ALL I WANT FOR CHRISTMAS, IS THAT DRESS…
Christmas weddings are becoming more and more popular. While peak season remains Summer in the eyes of a venue, there seems to be nothing more magical than the candle-lit, crisp evenings and gorgeously wintery Christmas weddings. So 2024 brides, it’s officially 12 months until you’re getting wed, and it’s time to start looking for a winter wedding dress that ticks all the boxes. Here are a few ideas from our luxury bridal designers at Hannah Elizabeth Bridal.
When it comes to shopping for a luxurious Christmas bridal gown, some brides like to look at long-sleeved wedding dresses that keep them a little more snug on the day itself. This is particularly needed if you’re planning on having photographs taken outdoors, which of course you’re likely to do! Long-sleeved bridal gowns are both sensible and sultry – perfect for a winter wedding look.
Another popular Christmas bridal look – sparkles! Sparkles, sparkles, sparkles. Many of our brides over the years have opted for stunning bridal gowns or bridal separates that have embellished details, as opposed to lace or floral features. An embellished bridal dress adds that extra touch of wintery wonderfulness to your day.
However, that being said, some brides also opt for modern, crisp winter bridal style – complete with a tuxedo for the groom. This look usually accompanies a crepe bridal gown which screams winter chic.
No matter your style, at Hannah Elizabeth Bridal we have a range of bridal dresses and separates guaranteed to suit your winter bridal style. Book your appointment today to find ‘The One!’ in time for your opulent winter wedding! In the meantime, check out our 5 top winter wedding looks below.
1. Genista by Alena Leena​
The gorgeous Alena Leena dresses are unique in so many ways, and we feel the Genista gown is perfect for that sparkly December wedding. Embellished from head-to-toe and with a stunning low back and subtle sweetheart neckline, this is the dream designer wedding dress for fashion-forward brides of 2024 and 2025. And of course, this winter bridal gown is complete with puff removable sleeves – the bride in this dress will certainly shine.Â
2. Tarah by Luna Novias
For a sleek crepe gown for your special day, Tarah by Luna Novias totally delivers. One of our most-loved long-sleeved wedding dresses, Tarah has a stunning boned bodice with a sheer back and statement puffed shoulders for that fashion-forward touch. Featuring luxurious buttons that follow the train of the dress and a subtle train, Tarah is a beautiful choice for your Christmas wedding or winter wedding.
3. OLIVE BY LOVE STORY LONDON
And for the brides who LOVE the crepe finish – we’d recommend the chic Olive by Love Story London, complete with fashion-forward cape. This gorgeous ‘modern bride’ dress features a high neck and sculpted ‘V’ back – the ultimate standout look for a winter wedding. The Olive Cape by Love Story London adds a further touch of glam sophistication and almost creates an angelic vision that fits beautifully with a Christmas wedding.
4. ROWIE BY JANE HILL
Finally, for the bride looking for a glamourous wedding dress for the ultimate sparkly affair, look no further than Rowie by Jane Hill. Featuring intricate beading and a deep sweetheart neckline, this dress is the epitome of romance and will certainly have jaws dropping. Just imagine those photos under the winter night sky with the flash bouncing off the embellishment!Â
At the end of the day, there is no set winter bridal gown and many bridal gowns that suit the summer weddings also suit winter weddings – you just may need to think about keeping warm in any outdoor shots. That said, our suggestions above have been popular for many wintery weddings due to having features or detail that fulfil a vision of a Christmas wedding. Whether it’s the sparkles and embellishment, the longer-sleeves or the angelic vibe of a modern cape – we hope you loved our winter wedding dress inspiration!Â
At Hannah Elizabeth Bridal, we’re proud to help the modern bride help find the luxury chic bridal gown of her dreams. Book your appointment today to start your journey to finding ‘The One’!
