Selecting a wedding theme can make planning easier as it gives a starting point for everything from wedding invitations to wedding reception ideas. Engagement parties and wedding showers, couple tends to be more formal or casual affairs, but not during the wedding reception. It must be something formal but an enjoyable and memorable one. Something the wedding guests will have to talk about. Let us talk about a dream winter wedding.

Initially, one criterion of wedding ideas is the setting. It must suit the mood perfectly. The furnishings are woods and steel and the walls are bricks. The overall feeling is very comfy and somehow inviting. A fireplace will perfectly good. The table setting and the centerpiece are bouquet of calla lilies, lavenders and allure roses. Ice blue organza table cloths and snowflake-etched table candles added a playful elegance to the table settings. A line of crystal candlesticks on the steel mantles reflected the metal and cast a warm glow on the brick walls.

Secondly is the flavor. Chocolates are common for a wedding party, the selection here is another exciting reception ideas. A white box of all-white chocolates wrapped in blue satin ribbon gives the wedding guests a reminder of how sweet winter can be.

The Food. Winter weddings lends to relaxed conversation, hearty meals and robust of different wines. The menu includes something ‘country’ ingredients, starting with goat cheese mousse with olives. The main dish, a supreme of pheasant in delectable morel sauce, accompanied with miniature pumpkin stuffed with whole baby vegetables. Served with hearty red wine, the crusty warm French bread and an arugula salad with mustard vinaigrette will be deliciously fine. The grand finale for this wedding reception is an over-the-top dessert buffet of chocolate fondue with dried fruits and nuts, apples and pears, tarts and snowflakes cookies. And for the beverages, guests will prefer hot chocolate and Irish coffee.

One of the most important ideas in a wedding reception is the cake. The idea of one three-tier cake, encircled with chocolate pinecones and icing pine needles. An ornate ribbon of white chocolate curls over the top in lieu of the traditional topper will be delectable. Miniature glittering snow banks of icing placed at intervals along the edges of each tier lend depth to this fantasy confection. Note: before the caterer sends the guests to the buffet table, be sure the newly wed already cut the wedding cake.

What is a wedding reception without music? The newlyweds can hire a pianist and a violinist for soothing and relaxing music. They can play while the guests are entering the reception area and/or are having their sumptuous lunch/dinner. If the guests will like to dance, they will to the good music. For personal and special touches, the guests may want to involve themselves in the wedding reception, such as allowing one of the guests for a quickly toasts, or having the photographer capture a photo or two of each guest with the newlyweds.

One of the major love secrets of a couple is sharing their dreams for their wedding, unique and yet simple wedding reception ideas and their future life plans.
