When planning a winter wedding, you have the opportunity to create an event like no other. From photos on a snowy path through the woods, to greeting your guests in front of roaring fire – the warmth of the season translates into an intimate and unique celebration.

One of the most elegant color schemes for this time of year is ivory and gray. A classic palette with a vintage flair, bouquets of blooms with an air-brushed gray tint will make the flowers look magically frosted. To decorate the venue, gray shimmering linens can shine in candlelight; use a single ivory rose in bloom next to a charcoal written place card for a simplistic, sophisticated touch. For dessert, the hot trends in cake is an all ivory ; adorn with eucalyptus leaves to bring in the gray.

There are so many ways to create a winter wonderland in ivory and gray. Try some of these unique tips to bring your wintry vision to life:

• Pewter goblets and flatware
• Suspended strings of icicle lights
• Large pillar candles embossed with gray and silver snowflakes
• Clear vases filled with “ice cubes”
• Winter branches spray painted gray and wrapped in white lights

For the perfect winter night cap, serve up mugs of hot chocolate; then send your guests home with a single white chocolate snowflake in a gray gauze drawstring bag.
