Pillows are a fun way to accessorize your wedding and a place you can make it personal. Plus you can always use them to decorate your new home after the party is over.

Your love story on a pillow!

Of course being in the South, we LOVE our monograms!

How about one to commemorate the honeymoon?

Our only problem is we can’t choose which pillows we want! There are too many good ones!

This past week Asheville got a few inches of snow. People were complaining about the cold, the roads (I admit I did too!) and winter in general but as I watched the snow fall, mesmerized by it’s gentle drifting from above, I thought about how pretty a snowy winter wedding would be. The soft, pillowy snow seems a perfect fit for a lovely wedding. It makes everything look so pure and pristine. And you can get some killer images in the snow!

Or how fun would a ski lift departure be? Maybe even a newlywed ski down the mountain!

An old truck is the perfect setting for pictures or your departure. We love the wreath on the front!

Then you have a whole new wardrobe to choose from. Wraps, cardigans, scarves and shawls to accessorize you and your maids dresses. Then there are the shoes! Furry snow boots or golashes are musts to keep those footsies warm and toasty. Tights can also add a fun element to the dresses.

Vintage ski’s as your guestbook pays homage to fun in the snow.

Snowflake ornaments can serve as escort cards or favors for your guests. We even have a glam version or a rustic tree slice if that’s more your style.

And the day after how fun would a snow trash the dress session be! Snow angels anyone?

No wedding would be complete without the champagne! Keep it cold on the snow!

What is more touching than the bride and groom’s first dance? It is such a sweet moment to see the new couple dancing cheek to cheek. We still get teary-eyed seeing our couples dancing their first dance! We have seen a slew of songs used, from oldies but goodies to the latest and greatest. Sometimes this can be a difficult process for the couple to actually choose what they are going to dance to. Our advice, choose a song that means something to you, not to anyone else. It should be your song! Aspen Wedding Guide has a really great top 10 1st dance songs to help you if you need a little inspiration.

Now we know not everyone is into the traditional sappy first dance and we know there have been a ton of choreographed first dances but let’s face it, guests love it! A choreographed 1st dance always gets the crowd going and makes for quite the memorable moment. We have been loving this Dirty Dancing recreation! I keep imagining how cool this would be at Lake Lure (one of the filming locations for the Dirty Dancing movie). Check out this footwork!

If you’ve been inspired by that rendition as much as we have, then you’re probably thinking you wish you knew someone who could help you achieve that level of awesomeness. StudioWed Asheville has just the thing for you, I Do Dances! Kathleen, of I Do Dances, has had the pleasure of choreographing some amazing 1st dances and she’s ready for some more. Get in touch with I Do Dances to start choreographing (or just learning some basics) for your 1st dance.
