Thread: Halloween Wedding 2008

Tweet

I have been given the honor by my wonderful man to have a halloween themed wedding....... We are planning it for Oct. 25th and the wedding and reception will be in the same room.......everyone coming in and sitting at the tables where the reception is and in full costume!! We will be dressing as vampires........thinking about for the kiss at the end of the ceremony he will bite my neck with fake blood streaming down my neck and his face. Just any ideas on anything would be greatly appreciated.......I am sooo excited!!
Thanks all can't wait to hear all your great ideas!!

Congrates and have fun
We were married at a Halloween party and had a blast

Can I photograph it, please please please

Sounds like fun, have you thought of what you are going to do with your centerpeices?? I think foam pumpkins carved would bring great lighting into the room and one person from each table could bring it home.

For our centerpieces, we did small silver buckets filled with candy corn and a small vase with orange and yellow flowers centered in it (the candy corn held the vases steady and also was a tasty snack for the table).

We had jack o lanterns lining the steps up to our reception site, and the altar area (not in a church - we got married in a historic building circa 1910) had large JoLs with flowers (vases stuck inside) and garlands of fall leaves.

We didn't go as over the top as we wanted, due to relatives throwing hissy fits, so we did the regular poofy white dress and tux for DH, but we had a very nice wedding. If we had it to do over again, we'd tell the relatives to piss off and have had the costume party/wedding that we really wanted.

That sucks Frankie's Girl, it always seems that even though the wedding is for the couple. Everyone else has to control it somehow. Do you have any photos to share?

Congratulations Mz Skull! Are you going with a certain color scheme? I'm picturing a nice dark red and black. Tall candleabras for the table centerpieces might be cool. Dried dark roses. Is the whole wedding vampire themed or any costume goes for the guests?

Congrats ! Can't wait to see some pictures !

Congratulations! That is sooo cool! Would love to have done something like that. Hmmm, hubby wants to renew our vows in a couple of years. Maybe we could do something like that.

Lucky you! I want my halloween wedding will be at Dracula's castle. And if i cant afford that than maybe the Haunted Mansion at DW. But I have a while to go to marriage...I hope.
