It is that time of year and vampires and werewolves are waiting for their night out. Vampires and romance are so in vogue now thanks to Twilight and True Blood. If you love the idea of romance with a tinge of the supernatural and get really excited about the colors of All Hallows Eve, you should start planning a Halloween wedding.

And a Halloween wedding is a perfect way to bring it all together – a wedding with a dash of the dark side. The idea of a Halloween wedding can be interpreted in many different ways. You can go all out and have a completely Gothic wedding with the black wedding gown, black tuxedo and black and white themed wedding supplies. The beautiful, classic damask pattern should make an entrance here. Or you can get your wedding party to go with the zombies and vampires theme. Think of the drama of blood red rose petals contrasting with all that black!

Or you can go for a subtler Halloween theme with the touches of orange and black and the Jack-o’-lantern and other decorative elements being used to create an atmosphere. Be creative and use details such as Halloween cupcake wrappers to add to your decor. There are many exciting products from Halloween wedding invitations to Halloween wedding favors that you can use, whether you decide to go strong or subtle!

Halloween weddings are hard to resist. There is all the fun of a party in-built into the theme and there is so much room for imagination and creativity. Halloween is a day that adults, as much as kids, like to let down their hair and party and, if that is the kind of fun vibe you want for your wedding, there is no better theme really. Especially if you are planning an October wedding or a fall wedding, the Halloween theme will make it a truly memorable occasion!
After all the time and effort you have taken to plan your ceremony, whether it is a sweet-sixteen party, a wedding or a baby shower, make sure that you bring the same attention to detail when choosing your wedding favors. It is after all the lingering last note of your celebration that your friends and family will take away with them. Whether it is a formal Church wedding and ballroom reception or a casual pool-side bachelorette party, the right party favor can be the icing on top of the perfectly planned event!

If you are looking for a wedding favors, and are finding the choices mind-boggling, it is a great idea to tie in your favors with the theme of the wedding. If you are choosing a beach or nautical themed wedding, the sandalwood fans and sunscreen lotions can be part of a nice package to put together for your guests. You can combine these with a mini-guest photo album and a disposable camera and not only have you linked the favor to the occasion but you have added that extra special personal touch to it.
Edible favors make for a popular choice in many celebrations because you really cannot go wrong with good chocolate! Beautifully wrapped lollipops, which can also be personalized, are popular again for the same reason.

Beautiful personalized polka dot boxes and satin bags can become part of the décor and add an interesting layer to your theme and table settings. Remember though that you are allowed to think “outside the box”! You can give a small container plant or even a packet of seeds if you are going with an eco-friendly wedding idea. Wedding favors are all about connecting with your guests and so think in terms of what will be fun for you and your guests!
Tuscany and Provence, the Italian and French country side, are popular settings for romantic films for a reason. The lushness of nature, the casual beauty of flowers and ponds make for a fresh and fun feel and you can recreate this ambience in your own lovely garden wedding.

Garden weddings can work in a large vineyard-like landscape and in smaller more manicured gardens. Whether you go rustic or more urbane, you should emphasize the elements of the setting that attract you the most – the grass, the flowers, flowing lines of the curved branch and the sense of harmonious and vibrant life. A garden wedding is limitless in terms of color choices. Green and white can make sort of a solid foundation and you can add whatever you want to make this your own very personal bouquet. It is a good idea to go with organic materials such as natural bark tree vases as they will compliment the setting in a simple way.

Parasol umbrellas and garden lanterns will be perfect for setting the stage with just the right touch of English garden or Impressionist art. Flowing fabrics in pastel shades can help create a romantic background and help define spaces. A few high-strung lines of paper lanterns can be a charming touch as the light fades and the guests kick back and settle down to enjoy the food and wine. You can send your guests off with miniature garden shovels or elegant seed packets as wedding favors in keeping with the garden theme too.
Fall is all about glorious colors, a lovely nip in the air and the onset of early dusk. People flock to see fall colors in Vermont and New Hampshire not just because of the colors but because it is a season with an inherent sense of romance. And this makes it a perfect setting for a wedding.

Whether you choose to have your wedding in fall or recreate the feeling of autumn’s natural beauty in an indoor ceremony, there are many elegant touches that you can use to enhance the feel of the season. Use nature as an inspiration and do not hesitate to bring together the vibrant hues of autumn – think orange, deep red and even brown. Also think in terms of texture. The crisp feel of fall leaves, the silky smooth finish of pumpkin pie and the tartness of the apples are all elements of the season can all help determine the look and feel of a fall wedding.

If you set the wedding outside in a farm or a barn you can have the benefit of nature’s own backdrop and create a rustic feel for the wedding with bales of hay and some strategic use of autumn harvest. If you are recreating autumn inside or in a place where you do not get the vibrant colors of fall, you can use fall leaves “rose petals” mixed with locally available fresh flowers to create the color scheme that you visualize. Use a hand strung beaded curtain with autumn colors to create the backdrop for your sweetheart table. Even your ceremony can be touched with the inspiration of fall with a personalized fall wedding aisle runner.
