Winter weddings don’t exactly carry the same implications here in Miami as they do elsewhere. But just because we substitute white sand for white snow, doesn’t mean that brides can’t create a winter setting – or avail themselves of one of the more sophisticated wedding palettes trending this winter, ivory and gray.
This classic color scheme allows for rich layering and texturing while remaining ever elegant. What may be of particular interest to Miami brides is that by utilizing certain gray-toned floral elements with their ivory flowers – succulents, eucalyptus leaves and berries, for instance – the bouquet can appear a bit “ice-kissed”, adding a unique winter touch to the South Florida wedding. Grays are remarkably classic, and your groom and groomsmen will look both fashionable and urbane; don’t forget to add the suave ivory rose boutonniere as a final touch. At your receptions, the grays can take the form of luxe satin napkins, pewter place settings or charcoal pencil drawn place cards .
If you are looking for ways to turn your tropical venue into a bit of a winter wonderland, here are some great tips to get you started. Grey metallic details on an all-white wedding cake is one of the hottest trends of the season; adding clear rock candy will give an icy accent. Crystal “icicles” hanging from chandeliers and wispy snow-white feathers in your centerpieces will evoke feelings of chillier climes; while sending your guests home with white chocolate snowflakes is a delicious way to give a nod to the winter time frame.
