Halloween Wedding Theme
Location
Forest, castle that is rumoured to be haunted. Have the
wedding at night. That way you can party until dawn, plus it is
more spookier.
Decor
Black and lots of it. Spiders, ghosts, bats hanging from the ceiling
and walls. (I once did a Halloween party for my kids. Covered the
ceiling and walls with black bin liners. It takes a long time and a
lot of bags but it is worth the effort and it looks impressive) Have
the room lit with candles only and an opened flame fire. Make place
mats in the design of the ghosts, bats, pumpkins, etc.. Put candles
in pumpkins for the table decorations. If you choose a forest as
your location you want need any decorations just keep a fire
burning.
Invites
Make cards in the shape of bats, ghosts etc.. Check out our e-crds
and e-mail your invitations.
Brides attire
Go with a Mortisha style dress. Tight bodice, long flowing,
jagged edge skirt, long sleeved. Or you could go with a black lace,
see through bodice with a long flowing skirt. A black cape with a
red lining. If you have black hair have it straightened. If you
don't have black hair wear a long, straight black wig. For the make
up. Face white, black eye liner and black eye shadow for eyes. Black
or red lipstick. If you have long nails paint them black if you
don't wear false ones and paint them black. Ask the bridesmaids to
wear red velvet dresses with a tight bodice and a semi flowing
skirt.
Grooms attire
A black or dark green vintage tux suit with tails. A white or
red frilled shirt. Face white, a bit of eye liner and black lips.
Ask guests to wear black and dress to match the Halloween theme.
Flowers
Red roses are a must.
Cake
Have the cake made like a pumpkin instead of tiers. Or if you
want a tier cake have spiders dangling over the sides.
Favours
Make a spooky goodie bag with spiders, (not real of course)
candles and novelty Halloween torches. |
