During the fall and winter months, brides out hats, coats, hand and leg warmers, and even gloves to keep warm. Bridal gloves aren't really fashionable right now, but you can wear them outside if you want to stay warm and comfy while also adding a cozy element to your outfit. Gloves with a more sophisticated look are also available; these will not provide warmth or comfort, but they will enhance one's personal style.
If we're talking about hand warmers for weddings, I'd suggest crochet or knit styles in solid colors or patterns, basic or colorful. You can either make them yourself or get them from a boutique and customize your style. Gloves featuring lace, crochet flowers, pearls, and other embellishments are common, but they can also be simple and fingerless.
