10 Winter Wedding Color Palettes

While spring and fall are often considered “peak wedding season,” there are plenty of great reasons to consider getting married in the winter.

For one, getting married during “off-peak” season often means lower wedding costs. If you need another reason, here in southern Texas, the weather tends to be mild with temperatures in the 50’s and 60’s during the winter.

That means you and your guests won’t be too hot or too cold, and travel plans are slightly easier.

So if you’ve decided to have a winter wedding and need some color palette inspiration, look no further. Kendall Point has got you covered!

10 Winter Wedding Colors to Inspire Your Palette

While winter isn’t exactly known for vibrant colors, that doesn’t mean your wedding needs to be cold and monochromatic. Your winter color palette doesn’t need to lean into traditional holiday tones, either (unless that’s what you want)!

Whether you’re drawn to deep, romantic shades or soft, frosty pastels, here are 10 winter wedding color palettes that will help you create a magical celebration that is anything but colorless.

Burgundy and forest green color palette

1. Burgundy & Forest Green

For a sophisticated take on traditional holiday hues, a burgundy and forest green color palette brings a regal, elevated feel to your wedding.

While it’s perfect for a December event, the richness of these colors creates a cozy, inviting atmosphere no matter the season. This palette offers the warmth of the holidays without feeling overly festive, giving you the best of both worlds.

Pair these deep, romantic shades with warm metallics like gold, bronze, or champagne to add an elegant touch and elevate the overall look of your celebration.

Emerald and champagne color palette

2. Emerald & Champagne

If you’re looking for a balance between the depth of winter and the brightness of spring, an emerald green and champagne palette is the perfect choice. Emerald green brings a vibrant pop of color without feeling too dark or heavy, while champagne adds a touch of elegance and warmth.

This combination feels fresh and sophisticated, and since green is often considered an “honorary neutral,” it pairs beautifully with just about any accent color. For a playful twist, you can even add touches of red or pink to create a palette that feels lively and unique without veering too far into spring territory.

And we speak from experience that an emerald green wedding, no matter the season, looks spectacular at Kendall Point!

Winter wedding color palette in red, blush, and gold

3. Red, Blush, & Gold

A red, blush, and gold color palette brings the perfect blend of luxury and warmth to your winter wedding. The richness of red adds a regal, bold touch, while the softness of blush keeps the palette cozy and inviting.

By leaning into the red tones, you avoid the typical red-and-green holiday look, giving your wedding a unique, elegant vibe without feeling overly festive. Adding gold to the mix elevates the entire color scheme, adding a touch of glamor and sophistication that makes any event feel special.

Whether in table settings, accents, or décor, gold beautifully enhances the warmth of this palette, creating a stunning and timeless look.

White and ice blue wedding color palette

4. White & Ice Blue

An ice blue and white color palette captures the crisp, serene beauty of winter—even if snow is rare in our part of Texas!

These cool tones create a light and airy atmosphere, offering a refreshing contrast to the darker shades often associated with the season. Ice blue reflects the clear skies and frosty charm of winter, while white adds a touch of purity and elegance to the mix. Together, they evoke the essence of winter’s calm brightness, giving your wedding a magical, wintry feel without needing a snowy backdrop.

5. Black & White

A black and white color palette is the epitome of timeless elegance. This classic combination offers a sleek, minimal look that transcends the seasons, making it perfect for a winter wedding or any time of year.

The contrast between black and white creates a bold, sophisticated aesthetic that feels both modern and refined. Whether you go for a more formal vibe or add playful touches to soften the look, black and white provides a versatile foundation that always feels chic and stylish.

Garnet, camel, and gold color palette

6. Garnet, Camel, & Gold

A garnet, camel, and gold color palette offers a warm, rustic charm that fits perfectly with the natural beauty of Texas Hill Country.

The rich, deep hue of garnet adds a touch of warmth and elegance, while camel provides a soft, neutral balance. Together, they create a cozy and inviting atmosphere, ideal for a laid-back yet refined wedding. Gold accents further elevate this palette, adding just the right amount of shine without overpowering the rustic vibe.

An extra bonus? It’s easy to find décor, invitations, and accessories in these colors, making it a practical and stylish choice for your wedding.

Navy and bronze wedding colors

7. Navy & Bronze

Navy is a surprisingly versatile color that’s often overlooked when it comes to winter weddings.

Its deep, rich tone brings a sense of sophistication and pairs beautifully with warmer accents. While navy and gold are a classic combination, pairing navy with bronze offers an unexpected twist that adds depth and warmth to the palette. The bronze brings a subtle glow, creating a cozy yet refined atmosphere that feels perfectly suited for winter.

Together, these colors create a striking, modern look that’s both elegant and unique.

Wedding color palette in gray, navy, and silver

8. Gray, Navy, and Silver

A gray, navy, and silver color palette beautifully captures the serene image of shadows on snow, bringing a subtle elegance to your winter wedding.

These three colors are essentially neutrals, allowing you to create a calm, understated foundation while leaving plenty of room for creativity. You can easily add in pops of color to personalize the look, whether you want to introduce a bold accent or keep the palette soft and monochromatic.

The mix of cool grays, deep navy, and shimmering silver adds a timeless sophistication that feels perfect for a winter celebration.

Sage green and orange wedding colors

9. Sage Green & Orange

A sage green and orange color palette offers a fresh and unexpected twist for a winter wedding. Sage green’s soft, earthy tone brings a sense of calm and serenity, while the pop of orange adds warmth and vibrancy, creating a lively contrast.

This combination feels organic and natural, perfect for couples looking to bring the beauty of the outdoors into their celebration. Together, they strike a perfect balance between rustic charm and bold elegance, making this palette a standout choice for a unique winter wedding.

Plum and dusty violet wedding color palette

10. Plum & Dusty Violet

If purple is your favorite color, but you want to keep the tone fitting for a winter wedding, plum and dusty violet are the perfect choices. Instead of leaning into the brighter orchids or soft lavenders often associated with spring, deep plum and dusty violet bring a rich, moody elegance that feels right at home during the cooler months.

These shades create a romantic and luxurious atmosphere, offering a more sophisticated take on purple. Together, they bring depth and warmth to your palette, making your winter wedding feel both inviting and timeless.
