The Ultimate Halloween Wedding Ideas

Modern Wedding Posted: October 16, 2019

Halloween inspired weddings are becoming a popular trend for their distinctive look and dramatic charm. As October approaches, we've gathered the best tricks and treats for adding some Halloween magic, without sacrificing sophistication. This certainly inspires a slightly spooky and oh-so romantic love story for the ages.

A Venue To Die For...

We love the added detail of choosing a location that may be just a little bit haunted. The grandeur of an old mansion, empty warehouse space, ancient cathedral, or magical woodland all have a hauntingly beautiful intrigue. Use dark foliage, plenty of candlelight or chandeliers to really play with the possibilities of the night. Adding divine blooms with pops of deep red or blue will transform any venue to a moody and atmospheric space.

Setting The Mood...

For your Halloween wedding, the tables will make a huge impact on the overall atmosphere of your event. A dark tablescape on exposed wood tables, using tall candlesticks dripping wax, antique goblets and plenty of brilliantly natural wildflowers will make the perfect Halloween statement and exude elegance. For a softer Halloween inspired look, use warm toned autumn leaves or flowers, small pumpkins and fall-scented candles.

Enchanted Ensemble...

Deciding on a dress for a Halloween themed wedding doesn’t mean settling for tacky or kitschy. Dark and edgy dresses are still making their way into new dress collections and are the perfect way to create that heavenly drama down the aisle. Delicate layers of tulle, antique beading, and ethereal vintage lace, or a splash of deep red will also pay homage to your theme in a modern and romantic way.

Capture The Season...

A Halloween inspired wedding opens a lot of doors to get adventurous with photography. Using masks and pumpkins as props or recreating a scene from your favourite horror movie...there really are so many ideas! Autumn is the perfect time to get outdoors and make the most of burnt yellow and red tones as a backdrop for unbeatable wedding photos.

Via Green Wedding Shoes

Eat Your Heart Out...

A dark wedding cake is the perfect twist to traditional white and is equally as romantic. Pairing a dark cake with striking blooms, lush greenery and bold textures creates a show-stopping sophistication. If an all-black cake is just a little too scary, consider incorporating it into one tier or using deep reds and dark browns.

Moody Blooms...

Dark and moody wedding bouquets are impossible to go wrong with. Cascading bouquets of burgundy roses, deep blue dahlias, and luxurious will leave you totally spellbound. Add crisp foliage, pale succulents or feathers to play with texture.

Via Revel Petals

Bridal Party...

Dressing your bridal party in all black is a surefire way to stand out in a ghost-white dress and offers a whole range of possibilities for the shape and style of dresses your party can wear. Play around with textures like lace, sequins or frills to add to that Halloween charm. If you're looking to please everyone, black is your safest bet! Or opt for an autumnal palette - the epitome of Halloween - and pick a range of dresses in burnt orange shades, paired with gorgeous curls, for a warm and seasonal feel.

A Feast For All...

Fill your tables with seasonal, festive flavours that will lend themselves to the Halloween theme without the need for pumpkin-flavoured everything. Incorporate a sense of warmth with choices like decadent caramels, sweet cinnamons, or butterscotch treats for your guests to enjoy. Indulge in the fun and serve bubbling cocktails from black-tie butlers, reminiscent of a cauldron in the classiest of ways.

Til' Death Do Us Part...

Keep the magic close to home by incorporating your Halloween inspiration into the ring boxes. These wooden coffin boxes are a hauntingly classy keepsake for the most precious items of the day, and tie into the theme spookily well.
