Tutu Ojo from Prime Violet Events tells us her top tips for creating a festive-themed wedding.
“Are you one of the lucky ones getting to celebrate your love at Christmas? Festive weddings are becoming more popular, and there are lots of ways you can make your day extra magical through your décor. Try using wreaths at the venue entrance to create a warm welcome!
"Incorporate the festive season by decorating your venue with holly, pinecones and Christmas-inspired greenery.
"Don’t forget about the food and drink. Eggnog, peppermint and cranberry are perfect for festive weddings, and you could even have your canapés shaped like bows and trees.
"Christmas stockings could also double up as place cards and wedding favours.
"Create a photo op area with a sparkling backdrop and seasonal props.
" “Did you know that hosting an event around Christmas can mean you spend less on décor, especially if your venue is known to style it out for the season? It’s always helpful to know what decorations they will be using, how they’ll look, and where they’ll be, so they don’t clash with your overall theme and vision of the day. Similarly, don’t assume your venue will have any decorations because some may leave it as a blank canvas for you to kit out, so it’s always good to double- check."
