27 Winter Wedding Color Schemes That Are Undeniably Dreamy

Okay, hear us out: These colors sound rather, um, grandmotherly when you say them out loud, but they can totally pull off that boho lewk you’re going for with a late fall or early winter wedding. The mauve works seamlessly in the floral arrangements and arch decor, but is also a big color for bridesmaids’ dresses.

Again, if you don’t want to go for basic red and green for a holiday wedding, go with a deep teal with pops of berry red and add in some wooden silverware and rattan chargers atop farmhouse tables. The rustic vibes will be impeccable, promise.

Blues have been hugely popular throughout the past few wedding seasons, and honestly, they work with a winter theme to create a whole icy feel. It’s been well established that your bridesmaids’ dresses don’t have to be matching in style or shade, so that’s the perfect moment to play up those powdery blue hues.

When I think of the months from October through March, I think of this rich wine color (and actual wine, ofc). Especially when you accent it with navy as a neutral and even a lil bit of gold, it flows so well with everything from your signage and seating charts to your florals, bridesmaids dresses, and groomsmen ties.

I personally wouldn’t have thought to put these two colors together, so I’m glad someone else did because wow. If a boho-chic desert wedding is in the cards for you, this should be your color palette. The terracotta color is so vivid on in tablescapes, in your florals, or in a bridesmaid’s dress.

Winter does *not* have to be a boring time color wise, but if you want to keep it extra simple in order to let dramatic lighting or an opulent venue take center stage, neutrals are your BFFs. Ivories and blushes are obv classic and gorgeous in a bouquet, and champagne slip dresses were the big bridesmaid trend of fall weddings this year, so why not embrace it?!

Having an intimate warehouse or wine cellar wedding? Create the exact right aesthetic with moody lighting and copper accents, and add some simple greenery into the mix to keep in line with that same minimalism.

Play up the hues of a starry, snowy night with this muted blue as your focal point and pair it with white accents. This is similar to the powder blue mentioned above, but a bit deeper. Any tablescape will look both elegant and understated in the soft tone, and it works so well for winter months.

The combo of warm pink and dark green creates a cozy vibe that’s perfect for an indoor or outdoor winter wedding. Your favorite florals will look gorge in these modern blush vases. They vary in size, too, so you can have an eclectic mix-and-match moment. Or, think of sage as your base, while the pink could serve as the pop (in your flowers, centerpieces, vases, and cake topper) that ties it all together.

These colors will totally put your guests at ease. Marigold is perfect for the daytime, so it’s a good choice if you’re getting married in the morning or hosting a more casual affair. Pair the flower marigolds with ivory roses in your bouquet, and warm up the rest of the venue’s decor with splashes of yellow.

Lean into the elegance of the season with all things deep blue and purple. As the color of royalty, purple deserves a spot in your bridal party’s attire (it works for both bridesmaid dresses and groomsmen suits!), on your tablescape, and in your aisle runners. So elevated and lovely.

If you’re planning to get married on New Year’s Eve, listen up, because you should seriously consider black and gold as your theme. The luxurious combo will make your guests feel like they’re at a party in Gatsby’s mansion. Gold should be the focal point, while black accents will make everything feel über fancy.

The warm colors of a winter sunrise play off the dark Christmassy pine to create a mood that’s both seductive and inviting. Orange and pink flowers will stand out in your bouquet and the bridesmaid dresses, while deep green accents on the tables will keep the shindig from feeling too summery.

Bring the drama with these romantic hues. Moody burgundy can set the tone for an evening wedding in the groomsmen’s suits, the table settings, and the flowers, while the ballerina pink can soften the atmosphere and insert moments of sweetness.

If you want your day to feel decadent and maybe even a bit over the top (hey, definitely not judging), then you should consider bathing your entire wedding in gold. From the aisle to the flowers to your jewelry, gold will feel warm, sophisticated, and one of a kind. Unsolicited suggestion: Make “Golden” by Harry Styles your reception entrance song. And this golden arch mirror would look amazing at any bougie wedding reception. Imagine all the selfies your guests could take!

Your wedding will feel like a bougie French hotel—classy and chic—with a little je ne sais quoi that’ll make everyone jealous. Blend the deeper colors for your bouquet and bridal party ensembles, and use the lighter shades to brighten your tablescapes and aisle runner. Très jolie.

These softer colors bring out the natural earth tones of winter, so your soiree will feel at one with the season. Light lavender flowers, bridesmaid dresses, and accessories will contrast with moody gray tablescapes and groomsmen suits. It’s basically the wintery way to do pastels.

This dark shade of green can help create a rustic, outdoorsy vibe, even if you’re hosting your wedding indoors. The bridesmaid dresses will pop, and understated leafy centerpieces will look elegant. Accents of white throughout will ensure that the event still exudes bridal energy. A mist and white color scheme allows you to keep the flowers simple. Opt for some pretty white roses amidst greenery. So classic. So elegant.

Another classy combo: Navy blue can be your neutral while gold can add some pop through select accents. It’s a sophisticated palette that’ll look festive without overwhelming the event.

If you wanna go bold, pair these shades of blue to create a winter wonderland. The icy vibe is so appropriate given the season and can create the feeling that you’re celebrating inside a snow globe. And just think: Your whole wedding can be your “something blue.”
