weird and wonderful colours. Colour, colour and plenty of it is the trick and Christmas allows you to blend colours like never before.

How? Traditional dark greens and reds are the colours that immediately spring to mind at Christmas. But why select colours that are everywhere? No, you want to be that little bit different which means shades of purple, silver, gold, and bronze, work great together. Intersperse these with plenty of creams and whites and you’ll be creating the kind of attractive colour scheme to brighten up a winter’s day - colours that you simply wouldn’t get away with any other time of year.

The embedded image we all have of Christmas is sparkle, multicolour and tinsel. One giant Christmas tree of the mind, basically! You might be wondering at this stage how such an array of colour can be incorporated. It’s simple: giant baubles hanging from ceilings, arches and doorways are a great way to splash colour everywhere. In fact, the hotel may already be one step ahead and have it done. Giant wreaths hanging off walls and halls is another great way to spread colour. Remember that a Christmas wedding is one that allows you to use colour in a way that doesn’t work as well in autumn, spring or summer. Why not avail of the opportunity and dazzle your guests in a way they’ll never forget.
