We love spider webs! At least the fake kind that you can use to decorate to your heart's content. For an easy decorating project, drape faux spider webbing over your centerpieces for an eerie vibe. Looking to kick it up a notch? Spider webbing draped across the chandeliers on your ceiling can be both spooky and elegant at the same time!
The key to an awesome Halloween wedding? Smoke! Whether you opt for a fog machine, or colorful smoke bombs, this easy special effect is sure to set the atmosphere.
If tarot cards are your thing, they can be a great accent to your wedding. Use them as a thematic but meaningful accent for place cards or centerpieces or hire a tarot card reader to offer live readings during your reception. Guests from all walks of life will get a kick out of it!
Couples choose Halloween themed weddings for dozens of reasons. For some, Halloween represents a time where we honor all shades of light in life, even the darkness. It's a hauntingly beautiful perspective. This real wedding aims to honor both life and death through its colorful decor and alternative traditions:
"The colorful aesthetic of the Day of the Dead lent itself beautifully to the idea that both life and death can be celebrated at a wedding. Even though we vow to love our partners until death, there is an unbreakable bond that extends beyond the physical world. Celebrating death at a wedding is hardly conventional but it can be done beautifully and respectfully.”
