If you're planning a winter wedding, you might be slightly stuck on decor. You might not want to turn your reception into Santa's grotto but still want to introduce warmth and personality into the space. Choosing the right colour palette can elevate your special day, reflecting the elegance and charm of the winter season without looking too kitschy. We've already given you the rundown on the perfect flowers for this winter season; here are nine stunning winter wedding colour combinations to inspire your celebration!

1/ Black & White

Timeless and sophisticated, black and white is arguably one of the most classic colour schemes and the perfect contrasting statement for your winter wedding. Picture bouquets of white roses and anemones, table linens matched with black table settings and bridesmaids in sleek black silk.

2/ Burgundy & White

Deep, romantic burgundy paired with fresh, crisp white is a quintessential winter palette. This combination works beautifully in floral arrangements, with burgundy roses or dahlias against white anemones or hydrangeas. Enhance the setting with pops of antique gold for warmth or muted greens for depth.

3/ Forest Green & Brown

This earthy combination evokes the cosiness of a snow-filled woodland. Use forest green foliage such as eucalyptus or pine, paired with natural wood tones in décor and accents. This palette is perfect for rustic winter weddings and pairs wonderfully with warm lighting from candles or string lights.

4/ Silver & Blue

A frosty combination of silver and blue captures the essence of a winter wonderland. Soft blue hues work well in bridesmaid dresses, paired with shimmering silver accents in décor or tableware. Incorporate silver candelabras or muted antique gold for a truly magical atmosphere.

7/ White & White

You may be sensing a pattern here; white is an unbeatable winter colour. For couples who adore simplicity, an all-white wedding exudes timeless elegance. Combine different textures—like snowy-white florals, sheer fabrics, and crisp linens—to create depth. When it comes to a one-colour scheme, playing with texture is vital to avoid things looking flat.

Another recurring player, burgundy, adds richness and depth to your floral arrangements and table decor without much work. And when paired with gold, it shines! Deep red florals contrast beautifully with shimmering gold accents in table settings, invitations, and bridal accessories.
