What Season Do I Choose?

This is a common question that most couples spend time thinking about before they start planning. In our heads we all have the idea of a perfect wedding day. The four beautiful seasons in the Midwest lead to four amazing scenes for a wedding.

Why choose a winter wedding date?

It’s romantic: cold weather provides a great atmosphere to snuggle with your loved ones and not worrying about your makeup melting in the heat.

Wedding dress: there are stunning accessories and over pieces for a dress such as a fur wrap or a velvet cloak

Guests: winter tends to be less busy for many people. There is a greater likely hood more of your invited guests will be able to come.

Honeymoon: a tropical vacation will be much needed!green, blue, red, silver
