Tis Christmas Week Folks! Apologies we've been a bit under the weather for the last while, but we're warming up now for the big day on Saturday. Hope you're all coping with the sneachta! This week we're kicking off with a little bit of seasonal inspiration, for those of you thinking of a winter wedding over the next year or so. In keeping with the week that's in it we're going very festive with warm burgundy, forest green and crisp snow white theme for the perfect Christmas wedding or New Year nuptials...

The Perfect Winter Wedding: Roaring Fires, Mulled Wine and a Dusting of Snow Outside...

The festive Christmassy colours of burgundy red, forest green and snow white are perfectly suited for a December wedding.

The beautiful Winter Bride is the work of  Alison Conklin. If it's your first Christmas together - make sure and mark it with a special Mr & Mrs ornament on the tree like this from The Back Porch Shoppe on Etsy. Set the Christmas wedding mood in August with a festive invitation, like this ornament on red from Modern Girl Invitations. For the Christmas-time groom, a berry and pinecone buttonhole gives a festive touch (via The Knot). And for the bride's day after outfit, a fun festive party dress like this gorgeous red satin knot dress from Reiss
