Deck the Aisle: Holiday-Inspired Wedding Décor That Still Feels Chic

Subtle metallics, evergreen garlands, and twinkle lights—done tastefully for your winter wedding.

Holiday weddings are magical, but it’s easy to cross the line from chic to cliché if you’re not careful. The key? Keep it elegant, understated, and seasonally inspired—letting natural textures and warm lighting do most of the work.

At our North Georgia venue, surrounded by towering pines, these décor elements shine brightest.

 

✨ Subtle Metallics: Shine Without the Sparkle Overload

Instead of flashy tinsel or gaudy gold, think soft metallic accents that catch the light and add warmth.

Try:

  • Rose gold or brushed brass candle holders and flatware

  • Champagne or muted gold linens with a gentle shimmer

  • Metallic-rimmed glassware and chargers for a luxe touch

 

🌿 Evergreen Garlands: Nature’s Classic Statement

Nothing says winter quite like evergreen garlands, but styling them with care keeps them modern and fresh.

Ideas to elevate your garlands:

  • Mix in delicate eucalyptus or silver brunia berries for texture and color variation

  • Weave in fairy lights or tiny white blooms to brighten dark winter days

  • Use garlands draped along ceremony arches, dining tables, or stair banisters

 

✨ Twinkle Lights: The Ultimate Warm Glow

Twinkle lights add a magical glow that feels like a warm hug—perfect for winter evenings.

Tips for tasteful twinkle light use:

  • Drape them delicately overhead or wrap around rustic wooden beams

  • Combine with candles and lanterns for layered lighting

  • Keep bulbs small and white for a soft, classic effect

Our venue’s high ceilings and outdoor patios are perfect for these cozy light displays.

 

🎄 Additional Chic Holiday Touches

  • Incorporate natural elements like pinecones, cinnamon sticks, or dried orange slices in your centerpieces

  • Use velvet ribbons in jewel tones to tie napkins or adorn bouquets

  • Add minimalist holiday signage in calligraphy for welcome signs or menus
