Next, let us look at a few different ideas for a Halloween themed wedding. We have the traditional Halloween theme with pumpkins, candy, gourds, and even witches if you desire. Another Halloween themed wedding idea is more on the trick side than the treat side and might involve vampires, spiders, ghosts and goblins. It is your Halloween themed wedding so whether you choose the nice or naughty route your flowers should match.

For example if you decide on a traditional low key, fun Halloween wedding then you would want to go with the pumpkins and things in that category. Therefore, your crepe paper flower centerpieces or bouquets could be filled with lovely paper flowers in the shades of orange with a touch of white.

If you decide to opt for the naughtier side of the Halloween themed wedding, you may choose to have black flowers. Let us look at a few ideas to help your trickster wedding along. You can add spider webs to the centerpieces and a few small plastic spiders. In addition, we recommended all black flowers; roses work great and if you can add a little crinkle in them. If you are using greenery, be sure to color (paint) it black as well and add a few fake bugs.
