HALLOWEEN WEDDING THEME
If you are having your wedding in the month of October, you may wish to go for a more spooky kind of theme for it. While witches and ghosts may not be your thing, you can still get creative with out-of-the-box ideas and achieve a stylish and elegant finish. There are so many ways in which you can put together your Halloween themed wedding and use a colourful palette rather than sticking to just white. From table settings, cocktails, makeup and cakes, below is a list we have curated for some inspiration:
Purple and black table setting
Black and purple are colours that you would associate with Halloween and so will look timeless, interesting and unique in your pictures in the years to come.
HALLOWEEN WEDDING BOUQUET
Going for darker coloured flowers for your bouquet does not mean you are sacrificing elegance and style. They fit with the time of the year and tie in the rest of the styling of your wedding.
PUMPKINS
If you definitely do not want to give up on the white theme, you can always paint a few pumpkins white and use them around your venue to complete your decor. White pumpkins still make you think of Halloween, they are stylish and look great with a little greenery and candles set next to them and around them.
SPOOKY COCKTAILS
You can’t have a Halloween themed wedding and not have a spooky cocktail to go with it! From orange, black or purple cocktails, there are many options you can choose from that will make your guests feel just the right amount of spookiness you want to create.
BLACK WEDDING CAKE
If you would prefer to keep most of your decor light but still want to incorporate a little bit of a dark colour, why not opt for a black cake? You can decorate it with orange and purple flowers to brighten it up a little. Alternatively, you can go for an orange, purple or dark green cake if you are not a fan of a black cake.
DARK WEDDING DRESS
Looking for something different to the classic white or ivory for your wedding dress? Why not try a dark green or black dress? It can still look incredibly elegant and fit in perfectly with the theme of your special day.
HALLOWEEN MAKEUP
Not that kind of Halloween makeup! We are talking about choosing a darker lipstick or a darker eyeshadow to tie in with the theme you are looking to achieve. Finish it off with black or dark red/burgundy nails and you will have nailed the perfect Halloween wedding look!
SMOKE BOMBS
How epic would your wedding pictures look with orange, black or green smoke bombs? Make sure you speak to your photographer first, though, to ensure you use them safely.
WEDDING BANDS IN A COFFIN
Entrusting someone with the wedding bands is a big thing and so putting them in a box that no-one can miss could be very helpful; this coffin-shaped box is definitely a unique option for your rings and will surely not go unnoticed.
ORANGE BRIDESMAID DRESSES
You don’t necessarily need to go dark with everything when it comes to your wedding. Orange bridesmaid dresses fit perfectly with the Halloween theme and can enhance your dress colour or tie in with other decorations at your wedding. Simply pick warm tones for the wedding decor as a whole and add a few touches and hints of darker decor scattered around so it still feels like a Halloween wedding.
