It’s that time of the year again! It’s October, and we’re getting closer to Halloween. So celebrate with a spooky-themed wedding! Here are some ideas from our experts on what you can do for your florist, decorator, cake baker, photographer, videographer, and more.
Forget the old cliche of white dresses and cakes with pink frosting; we’re talking about a spooky wedding! This year’s hottest trend is taking your favorite horror movie and turning it into an event. You can have anything from a zombie prom to a haunted cocktail hour. We’ve gathered some inspiration for anyone looking to make their day extra creepy or even throw an all-night party where you don’t want your guests to leave.
Planning a wedding can be one of the most stressful, time-consuming tasks that couples undertake. It is not uncommon for people to go into debt to make their day perfect and end up with a mountain of bills on top of an already financially strained relationship. However, with so many things going wrong in the world today – from natural disasters to school shootings – it’s important to have some fun while planning your nuptials! In this blog post, we’ll explore how you can add some spooky elements to your wedding without having nightmares about costs.
Weddings are expensive, but it doesn’t have to break the bank! Check out these four easy Halloween wedding ideas that will make your big day spooky and fun.
1) Hire a witch or wizard for entertainment (some dress up as them too!)
2) Use black tablecloths instead of white cloths for dinner tables
3) Serve food on black plates rather than traditional ones like white or silverware- some people might think that’s gross, it’s not if you’re doing this theme right!
4) Get creative with decorations by using items people associate with witches and wizards: skulls, bats, spiders, skeletons, etc. You can also use things like candy corn or spider webs for table decor.
There are so many great ideas out there for how you can take your love of Halloween and turn it into something special for all of your friends, family, partners in crime (for life) who will be joining in on this most important celebration with you.
