It’s Halloween, which means it’s time for costumes, spooky movies, jack-o-lanterns, and tons of candy! While Halloween is a ton of fun, most people would probably steer clear of mixing dark, spooky, Halloween elements to their wedding, but some people embrace the darkness and go all-out to create the Halloween weddings of their dreams (or nightmares!).
While you might think a Halloween wedding would look tacky and cheesy with all of the garish colors and plastic decor, there are definitely ways to add spooky elements in a chic, elevated way! We’ve chosen a few of our favorite enchanting Halloween wedding ideas to show you just how cool they can be!
