What color perfectly epitomizes winter for you? For us, it absolutely has to be Pantone's aptly named winter white. Other shades of white can be cold and austere, but with just a hint of warmth and slight grey undertones, winter white evokes a cozy feeling that makes us want to bundle up under a wool blanket with our sweetie and snuggle in front of the fireplace - perfect for a romantic winter wedding, don't you think? We've put together 5 winter white palettes to inspire you, because after all, in the words of Billy Idol, it's a nice day for a (winter) white wedding.

We happen to think all-white weddings are perfect for winter. It might sound a little boring, but this all-white wedding palette uses 3 different shades of white to add variety and interest to the monochromatic color scheme.

Also perfect for winter are icy blues and steely grays which happen to pair beautifully with the slightly warmer winter white without overshadowing it.

Pink isn't a color we usually associate with winter weddings, but this pale shade blends in beautifully with the wintery white and grey tones of this palette.

Earth tones are perfect for rustic winter wedding, but can feel a little drab at times. Adding lots of winter white, however, gives them a much needed pick me up and makes for a sophisticated palette.

Now, if all these muted tones just aren't your thing, this high contrast white, gold, and charcoal color scheme is the perfect way to glam up your wedding day and banish those winter doldrums for good.
