Woo - it's getting colder, closer to Winter!

I know a lot of ladies looking forward to their summer weddings won't be half as excited as myself, but I am so excited it is getting colder and darker now. We're easing in to the autumn, and then it will be winter!!!!!! I am so excited! I can't wait to have xmas as Mr & Mrs!!

Any wintery inspirations of what to wear to keep me warm for any outdoor pics I manage to get? I don't want a long cape/cloak as it would cover the detailing down the back of my dress, but it is going to be chilly My dress is white with black details and our flowers are red so can use any of those colours really.

Do you ever 'smell the snow coming?'  maybe its just me but when its around november time I can smell snow in the air.....lol.

I'm sure i wont be the first one to say this but a fur bolero is always the suggestion made for colder days......maybe even a black one, just to be different.

Teehee,  I can also smell when snow is coming!!  How weird!

See, I always used to see it as smelling the cold night air... even if it was during the day. But I know what you mean

I'm not the biggest fan of furry things, but I was thinking of maybe some fur cuffs on a jacket or something.

ooooo get a velvet one (bolero or similar) made up with furry cuffs!!!!!!!!!  use upholsterers velvet though as its thicker.

Mums offered to make me a long velvet jacket and told me to buy upholsterers velvet....... do you know any dress makers??

I love the Winter!

I got married in Oct the first time & it was a fab day & then the 2nd time I wanted a Winter Cold & Frosty (possibly snowy) wedding & guess what?? The sun was shining & it was mild!!

not a bad idea - I don't know any dress makers, but my nan is a whizz in making things. I shall ponder that idea.

hehe, well done. I was doing similar but putting too much information in so my searches were coming up with zilch!

That is a fab idea, you could have it in red velvet with black cuffs or vice versa, also will double up as a lovely wintery going out jacket!

I am also another one who can most definately smell snow in the air, love winter.

You could wear some Uggs or similar under your dress for outdoors pics, you get some really funky colours.

I am also very excited about the winter coming!! I love love love this time of year- Hen Weekend, Halloween, Fireworks, Christmas, Wedding- Perfect

We are having an xmas wedding and i got all little-girl-stupid-and-giggly when i saw xmas cards in the shops this week lol. I adore this time of year - hence the wedding in winter! I am thinking of shrugs/boleros etc. There are some lovely ones here www.wraporshrug.co.uk but they can be a bit pricey. I love the satin one with the fur cuffs. Just tring to justify spending the money on it!!!

Hehe - KJ, I've already bought some xmas cards! Going to use them as place names at the tables.

Glad all you other wintery brides are getting the winter-fever too!

KJ - they are lovely shrugs, but do you think that will be enough for an outdoor winter pic??

I have to wait until next year for my first xmas as a mrs but this year is our first year in a house and our first christmas dinner i can make :) have you thought of a little shawl just to keep the chill off
