Real Weddings: A Spooktacularly Elegant Halloween Wedding
When a couple with a sense of humor, a passion for Halloween and a love for Gothic details decides to get hitched, you get a Spooktacularly Elegant Halloween wedding! Matt and Jess Haze hosted an offbeat Halloween costume party wedding filled with numerous Fall, Halloween and Goth details that were loved by all. Here is a peek into this fabulous wedding.
Exchanging Vows
Jess and Matt exchanged vows on a superbly decorated stage lit with Jack-O-Lanterns and a wedding arch covered with Halloween lights. The yellow-orange lights cast a lovely, mysterious glow on the couple and made the Halloween decorations look even more pretty.
The ceremony was conducted by the couple’s friend Ryan, who was dressed as a zombie priest, complete with an inverted cross!
The highlight of the wedding decorations wad the unity candle! The creative couple merged the traditional unity candle with the Halloween classic – Jack-O-Lantern by placing the orange candle inside a carved pumpkin.
The Halloween Bride
The Bride chose to fore-go the white and opt for the truly Halloween color – Black. Jess looked ravishing in this strapless black wedding gown that showed off her tattoos beautifully. Enhancing her look was a black birdcage veil, black ear studs and pink dyed hair.
The dark Gothic look showed through beautifully in her makeup with dark red lips and prominent eye makeup.
The bride’s bouquet was a bunch of beautiful, dark red roses that added the contrast of Red to the Black colors elsewhere making this a perfectly Gothic Red and Black wedding color scheme. The red roses rested on a black lace collar.
The Halloween Groom
The groom awed in a sleek Mr. Dracula style with Gothic rings and a red rose boutonniere.
…and a Cake Topper that Matches!
What came first – the cake topper or the dress? Keep guessing! The cake topper was an exact match of the couple’s wedding day look down to the pink head and the red roses of the bridal bouquet.
And here’s the gorgeous cake with chocolate dripping on each layer.
Halloween Wedding Guests
The guests at this Halloween party paid a huge part in making the Goth theme a success. Everyone was sporty enough to turn up in Halloween costumes and had a blast posing with the Halloween photo props provided by their hosts.
