Decoration ideas

  • Let the venue do the heavy lifting — architecture and landscape are the decor
  • Local and regional blooms that complement the setting naturally
  • Al-fresco long tables styled simply with candles and trailing greenery
  • Ambient lighting: string lights, lanterns, or fire features at dusk
  • Minimal structural decor — focus spend on florals and candles
  • Local fabric, pottery, or craft as meaningful cultural detail

Questions to ask your vendor

What to ask before you book

  1. 1.Do you have a vetted local vendor network at this destination, or will you be flying in your full team?
  2. 2.What permits or legal requirements apply to a ceremony at this specific location — and who handles coordinating them?
  3. 3.How do you manage guest logistics — welcome bags, ground transport, accommodation blocks — for international travelers?
  4. 4.Can you coordinate a remote tasting with the local caterer before we commit, or will we need to rely on their proposed menus?
  5. 5.What's your contingency if key décor items don't arrive on time due to customs, shipping, or logistics delays?

Color palette

sage palette

Florals

  • Eucalyptus and olive branches
  • Sage-toned succulents and airplants
  • White blooms against deep sage foliage
  • Dried sage and herb bundles

Decor & linens

  • Sage green velvet linens
  • Terracotta or clay vessels
  • Natural linen with sage runners
  • Brass or warm gold hardware
Sage is a natural neutral — it pairs with terracotta, blush, champagne, cream, and warm white. Lean into the earthy, organic tones.

Season planning

winter wedding tips

  • Lean into the season: candles, fire features, velvet, and warm textures create unmatched winter ambiance
  • Winter venues are often more available and more affordable — leverage this for upgrades elsewhere
  • Guests appreciate covered walkways or indoor ceremony and reception spaces in colder climates
  • Shorter daylight hours mean portraits need to happen early — plan a first look before the ceremony
Golden hourGolden hour in winter can arrive as early as 3–4pm — plan your ceremony to end by 3pm for outdoor portrait light.

Things to consider

  • ·Confirm weather contingency plans with all vendors well in advance
  • ·Travel logistics: allow extra time for guests traveling in winter conditions
  • ·Heaters, fire pits, and warm cocktails make outdoor winter elements magical rather than uncomfortable
