7 Reasons Why Winter Weddings Are Heating Up

Cold weather months are historically not high season for brides and grooms to tie the knot, but we’ll let you in on a little secret—weddings during this magical time of year are gaining in popularity thanks to the magic of winter’s shimmering beauty.

Sure, you may have to select a few different flowers to fill your bouquet or be creative with a seasonal menu for your guests, but the advantages are many. Let Normandy Farm show you seven ways to make your special day the ultimate expression of your love for each other.

1. The weather.

We’ve got all the bases for you (and your guests) covered with everything located right here—behind the walls—of this historic and stunningly restored gentleman's farm. Our classic farm ambience brings romance and allure to your experience regardless of Mother Nature’s whims. Don’t believe us? Peer into the wonder of this “blizzard wedding” held at Normandy Farm last year to get a glimpse of what your dream wedding can look like.

2. Stay over.

No worries with our newly renovated guest rooms and suites right here. Have everyone spend the night so you can relax and enjoy sharing the laughter, the memories and the love, and retire to some of the finest accommodations in the Philadelphia area.

3. Personalized choices.

Stylish ballrooms, rustic-chic silos and classic venues await your special day. Whether your wedding is a smaller, intimate affair or a larger group of family and friends, your special moments will unfold under our cathedral ceilings and in our landscaped gardens and grounds.

4. Award-winning cuisine.

Executive chefs Mtele Abubakar and Sam Nahaas are award-winning culinary artists who look forward to partnering with you to create a premier menu that will satisfy your harshest critic. Enjoy your toast to commitment with champagne, signature cocktails, craft brews and a hot toddy or two to enjoy with your personalized wedding cake.

5. Capture the love.

Your special moments are yours to keep (and share) with those you love as “photographer of the stars” Tyler Boye and his expert team capture the fantasy and the wonder of love on your day. He’s familiar with the locale and knows all the romantic nooks so your photos and videos will bring your fantasy day back to life again and again.

6. Throw the bouquet.

It's all in the details, and onsite florist and designers Willow & Thistle can create coordinated arrangements to send your wedding experience over the top. Let our professionals guide you through the sights and aromas of the perfect bouquet.

7. Save your cash.

Use the money you save this time of year for lying on a sun-drenched beach, cozying up to a roaring fire or snuggling together in bed until noon on your honeymoon. “With the weather cooperating so far this year, many of our couples are biting at the lower pricing of our value packages,” explains Brandi Eaton, Sales Operations Manager, “and the fact that we have everything under one roof makes it easy to create the perfect wedding that's beautiful, personal and affordable.”
