Snow Ball

After visiting the East Coast this Christmas, I really appreciate the beautiful blanket of snow that covers just about every inch of Boston at this time of year!  Living in San Diego, the closest thing we have to snow are the icicle Christmas lights that people hang up every year...

Waking up in the morning to find a coat of fresh powder is completely inspiring, and I wish I could throw a winter-white wedding!

And now is a great time to pick up leftover Christmas/New Year’s decorations that fit your snow theme!  And fun-shaped ornaments can be a great decoration that isn’t too Christmas-y.

Pick up these tear drop ornaments at Oriental Trading

Here are a few things that you should pick up now for your winter white wedding now:

1. Christmas Lights
2. White/Silver/Gold Ribbon
3. White Tissue Paper
4. Fake Snow, in both Can and Cotton form
5. Glitter
6. Cocktail Dress for your Reception
7. Ornaments

TIP: Spray paint twigs white for a beautiful ethereal centerpiece.  Not only does it cut costs, but it is also a great way to bring the outdoors inside to add to your winter wonderland theme!
