It's really getting cold now that we're into December. The days are getting shorter and darker, so if you plan on getting married around this time of year, it's important to plan a way to keep warm on your wedding day, and that doesn't just mean grabbing your bog-standard coat on the way out the door to the church. Your wedding outfit is a complete ensemble with every element of it carefully thought out, which includes your accessories and cover-ups if they're necessary. And at this time of year, we think they're definitely necessary. There are plenty of options available for brides who want to keep warm on their winter wedding day, so what could we do, but search for warm inspiration from Instagram for our top five warm bridal accessories?

Winters in Ireland are only getting colder and we're starting to see more snow in December too. Winter weather means winter warmers are necessary, and probably for the bridal party as much as the bride so if you are opting for a winter wedding, keep the bridal party in mind as much as yourself. We adore these faux fur covers from Instagram and they add the perfect amount of luxury to your wedding ensemble. For a bit more Gatsby glamour, an ostrich feather wrap will add some vintage magic. Take our Insta-inspiration to help you decide how best to keep yourself warm on your wedding day. After all, the last thing you want after your wedding is to get sick from being out in the cold winter wedding for your professional photographs.
