Holiday Wedding Inspiration - The Cottages By The Bay

Holiday Wedding Inspiration ~ Cottages by the Bay

October was a busy month at the Bay House and the Cottages by the Bay, and now we enter the holiday season! During these cooler months, we fall in love with the beauty of holiday weddings. This is the perfect time of year for friends and family to gather, especially for a celebration of marriage. With the endless options of decadent foods, rich fabrics, and magic in the air, it’s easy to find holiday wedding inspiration.

The decor for a holiday wedding allows you to play to as much of the holiday cheer as you’d like. Perhaps, you opt for traditional garland, ornaments and more, or instead you use heavy fabrics and royal colors. Remember, it’s important not to feel trapped by the theme. For example, if you have always dreamed of a particular floral arrangement or table setting, make it work. In our opinion, we love the sparkling silver and evergreen touches that set the tone for a winter wonderland. Our favorite decor incorporates aspects of the holidays while still highlighting the importance of your wedding day. Also, don’t get us started on seasonal foods! The endless array of rich dishes, soups, warm drinks and more are sure to entice even the pickiest of guests.

The Most Wonderful Time of Year

While they’re known to be the most wonderful time of year, the holidays are also the busiest. Friends, family and co-workers get scheduled far in advance for a variety of gatherings. It’s important to let your guests know your wedding date as soon as possible. This will allow them time to plan travel, find accommodations and more. For a holiday wedding at the Bay House, we recommend the Cottages by the Bay for accommodations. The Cottages by the Bay Retreat is comprised of seven charming Cottages just across from the Destin wedding venue. You can even stay longer and enjoy gathering with friends and family after the wedding.
