Wedding Inspiration: The “Traditional” Halloween Wedding
Halloween is right around the corner and I can hardly contain my excitement! First of all because I bought a totally awesome costume for my dog, secondly because we bought a house and will have trick-or-treaters this year, and last but not least because I LOVE a good theme wedding.
Now, I know you can go all traditional halloween colors, but orange is just not for me. How does a little coral and black sound instead? Gotta love a new take on an old classic, right? I think this color combo is a nice update and when you add some gold metallic hues and glitter? Well, gold and glitter make everything better in my opinion.
I’m also pretty in love with the idea of a black wedding dress (really, at any wedding, but especially at a Halloween wedding!)
As for decor? It couldn’t be easier. Forget carving pumpkins. That’s hard work. Glittery pumpkins are simple and sparkly! Clean off your pumpkin and dry it off, paint it with glue (Elmer’s works fine) and dust with glitter. The perfect DIY, non floral, cheap and easy centerpiece.
Anyone here doing a halloween wedding? Are you going classic orange and black or will you change it up? Let us know!

link for the black dress please?
Glittery pumpkins FTW!!!
You could also do something like this http://tinyurl.com/3zhmh3v, but you know, paint the faces on rather than carve them. Sneaky pumpkins!
I love this idea, but don't think I would be able to pull it off! Love that black dress!
Coral and black…nice combo! I'm not fond of orange. It looks -hideous- with my pinkish-red hair. The black dress is love for an evening gown but pink all the way for my wedding dress. I'm also stealing those glitter pumpkins, great idea!
I was a bridesmaid in a friend's Halloween wedding a few years ago. She didn't plan it to be a Hallowedding (what we started calling it), it was just the only weekend her husband could get leave from the Navy! The ceremony was a traditional church wedding, but the bridesmaids and groomsmen planned some Halloween surprises for the reception. All the bridesmaids had little costume items to put on, like cat ears and a tail, or light up pumpkin earrings. And some of the groomsmen changed into full costumes from their favorite anime show!
That dress is AMAZING – love it! What's the make and model? Maybe it comes in white…
