Some wedding dresses even come with removable sleeves, a versatile option for going from the ceremony to the dance floor.\n\nIn addition, elbow-length gloves, shawls and faux fur wraps are all excellent options to accompany sleeveless wedding gowns. Dresses with a sweetheart or v-shaped neckline can call attention to something old or borrowed, like a pendant or pearls, and pair nicely with matching earrings. \n\nHair accessories complement the perfect updo; regal tiaras and shimmering modern coronets are ideal for brides who crave that touch of sparkle. Decorative barrettes and hair clips can be either subtle or bold and offer a festive touch for long hairstyles. \n\nBrides may want to consider a cathedral-length wedding veil as a finishing touch to an elegant wedding gown, or a chapel or fingertip-length veil to match a form-fitting dress. \n\nExplore our entire selection before making a final choice!

Popular winter wedding colors include shades of red, like moody crimson and burgundy, festive emerald green and sultry dark blues. Some brides choose the same dress style for the entire wedding party, while others leave the outfitting up to each member of the wedding party. We love a mix and match wedding party, or even suiting for the truly chic! Long dresses are common for winter weddings, and even more likely if the wedding takes place in an area with cold weather.\n\nKnee-length fitted dresses and wrap dresses are popular as an alternative to full-length gowns. Sequined cocktail dresses are also festive alternative to longer dresses. \n\nIn addition to style and silhouette, there are an endless variety of fabrics to choose from, including satin, velvet and chiffon. Chiffon is a popular textile, because it offers a sheer and elegant look and looks amazing on everyone. Velvet is a winter wedding classic — it’s rich, glamorous and holiday-appropriate.\n"},{"__typename":"BlockElementSpacer24Px","title":"Spacer 24px","insertASpacer":true},{"__typename":"BlockElement3ImagesScreenWidth","blockName":"Winter Wedding Dress 2","slug":"winter-wedding-dress-2","imagesCollection":{"total":3,"skip":0,"limit":50,"items":[{"title":"1692F","description":"","contentType":"image/jpeg","fileName":"1692F.jpeg","size":380926,"url":"https://images.ctfassets.net/y49u4slmhh3t/wYknXb6PJleR5opjG2sbK/5d866b1fd7db8cce5ca73ee8988c4f93/1692F.jpeg","width":1280,"height":1919},{"title":"1707F 56567","description":"","contentType":"image/jpeg","fileName":"1707F__56567.jpg","size":371810,"url":"https://images.ctfassets.net/y49u4slmhh3t/6GY0hzXGlJ1yqSfeiESazs/2d93450faf6dd9cf087d89d81a19028e/1707F__56567.jpg","width":1280,"height":1919},{"title":"1701F b4457aecf282c643ac4e15bdb5005758","description":"","contentType":"image/jpeg","fileName":"1701F_b4457aecf282c643ac4e15bdb5005758.jpg","size":78057,"url":"https://images.ctfassets.net/y49u4slmhh3t/qBNKk6CldCtcJGx8lad3j/cda15f32c7c31c8f123895573ecf88d6/1701F_b4457aecf282c643ac4e15bdb5005758.jpg","width":800,"height":1200}]}},{"__typename":"BlockElementSpacer24Px","title":"Spacer 24px","insertASpacer":true},{"__typename":"BlockElementCopyBlock","blockName":"Winter Wedding Guest Attire ","slug":"winter-wedding-guest-attire","bodyCopy":"When it comes to wedding guest attire, guests tend to have more options regarding color and style than wedding parties, generally because brides do not expect guests to coordinate with the selected color palette. In addition to crimson and burgundy, emerald green and dark blues, other winter wedding colors popular with guests include light blue, purple, gray and black.\n\n## Informal Options: \nIn addition to dresses, jumpsuits are a versatile option for casual and semi-formal weddings. A pair of flats work well for a casual and comfortable look or accessorize with heels for a dressier option. \n\n## Formal Options:\nWhen it comes to formal wedding attire, guests still have a variety of options. White-tie-wedding clothing is considered the most formal. This means full-length evening gowns with formal jewelry, heels and a stylish clutch, and a dark tuxedo jacket or coat with tails and matching pants. \nBlack-tie wedding attire is the next step down and usually indicates an evening wedding. Floor-length gowns, elegant cocktail dresses and sophisticated pantsuits are all acceptable. \n\nThe cocktail dress code is less formal than the black-tie dress code. Instead, tea, knee-length and midi dresses, with hems halfway between the knee and ankle, are generally selected. \n\nDarker colors are considered more formal for evening weddings, and light-colored dresses are better suited for daytime weddings. Casual and tropical dress codes allow for sundresses with wedges or dressy sandals.\n\nDeciding what to wear to a wedding can be tough. When in doubt, always overdress. "}]}}]
