A sinister and glam Hallowedding of epic proportions

Patti and Matt are Halloween fans and their Hallowedding was the ultimate expression of spooky romance. Patti wore a black dress while her crew wore their own style of gray dresses. She gifted them with “blood stained” clutches to match the theme. Don’t miss Matt ‘s Vans and skulls tie, too.

They walked themselves down the aisle to The White Stripes’ “Seven Nation Army” and had vows inspired by different quotes from movies. Hell yes, movie fans!

Anne Boleyn weds Freddy Krueger: When a Halloween costume wedding wins over every horror fan

We wanted potential guests to know what they were getting into right away and used our invitations to set the tone. They had a photo of us as bride and groom zombies and included a “Costumes Required” section. We had a basket of masks available at the ceremony in case people didn’t take the invitation seriously but our guests outdid themselves. Every single person got behind our theme and showed up in an amazing costume. Despite the instructions to our guests many thought we were going to wear “normal” bride and groom attire. We proved them wrong and got married in our dream Halloween costumes. Anne Boleyn weds Freddy Krueger? Why not?!

Ashley hand-painted the cake toppers on their spider web Halloween cake to include their zombie pooch. Are you ready to see this killer zombie gas mask-erade wedding?! We are, too…
