In recent years we have noticed a marked increase in the number of brides who are shunning a traditional spring or summer wedding for a winter wonderland spectacular and as a result enquiries for our Bridal Fabrics have picked up a pace even considering that "wedding season" itself has long since come to an end. As stunning as a traditional summer wedding can be there is a magic about winter wedding that is extra special. Featuring log fires, twinkly fairy lights and perhaps even a light dusting os now, a winter wedding can be truly spectacular and gives you the perfect opportunity to be creative with your decor, photography and your gown. There are also a number of practical reasons that a bride to be may opt for a winter wedding including schedule, availability of suppliers and budget reasons.

For summer weddings we see similar colours retaining their popularity year after year, in particular pastel shades such as pink and blue paired with bouquets crafted from beautiful summer time blooms such as lilies and roses. However, for a winter celebrations, brides may choose to experiment with a deeper and more dramatically elegant palette resulting in a rise in the sale of Bridal Fabrics such as sensational scarlets, purples and even black. Paired with bouquets and venue decor made from beautiful winter ornaments such as berries, holly and ivy you can achieve a remarkable effect. As with any summer wedding the most important aspect of a winter wonderland celebration is the brides gown; many winter brides will choose to opt for a more dramatic gown utilising cooler tones such as bronze, gold and silver. Our collection of duchess satin fabrics are the ideal choice of Bridal Fabric for an elegant winter wedding gown; due to their excellent weight duchess satin duchess satin fabrics are ideal for heavier, fairytale style gowns.
Of course, comfort and warmth is a particularly important consideration for a winter wedding but this does not mean that you have to compromise on style. Traditionally, winter brides would choose a stylish stole to keep themselves warm and comfortable during the ceremony and outdoor photographs however, designers such as Oscar de la Renta showcasing their stunning collection of winter bridal couture, winter brides have become more bold and adventurous with their wedding day designs. Many modern winter brides will choose a cape, shawl or even a full length coat crafted from more contemporary Bridal Fabrics such as faux fur and velvet.
