While summer weddings may be the traditional choice, there’s something undeniably enchanting about a winter celebration. From twinkling candlelit moments to starry skies and crisp evening air, a winter wedding offers an elegance and intimacy that the warmer months simply can’t match. And, with The Royal Hotel as your venue, you can enjoy all the charm of the season with none of the stress.
Here are five fabulous reasons to say "I do" to a winter wedding.
Summer weddings are lovely, but with so many to attend and pack into a short season, your special day can sometimes feel like just one of many. A winter wedding, on the other hand, becomes THE event of the season, and a highlight for your family and friends. November and March are particularly perfect, as they’re far enough from the festive rush while still offering that cosy, romantic atmosphere.
Summer weddings come with one major risk: the weather. You can plan for the perfect sunshine-filled day, only to be met with unexpected showers, despite the premium price tag. And even if the sun does shine, do you really want to be dressed to the nines, stuck indoors in heavy fabrics, longing for a breeze?
With a winter wedding, the expectations are different, and in Ventnor, you’ll enjoy the benefits of its mild microclimate. Plus, The Royal Hotel is a venue for all seasons, meaning whatever the weather, your day will be spectacular.
One of the best-kept secrets of winter weddings? They’re far more cost effective. With some suppliers offering off season discounts, you’ll have more flexibility, better availability, and even the chance to go grander with your plans. Think beautiful floral arrangements, exquisite dining, and dreamy décor, all for a more budget-friendly price. Plus, why not make the most of the season and add outdoor sparklers for a magical photo moment?
A winter wedding means you’ll always have a special reason to escape for a winter getaway, whether that’s chasing the sun or embracing cosy romantic retreats. Even better? At The Royal Hotel, we offer one-night stays in the winter, so you can return year after year to celebrate your anniversary in style, indulging in fine dining and ultimate relaxation.
There’s nothing quite like the romance of a winter’s evening. Imagine exchanging vows surrounded by the soft glow of candlelight, then stepping outside to breathtaking starry skies. The season’s natural charm lends itself perfectly to an elegant, intimate celebration, where every moment feels truly magical.
If you’re dreaming of a magical, atmospheric, fairytale wedding that stands out from the crowd, a winter celebration at The Royal Hotel is the perfect choice. With our 5 star hospitality, exceptional dining, and stunning surroundings, we’ll ensure your day is as magical as the season itself.
