Christmas is not just a wonderful time for proposals but also a perfect time to plan a Christmas wedding. With the long holidays and families coming together for Christmas, it is easy to plan a Christmas themed wedding. For men, it is an easy anniversary date to remember! 
Christmas Wedding Invitations
Start off your Christmas wedding with beautiful Christmas themed wedding cards. The green and red often associated with Christmas provide a lovely colour combination for your wedding invitations. A red satin ribbon provides an elegant touch or stick on a sprig of holly to create a splash of green for a unique wedding invitation.
Alternatively, consider blue and silver or red and gold colour combinations which are equally festive and look lovely as a wedding theme.

Christmas Lights & Decoration
- Christmas season is a great time to buy inexpensive Christmas lights which create a magical effect when strung across the ceiling of your reception hall. Switch them on for a unique starlight experience which will look absolutely beautiful during your walk-in. Alternatively, wrap them in white tulle for a softer and almost fairy-tale effect.
- Christmas wreaths with white or gold bows and red ivy hung on the walls add a wonderfully festive air to your Christmas wedding.
- To celebrate Christmas with all your guests, consider having a big Christmas tree in the middle of your reception area which makes a pretty and unique wedding decoration idea.
Christmas Wedding Favours
Go absolutely creative with your wedding favours! A Christmas theme makes it easy to plan for festive and unique wedding favours you can’t do at any other time of the year.
- Why not consider having little gingerbread men wrapped in festive red paper as your favours? Or for a personal touch, home make them for a delicious treat for your guests!
- Pretty little Christmas ornaments and candles make lovely wedding favours and a wonderful addition to your guests’ Christmas trees. They will absolutely love them!
- For some sweetness to your wedding reception, why not consider giving out mini Christmas canes or little Christmas candies?
Christmas Centrepieces
- Christmas is another great time to easily find pretty Christmas candles which make beautiful centrepieces for your table. Simply lay them on a glass plate, sprinkle some gold glitter and watch your guests’ delight at these beautiful yet inexpensive centrepiece ideas.
- A Christmas wreath also makes a wonderful centrepiece. Lay it flat on the table, stick in a big candle in the middle and smaller candles by the side for a green and festive centrepiece. Top it up with some red berries for some colorful contrast.
Wedding Cakes
Christmas also makes a great theme for your wedding cake.
- Have pretty cakes decorated like gift boxes stacked up on top of one another for a pretty Christmas wedding cake.
- Bake little mini Christmas cupcakes or frosted cookies for your guests to enjoy instead of having one big wedding cake.
Having your wedding during the Christmas season can also help you save on church decorations as churches and chapels often already have some Christmas decoration in place for the festive season. Try to work around the decoration, add some candles and festive lights and wreaths of your own to have a beautifully decorated church which will look absolutely beautiful in photographs.
With these tips, it isn’t difficult to plan your Christmas wedding! Happy planning!
