Due to the current financial climate, more and more couples are planning winter weddings – this can be a significantly cheaper option. The summer season is peak time for wedding ceremonies, and if you plan to marry in Britain the weather can be very unpredictable.Beat the credit crunch and plan a winter wedding, what could be more romantic than getting married against a backdrop of snow-capped mountains, followed by a luxury drinks reception around a warm log fire? Switzerland, Germany, France, Italy and Iceland make excellent wedding locations in winter – as they are destinations that not only encompass a magical atmosphere but also places that are guaranteed to leave you with stunning memories.
If the thought of a snowy winter wedding leaves you with a chill then don’t despair – you can still get married in winter and enjoy hot weather. Set you sights on exotic destinations such as the Maldives, Mauritius, Sri Lanka, Thailand and India. All offer spectacular locations and sizzling temperatures.
So, if your loved one has asked for your hand in marriage, instead of opting for a summer wedding, consider the benefits of a winter ceremony – it is likely to be cheaper and it will give your guests something to look forward to during the long winter months.
