Pink Christmas Wedding at The Greenbrier

Pink Christmas Wedding at The Greenbrier | Alex + Cole

A pink-themed Christmas wedding at The Greenbrier is already a dream concept—but Alex and Cole turned it into a full, immersive holiday experience: dramatic, elegant, joyful, and unforgettable from the first note of caroling to the final sparkle of candlelight.

Set in December at the iconic Greenbrier Resort, their celebration blended black-tie style, whimsical Christmas details, and a handcrafted creative vision that felt completely personal—while still being undeniably luxe.

Black-Tie Arrival With Christmas Carolers

Guests arrived dressed in classic black, a bold, timeless choice that made every soft pink detail pop throughout the day. As they entered, carolers greeted them, instantly setting the tone: festive, elevated, and straight out of a holiday film.

A Candlelit Chapel Filled With Trees and White Lights

Inside the chapel, local florist and event designers Gillespies created a scene that felt both grand and intimate. The space was filled with Christmas trees and white lights, glowing softly and framing the ceremony with a magical winter warmth.

Then the lights dimmed, candles flickered, and Holy Night was sung by candlelight—one of those quiet, breathtaking moments that stops time.

A Handmade, Pink Christmas Wedding Design (That Still Felt Luxury)

Alex—well known as a TikTok sensation—shared her journey of creating many wedding details by hand, and seeing them come to life at The Greenbrier was a true wow moment. This wasn’t “DIY”—it was handcrafted luxury, layered with intention.

Reception design highlights included:

• Homemade gingerbread houses placed on each table

• Pink ornaments hanging from crystal chandeliers, catching the light as guests entered

• Six-foot Nutcrackers standing beside each reception door like holiday sentries

Every detail felt cohesive, cinematic, and full of personality—while still perfectly aligned with a high-end Greenbrier wedding.

Cocktail Hour With Santa Mingling (Yes—In Pink)

During cocktail hour, guests were treated to a scene no one will forget: Santa—dressed in pink—mingling throughout the reception space, stopping for photos, chatting with guests, and adding a playful, festive spark to the celebration. It was whimsical in the best way—unexpected, joyful, and completely on brand for this pink Christmas wedding.

A Horse-Drawn Carriage Exit With Santa

As if the ceremony and design weren’t already iconic enough, Alex and Cole left the chapel in the most storybook way possible—alongside Santa in a horse-drawn carriage. Against the glow of The Greenbrier’s holiday décor, it felt like a fairytale send-off: classic, romantic, and unmistakably Christmas.

The Team Behind the Magic

A wedding this detailed doesn’t happen without a calm, expert team ensuring every moment flows seamlessly. Huge credit goes to Laura Richter, The Greenbrier wedding planner, and her incredible team for executing this celebration with such ease and professionalism. From guest experience to timing to transitions, everything felt effortless—allowing Alex and Cole (and everyone attending) to be fully present and enjoy the magic.

Featured in People Magazine + A Return to The Greenbrier

This Greenbrier Christmas wedding became such a sensation it was later featured in People Magazine, capturing attention far beyond the resort. And in a perfect full-circle moment, Alex and Cole returned in 2025 for their anniversary, revisiting the place where their holiday fairytale began.
