Its October now, so I think it is OK that we are finally talking about winter weddings and giving you some inspiration for those chilly months when having a wedding in the Washington DC area. Today’s featured fabulous fashion turned wedding inspiration from Elizabeth Duncan Events is ideal for a winter wedding. Just because it is cold, doesn’t mean it needs to be dull! The runway-to-table wedding design was created with the inspiration of the chic sophisticated ice blue runway dress (or wedding dress!) by bridal and ready-to-wear designer, Carolina Herrera. We love the nod to the gown with a something blue sash around the bride’s dress and for winter weddings, who doesn’t love a pine cone and antler-clad dinner table!? Even the bride’s winter bolero oozes with fashion elegance and of course, pays tribute to Mrs. Herrera and this stunning gown!

From Elizabeth: One of the cool colors of the season is ice blue. We combined ice blue with woodland wedding decor details to create a dreamlike atmosphere ideal for a stunning winter wonderland wedding.
