Inspiration for a Christmas wedding: The space
Undoubtedly the space will be essential to make the wedding space as Christmasy as possible, so a castle, a mountain cottage, a monastery, a rural farmhouse or a palace will be the most appropriate places, and more if they are in the mountains or anywhere where the snow falls.

Inspiration for a Christmas wedding: The wedding reception
A Christmas wedding is perfect for a finger-licking menu: the traditional turkey, prawns, creams and warm soups, roast meat, suckling pig, lamb stuffed with chestnuts… the options are endless.
Dessert is a must, but this time the candy bar will have to be full of typical Christmas sweets such as marzipan, nougat, red fruits, gingerbread cookies, chocolates, roscón de reyes… or even cups of hot chocolate!
Inspiration for a Christmas wedding: Flowers
When it comes to flowers, there are no complications or indecision, because this time of year makes it very easy: poinsettias, mistletoe, holly, cotton flower, ivy ….
If you are still not convinced, you can always opt for traditional flowers and form the most wintry floral arrangements, with Christmas colors such as maroon, white or green.
Kissing under the mistletoe will never be more meaningful or special than at your wedding dance!
Inspiration for a Christmas wedding: Decoration
The quintessential element representative of Christmas is the tree, so you can’t miss it. You can place it in a small corner of the space, where you can also leave different gifts under it.
Throughout the space you can place Christmas wreaths, always in the shades of Christmas: green, red, white, gold and silver.
For the table decoration you can opt for a tartan or plaid patterned tablecloth and tableware, cutlery and glassware in golden tones to match the napkins. All combined with candles, pine cones, red fruits, holly branches… Charming centerpieces!
Lights and lighting also play a key role in a Christmas environment to give even more magic and warmth, such as through many candles or garlands of warm lights to cause a dim lighting and thus, more romantic.
