When it comes to the holidays, everyone has their go-to decorations. There are those who are all about fresh garlands, while some prefer cascading red ribbons, and others zero in on the perfect wreath. We fall into the last group. Not only are wreaths easy to hang on the front door, but they are as welcoming as they are beautiful. Plus, they’re the first things your guests see when they arrive for the holiday festivities. And if you ask us, the best Christmas wreaths are the ones that fully represent your personal style—whether you’re into ornaments, microlights, fresh fir branches, berries, or a combination of the four.
While there are tons of styles available—which can make choosing one for your home a challenge—we scoured the Internet for the absolute best, so you don’t have to. Scroll on and you'll see that we've included the coolest picks around like a fresh cedar wreath accented with spiral eucalyptus, air-dried pinecones, and faux berries or a shimmery option dusted with faux snow and completed with silver and gold toned ornaments. Not to worry, we’ve also considered every price point appealing to shoppers ready to splurge or save. Get ready to shop and decorate!
We had to spotlight Williams Sonoma's berry wreath which is a best-seller year after year. It's handcrafted using fresh cedar, spiral eucalyptus, air-dried pinecones, and faux berries. We don't like to pick favorites, but this one is definitely up there!
If you want to accent your front door with something that feels more pared back, this is it. Fresh noble fir, juniper, dried spruce pinecones, poppy pods, and canella berries come together on a bushy wreath finished off with a navy velvet bow.
This artificial wreath is so elegantly muted that it looks like it has an Instagram filter on it. Complete with silk eucalyptus and foam berries, it adds the perfect understated touch to any front door.
As much as we love a real, live wreath, we don't always feel like dealing with it. Enter a faux wreath that looks oh-so-real, like this West Elm one made with artificial cypress, mixed berries, and pinecones. You get all of the cheeriness and none of the mess.
We've all heard the phrase: "sometimes the simplest answer is the right one." This Crate & Barrel wreath is a perfect embodiment of that saying. Constructed of faux hemlock pine and dotted with tiny LED lights, this wreath is beautiful in its simplicity.
We love an unexpected take on a classic holiday decoration. Case in point: this faux berry wreath in a fresh shade of white. Plus, the loosely gathered branches give it a much-welcomed rustic touch. Why not go all out this year?
The most popular Christmas wreaths tend to be perfect circles with neatly shaped branches and berries, but this alternative is a celebration of the imperfect—which is why we love it. Inspired by the unsheared beauty of a winter forest, this Right Side Hand wreath is made out of fresh noble fir, pepper berries, and other seasonal botanicals. Yes, it smells amazing, in case you were wondering.
If the rest of your Christmas decorations are a bit over-the-top, you may want to consider this understated design. This artificial Wondershop option is a festive yet quiet alternative to the otherwise busy and colorful wreath we're used to seeing.
Another wispy wreath devoid of ornate decorations is this Afloral rec made with artificial Norfolk Pine. It may be fake, but it's not called "Real Touch" for nothing. The wreath looks as real as it feels!
Technically, this Pottery Barn find isn't a wreath, it's a hanger for a wreath. But it's so quirky and festive that we figured it deserves a spot on this list.
This may not be a traditional Christmas wreath, but hear us out. It is seasonal, courtesy of the pinecones and textured moss. Plus, it's so artful in its design that we thought it would be a Christmas crime to not highlight it.
For those who want to add glamour to their decor this year, allow us to introduce you to the Holiday Lane Shine Bright wreath. The gorgeous assortment of gleaming silver and gold-toned ornaments, branches, and berries is made even more festive with a dusting of faux snow.
If you're decidedly not going all out this year, opt for a quietly luxe artificial wreath with warm-toned twinkle light. Since it's pretty big, we suggest hanging it on your front door or on one of your taller walls.
What type of wreath lasts the longest?
The longest-lasting wreaths are artificial styles. However, if you want to go the authentic route, try an evergreen wreath. They can survive in just about any climate.

What makes a good Christmas wreath?
A good Christmas wreath isn't hard to come by. After all, it's all about what you find appealing. Popular wreaths, however, tend to include real or faux branches, berries, and ribbons. Some of the more glitzy options boast lights, too.
