Not all rainbows and glitter: 16 reasons dark wedding themes are glam as hell
We love to feature rainbow weddings, whimsical weddings, sparkly beach weddings, but some offbeat weddings are dark, mysterious, and decidedly non-whimsical. That’s when goth meets Halloween meets black dresses and jewel tones and Medieval-inspired venues.
Sometimes weddings are elegant and moody and so perfectly gorgeous. Let’s take a peek at all kinds of goth and dark wedding themes and details…
A super chic urban forest wedding in the heart of Chicago
Karen and Bill wanted a stylish urban forest wedding in Chicago, and somehow managed to bring in so much of nature into a chic city space. Air plants, succulents, ferns, logs, herbs, and manzanita branches created the most lush forest we’ve seen in a wedding yet… without actually being a forest, of course! Want to see?
A 13-color handfasting and fire dancing at this Quebec wiccan wedding
This Quebec wiccan wedding had a lovely handfasting that involved 13 of their friends, pagan and wiccan rituals, fire dancers, musicians, and so many of the couples’ friends contributing their wares and talents. It turned out to be a community-led wedding with fantasy, goth and viking details, and personal spirituality. You’ll want to take a look, especially at the bride’s amazing dress!
Morticia and Gomez fully support this elegantly goth Addams Family wedding
A black dress, matching Morticia and Gomez tattoos (turned into a guest book!), their son as “ring security,” and love potion favors… this wedding is an homage to one of our #goals couples, and now this couple fits that bill, too. Who better to model yourselves after than the one couple more in love than anyone? This elegantly goth Addams Family wedding has us swooning hardcore. You will, too.
