Christmas-Themed Wedding at Gaylord National Resort

Christmas-Themed Wedding at Gaylord National Resort
Bridesmaids carried fur muffs instead of floral bouquets for Christmas-themed wedding

Francesca and James, known for their annual tradition of attending the ICE! show, decided to infuse their December wedding with the same festive spirit. The enchanting Gaylord National Resort was the perfect choice for their Christmas-themed wedding, already adorned in holiday splendor. Opting for a “Winter Wonderland” motif, the couple set the stage for a magical celebration.

Their ceremony unfolded in the resort’s atrium, radiating warmth and love. Elegant winter garland was swagged along the front of the gazebo, framing the couple’s nuptials. Francesca’s bouquet was the perfect blend of holiday red, a touch of bling, and classic love as red roses were accented with crystals. In lieu of bouquets, the bridesmaids carried fur muffs, and the flower girl held an adorable pomander ball of silver pine cones suspended from a red ribbon.

The reception followed, bathed in a rich red glow and adorned with elegant crystal chandeliers. Delicate vases brimming with glistening ornaments, coupled with silver table linens, contributed to the merry atmosphere without overwhelming the senses. As tokens of appreciation, mason jar mugs filled with the fixings for peppermint hot cocoa awaited each guest. Even the cake embraced the theme with intricate snowflake patterns and accents of vibrant red ribbon. The pièce de résistance? The endearing Santa-themed taper candles that graced the unity candle ceremony, exuding the true essence of Christmas.

Francesca and James’ Christmas-themed wedding at the Gaylord National Resort was a testament to their shared love for the holiday season. With every carefully chosen detail, they transported their guests to a winter wonderland of joy and celebration, creating memories that will forever be cherished.

Victorian elegance met modern romance at the Fairmont. ✨ Centerpieces have the power to set the tone for an entire ballroom. Half the guest tables featured tall silver candelabras topped with textured designs of hydrangea, roses, dahlias, and lisianthus in shades of pink and burgundy. More than accents, the elevated designs added height, repetition, and cohesion throughout the room. The balance of tables held silver footed bowls brimming with the same rich palette, styled in a looser, organic shape. Together, the mix of height, texture, and candlelight created a romantic atmosphere that was timeless and unforgettable — the kind of detail that takes a wedding from beautiful to truly show-stopping. 🌸✨

Diane & Michael’s autumn wedding at the Westin Georgetown redefined fall florals. 💙 Instead of the traditional rust and burgundy hues, their palette celebrated cooler tones: light blue hydrangea, lavender stock, and blue and lavender delphinium layered with roses and spray roses, even whimsical purple globe allium. Lush greenery framed the look, adding depth and texture. The result was elegant and unexpected — a design that felt fresh, refined, and utterly romantic in every detail. ✨
