    I totally understand what you mean! Are you have an indoor or outdoor wedding?

    Snow + wicked....are you from MA!?! I just recently moved from living in MA forever and I miss hearing "wicked"!!!

    I love the romantic look of snow in pictures! Will you layering up for the outdoor pictures? What are you planning on wearing?!

    Going to be indoor. I don't mind bringing the outside in, but I have horrible allergies and don't want to be all drugged up on benadryl, lol.

    Yes! I moved away a little over 2 years ago and can’t get used to hearing “hecka” instead. I’ll be bundled up with a faux fur lined coat and a pair of fancy gloves, but my feet will probably end up numb!

    It could be the Californian in me and going against how common the beach is for us, but snow all the way. It's stunning in photos. I hate the actual wetness and cold of snow, but winter weddings are gorgeous. Yes we have snow in California but it's just not the same for me personally.

    Sand. I do not like being cold. I also live in the Midwest so there is plenty of snow.

    I hate the beach, but I would be worried the snow would ruin my dress and my guests would hate me if I had my ceremony outside. But after seeing all the beautiful ceremony pics of newlywed couples in a wintery forest, I'm going with snow.

    Probably snow! FH and I love fall and winter, summer isn't our favorite season. We don't prefer the heat! We live in California so we love the cold when we get it Smiley xd plus my dress wouldn't be good for a beach wedding.

    That's a tough one! both have pros and cons! i'd say Snow though, because I don't want to be hot and sweaty in my gown, and I think my love would be a sweaty mess in a black tux on a beach

    SAND! We’re covered in snow and freezing for over half of each year where I live so I’m all about getting out of here to the sand!
