Black wedding dresses may not be the norm, but if you are not afraid to venture out of your comfort zone, they can be so beautiful for a Halloween wedding. Flowers seem to pop against the dark backdrop of a gothic wedding dress, and a dark gown can truly make a statement for an autumn or winter wedding.
Gothic Wedding Dress Inspiration
Are you thinking of having a Halloween wedding? This styled wedding described as “glamourous, vampy, spooky, and romantic” by the photographer, offers so much inspiration for the bride who wants Halloween wedding ideas on a budget. And wearing a gothic wedding dress is bold, yet beautiful. Halloween bouquets are dreamy with hues of purple and red paired with darker tones.
A bride can also search for vintage wedding dresses to dye dark to create the ethereal effect of a cemetery wedding. Venues outside allow for the foliage to shine through in all of its glory to add to the feel of a fall wedding. Bouquets can also pick up the tones of the changing leaves for an even more stunning effect.

A dark Halloween dress doesn’t only mean black wedding dresses as hues of plum, emerald, maroon, and other deep tones would work just as well for a gothic wedding dress. Add in perfect hair and striking makeup, and you have a look that is lovely for a Halloween wedding any time of year.
