Day of the Dead meets classic glam on the family property

At a Glance

We’ve got gorgeous people making gorgeous weddings with Day of the Dead flair including some vintage influence and a suped-up classic car. You’ll want to see their skull details and amazing arch, too.

We’ve got more Dia de los Muertos weddings coming tomorrow, but here is a teaser to whet your appetite.

Monica and Corey were married with a Día de los Muertos theme on September 3, 2011 in Forest Hill, CA. Renae of Grandeur Photography spent the day with them capturing all the details.

Ultra glam among ultra rustic. You can’t beat the combination for a little punch. And Monica’s victory rolls are impeccable.

I love Monica’s skull necklace. This pair chose some of the best skull details I’ve seen.
