White Snowflake Vases

Now this doesn't come with a tutorial, but with some chalk markers and plain glass bottles, you can make your own snowflake vases. Get a stencil if you're worried about going freehand or use your artistic ability to draw away. Once you're done, you can use these as candle holders if the opening is wide enough or vases for your floral arrangements.

White Pinecone Decorations

If you live by a forest or craft store, then you'll be able to make these white painted pinecones easily and cheaply! This craft really is as simple as gathering pinecones, dipping them in white paint, and letting them dry. You can scatter them on the tables or bunch them in glass vases. Even do a mixture of both for a glamorous yet rustic look.

White Martini

Sometimes brides and grooms feature signature "his and hers" drinks. If you love this idea, make your signature cocktail something that's incredibly tasty while matching your white hues. This particular cocktail uses vanilla vodka, but you could use coconut, white chocolate, or peppermint flavors so long as it has a white base. It's something your guests are sure to love-especially with the crystal-like, sugar-dipped rim!

White Wedding Favors

Still stewing on what to give out as wedding favors at your big event? How about some white macarons? You can purchase these from practically any bakery or use this recipe to make them yourself! Tied up in cellophane and ribbon and delicately placed at each guest's place setting, it'll be something they can munch on right then or when they get hungry at the end of the night.

White Hot Chocolate

This dessert is white hot. That's because it's actually white hot chocolate that tastes so rich and decadent and looks amazing too. Thinking of having a novelty buffet bar? Make a white hot chocolate buffet by setting out white chocolate shavings, marshmallows, shredded coconut, and more light colored treats for your guests to sprinkle on top. You can even do the assembly for your guests and pass these out in individual glasses for dessert. We would definitely make it prettier by adding a white garnish to the glass too!

White Wine Spritzer

Another cocktail you can feature at your wedding is this white wine spritzer! With lime, pomegranate, white wine, and some non alcoholic bubbly, it's truly a beautiful cocktail. Since there is red and green in this recipe, you can even save it for next year's Christmas!

White Dessert Bites

If you do go with a white hot chocolate bar at your wedding, up the ante on the marshmallows by putting them on sticks! It's super simple to do and you'll only need to make a thin sugar glaze to help the sprinkles stick. If you aren't having a hot chocolate bar, you could still use this idea if you pair these marshmallows with hot chocolate mix and give them away as wedding favors.

White Painted Branches

If flowers are too expensive or you want something different, you need only look to your backyard for fallen twigs and small branches. With a coat of white or silver spray paint, they take on a modern, fresh, and gorgeous look. Use a bunch of these painted branches for your altar or set them out in vases on tables for fun texture. They look great with silver candy accents too.
