Halloween Wedding Inspiration For a Spooky Big Day

Who needs a church for a wedding ceremony when you could use a graveyard?

Halloween-themed wedding invites don't have to be cheesy; go with a vintage-looking letterpress to set a classy tone.

It's all about location, location, location. And a New Orleans manor that looks eerily similar to Disneyland's Haunted Mansion is just the ticket!

A first dance wouldn't be complete without a little "Thriller" thrown in!

You can still dress traditionally for the ceremony, but let loose for the reception by having everyone change into costumes!

If you're going to do a day-after, trash the dress shoot, go big or go home with face paint and a creepy cemetery locale.

An Oct. 31 wedding doesn't have to be dark, black, and somber to have the holiday's essence. Switch things up by using white predominately with pops of orange and black. The effect is elegant and chic.

Now this is how you do a Dia de los Muertos wedding: skeleton face paint, black leather, and an ornate cathedral. Not for the faint of heart!

If you aren't up for the deathly details, keep it simple and modern with the holiday's black and orange color scheme.

If your wedding falls on the day after Halloween, on the Mexican holiday Dia de los Muertos, add a cultural twist to your big day by adding "day of the dead" details like masks and skulls.

If there's any filmmaker who encapsulates the Halloween spirit, it's the man behind Corpse Bride and The Nightmare Before Christmas, Tim Burton. Adding touches from his films adds a spooky yet whimsical feeling to your wedding.

Celebrate your wedding in Day of the Dead style by using a rainbow of colors on everything from your flags, roses, centerpieces, and skeleton cake toppers.

Your wedding can be classic and traditional, but be sure to at least have a huge box of costumes, masks, and props for the photo booth and reception. Your guests will love it!

Devi's delight? Ghoulish ganache? We love the idea of getting punny and making guests think twice before biting into decadent desserts.
