Thread: Haunted Wedding Plans

Tweet

I am helping plan a halloween wedding and don't know where to start. I've participated in a few normal, white, dreamy weddings. So I know the basics, but a halloween theme is way out of my league. I am grateful that your forum files have photos (albeit terrifying ones) to give me an idea of where to begin.
If anyone has had a halloween wedding, please dish...

Do a search for wedding (see the search button in the upper right) and you should get tons of ideas!

I also follow a blog http://creepycupcakes.blogspot.com/ and she just had a fantastic and beautiful Halloween wedding last year and has many great ideas - most are cost effective and easy to make yourself.

It's a lovely day to get married on! (notice my siggy?)

If you also google "halloween wedding" there are tons of links. But, if you look specifically at google images with that search, you'll see some great stuff. Really some amazing things. I especially like the halloween wedding cakes. They have some really cool ones pictured there. Here are a couple of my favorite.

ohhh I forgot about the cool things you can do with cakes!

Here's a great link for gorgeous Halloween themed cakes:

JahRah!! those cakes are just awwwww!!!! I love it. The 3rd one is my favorite and I need to show Spookyone and tell her that is what she should of had for her wedding. considering she got married a few months ago.

Think about it... what can you CAN YOU USE?? Anything and everything that has to do with Halloween. Unless the wedding is Halloween theme wise theme then I am sure you can break it down to certain Halloween theme base on the wedding.

Main thing.....
spooktacular cake
lights ALOTS OF LIGHTS
black wedding gown.
and you can have the grooms men, the bride maid, best man and the maid of horror to dress up too. The list is endless.

My cuz wanted a Halloween wedding but HIS Parents were strange about that stuff.

My wife & I had a Halloween-themed wedding. I have some pics here on my profile. And I second Frankie's Girl's suggestion of doing a search for 'wedding' here. You'll find a bunch of posts I did & a bunch from others who've done a Halloween wedding.

Thanks everyone! I don't know much about forums, so I didn't think about the search menu - great ideas and advice, and the pictures are spectacular! Blue

I was married on Halloween (almost 3 years ago now ....wow where does the time go?) My husband went as Jack Skellington and I went as Sally. Our guests all came in costume and the place was completely done in Halloween decor (we got married at my home). I made all of the food and did all the decorations myself, and it was wonderful and tons of fun. *** I've been married too many times in the past but this is the last one and it was the best wedding of them all***. I carried a bouquet I made myself full of fall flowers, I had a bloody garter belt, we had a normal wedding ceremony, but we also did a hand fasting type of ceremony as well during the event where our hands were twined togeather with several fall colored ribbons. Our cake had jack and sally figurines on top, and our lighting was jack-o-lantern light strings, and paper lanters colored and halloween themed. It was amazing and I loved every single minute of it. If you have any questions or need any help feel free to send me a message. Hope you're enjoying the forum.
