Alanna & Nathan’s Day of the Dead secluded outdoor wedding

Day of the Dead details in a gorgeous outdoor venue plus Halloween masks means a double holiday-themed wedding in Texas. The bride almost had a dress tragedy, but you’d never know it from the way her red gown looks. The bride also collects Mexican art and her love shows in all the DIY elements.

Jessica & David’s offbeat lite meets piñatas and Halloween wedding

A reluctant bride comes full circle in accepting her marriage starting with their awesome Halloween wedding. This couple managed to combine a cemetery, costume favors, piñatas, and a little bit of offbeat lite tradition into this ghoulish party.

The bridal party wore fangs, the officiant dressed as Dark Oberon, and the bride ended up in her sister’s dress. Craziness ensues.

Abby & Robb’s big family handfasting Halloween wedding

It takes a village to make a budget wedding and this couple had good friends to help. Handfasting, broom jumping, a last-minute Home Depot tie, and a little Doctor Who geekery make for a damn good time. Don’t forget to check out the bridesmaid’s different bouquets too! Just another awesome notch on the Halloween week checklist.

Kerri & Chris’ trick-or-treat Halloween military wedding

A Halloween theme, zombie-themed live band, and a saber arch in one wedding? Hell yes. This rockin’ party had these influences and more, including pumpkin carving, a candy buffet, and real live trick-or-treaters busting in. Even though the bride almost didn’t get her dress in time due to a volcano(!), they still managed to host a kick-ass party, giving us another great wedding for Halloween week.
