Spread the love

Most locations are not booked up for years like they are in summer. Moreover, they are usually more affordable, so you can have a low-budget wedding without sacrificing the location. Wedding planners have more time than in summer when they sometimes have to cater for two or three weddings in one weekend. The same goes for florists, bakers, caterers, and so on. Planning can also be considerably faster this way. Spontaneous wedding in winter? No problem! And if you’re looking for a florist in Ramsgate, you’ll have plenty of options to make your winter wedding even more beautiful.

Winter Wedding Tips

There are exceptions here, of course, locations in popular winter sports resorts – these are very much in demand, especially during the colder months of the year, and should be booked well in advance. The Christmas season also tends to be somewhat unfavourable for a wedding. Christmas parties, children’s performances and the like quickly collide with the big day.

Another thing wedding couples should consider in winter is the weather. Naturally, one wishes for a dream in white and a winter wonderland, but this no longer exists in many places. Here, it’s a case of getting creative, having rubber boots and umbrellas ready for the guests, and communicating the schedule in advance. This allows everyone to be prepared for a day that could be cold and wet and possibly bring a change of clothes.

As with other sustainable weddings, it is essential to ensure that the decorations for a winter wedding are sustainable and environmentally friendly. Green hotels, mainly, are happy to support the bride and groom. Our Green Pearls® partners, for example, offer beautiful retreats with sustainable furniture, loving and seasonal decoration, and lots of lights so that this extraordinary day becomes unforgettable, often with, but of course, without snow.

A Sustainable Winter Wedding – Our Favourite Venues

Hotel Das Rübezahl in Allgäu: With a view of Neuschwanstein Castle.

“Weddings are completely personalized and are not part of a standard package,” says the team of the Hotel Das Rübezahl. Elopements, weddings for just the two of you, are particularly popular in both summer and winter. These can occur in the hotel or the middle of nature with a view of the castle. A platform at an altitude of 1320 meters is available for this purpose, providing a dreamlike backdrop for the wedding ceremony.

For larger celebrations, the rustic Rohrkopfhütte is available. Up to 60 people can party, dine and celebrate the bride and groom. You can also celebrate in the hotel. But then only in a small group, in keeping with the elopement theme 😉

Nevertheless, there is a “Say Yes” package. In the pavilion with a view of the castle, couples can say “I do” (again) under an arch full of flowers or use the location for an extraordinary marriage proposal.

HUBERTUS Mountain Refugio Allgäu: Wedding under a 2,000-year-old tree

Even though you can get married at the HUBERTUS all year round, a wedding in wintry Balderschwang is charming. Even today, the small town is relatively blessed with snow, so there’s almost nothing to get in the way of a glittering fairy-tale atmosphere.

From the balcony of the ‘WeitBlick’, couples can enjoy the snowy landscape. The bride and groom and their guests can see as far as the Swiss Alps. The spacious room is furnished with plenty of wood and radiates the rustic warmth that is perfect for a winter wedding in a small group.

A unique location for the wedding ceremony is the 2,000-year-old Old Yew Tree in Balderschwang. An extraordinary atmosphere arises during the wedding ceremony in the presence of one of the oldest trees in Germany.

Hotel Okelmann’s in Warpe: Eco Wedding in Winter

Fairy lights, fire pits, and lanterns – the atmosphere at a winter wedding at Hotel Okelmann’s is genuinely magical. With up to 80 guests, you can celebrate here privately and enjoy the time. As a trained wedding planner, Kristin Okelmann assists the bride and groom right from the planning stage and contributes her expertise and ideas for a wintery, sustainable and mindful wedding.

Sustainable Wedding in the Black Forest

Bad Herrenalb is an extraordinary place that offers wedding couples the right ambience and energy to celebrate their union. The home of the SCHWARZWALD PANORAMA is not only a recognized climatic health resort but also a place of power that invites you to a deep connection with nature. Perfect, therefore, for a romantic winter wedding.

In the SCHWARZWALD PANORAMA, the bride and groom are guided through the planning process and can choose from various packages. One of them is the Green Wedding Package, with which the wedding is entirely climate-neutral.

Afterwards, you won’t even have to travel a long way to begin enjoying your honeymoon.
