5 Things All Guests Love at Winter Weddings

There's nothing like a cozy winter wedding in a snow-covered locale, but if you're planning a winter wedding, there are a few extra things you may want to add to your guest list, so you can keep your guests happy, and warm, during your celebration. Whether you are hosting your wedding in a place known for its freezing temperatures, or a place with more mild weather, here are five things your guests will want to have at your winter wedding. If these don't make you want to have a winter wedding, I don't know what will! ( :

1. An Outdoor Fire Pit

If your venue allows it, having an outdoor fire pit is a great late-night pow-wow spot for your guests. They can head there with their post-reception coffee or even a final drink from the open bar while the wedding reception is winding down.

2. An Indoor Spot

Having an outdoor wedding in the winter may be something you've always dreamed of, and if so, it's important to also have an indoor alternative. Even if you have a heated, tented reception, having an indoor spot attached to it that people can go into to get warm if it's freezing or snowing out is key.

3. Hot Beverages

In addition to an open bar, it may be a good idea to have a coffee and hot chocolate bar open all night. That way guests can grab a warm beverage when they are feeling a bit too cold.

4. DIY S'Mores

If you're getting married in the winter and are looking for a fun dessert to serve, a DIY S'more Bar is always a hit. This is a great addition to a fire pit — if allowed.

5. Shawls or Blankets

An extra-added layer of comfort throughout the night is essential when keeping warm and cozy! Some guests may be colder than others, so having a pile of extra shawls and blankets for them to grab is a nice touch.
