About Mrs. Taffy

You’ve seen the amazing robot costume made by the groom, and the bride’s vintage style. Now on to the rest of the spooky details!

I’ll start with a very creative wedding gift: A knife set- splashed in fake blood & arranged to make a horror scene:

The next spooky detail is my favorite of the whole wedding!!! Warning: it is a little on the gory side.

The ring bearer (dressed like Yogurt from Space Balls) did not carry the rings on a pillow. What did he use? A helping hand, of course!

That had me laughing all night. What a great idea! I love dark humor.

All of the guests really got into the spirit of Halloween. What did the bride’s mother wear? (These images were taken inside the haunted house, where a fog machine was on full blast!)

And the grandmother of the bride (our favorite costume!)?

I love that she was in a gorilla suit! :)

The mother of the groom’s costume was pretty amazing too:

The bride & groom wore traditional wedding attire for the ceremony:

Then the groom got into his awesome robot costume. I helped him put the head on:

I was a zombie bridesmaid! I ended up wearing the vintage dress without a sweater- it was really warm on Halloween night!

Mr. Taffy was my cute zombie date:

I had to duck from all of the cameras during the ceremony:

I gave the bride & groom a trick or treat bag along with their wedding gifts.

They used these cute Halloween invitations for their wedding invites:

They bought this awesome photo album from Michael’s and used it as a guest book / album:

After the ceremony, we went to the after party for a little while then went to Rob’s uncle’s house nearby for pizza, cake & cocktails. It was so much fun! Before we left, Mr. Taffy and I decorated their car with bells, bats, skulls & ghosts!

Here’s the wedding cake:

Notice the difference between these two cake cutting pictures- one is traditional, and one is very Halloween:

Of course there was Halloween candy to munch on (the original candy buffet!):

The favors were hilarious! I love the rings placed on the ring finger. Mrs. Candy Corn, check out these nails!

This was seriously the most fun we have had at a wedding. Everyone was so excited to come together and the newlyweds are so happy.  :)

Think of how much fun they will have each year on their anniversary! Have you ever been to a Halloween wedding?

Zombies how? Because you had a bit of red under your eyes and he had a bit of red at the corners of his mouth? No.
And why does this web page try to set 90 cookies? 90!!! WTF could a single page possibly need 90 freaking cookies for?
Looking for Hallowe’en taffy and found this. Oh well.
