Things to Consider
There are some things you should consider when choosing what costume to wear to a Halloween-themed wedding. We've compiled some of our top tips below, including advice on how to wear seasonal colors and avoid looking like you just stepped out of a pumpkin patch.
- Respect the dress code
It's not a good idea to dress up as Elle Woods or to show up at a Halloween wedding dressed in a costume, while the rest of the wedding party is in formal attire. Kristen Schnars is the director of apparel design and merchandising at Lulu’s. "If they ask you to wear a costume, it will be noted on your invitation. It is important to note any specific theme, color palette or dress code. You can always reach out to the couple if you have any questions. Keep your Harry Potter-themed Halloween costume safe.
- Do not go too far.
Although their wedding day falls on Halloween, that doesn't mean you have to dress up in your best. Schnars says, "Remember that this is still the couple’s big day." "Halloween weddings are a great opportunity to have more fun with your dress, but don't go overboard. You could end up embarrassing the bride.
- Don't forget to accessorize.
Even if you don't have Halloween decor, there are subtle ways to incorporate Halloween into your wedding guest outfits. Accessorize with themed accessories like jewelry or your beauty look." You can subtly add to the season with a dramatic cat eye, bloodred lips, or cute Halloween nails.
Attire Ideas
It can be difficult to keep a Halloween theme in your wedding without making it too overwhelming. How do you get around this? Looking for fabrics and silhouettes with a lot of dramas. Think of sparkly embellishments like fringe, sheer tulle, lace, rich velvet, moody flowers, or statement details such as bell sleeves and ruffles. It's always a good idea to use darker jewel tones and metallics such as gold and silver. She advocated wearing Halloween's favorite color. "Shades can be fun, and that doesn't necessarily have to be bright pumpkin orange. Rust, in fabrics like satin, is sophisticated and stylish. You'll wear it again.
