Hallo-weddings in Michigan

​It's fairly common to tie holidays in and around your wedding celebration:  4th of July weddings, for example, will often have red, white & blue accents as well as fireworks or sparklers.  The same holds true this time of year, with Halloween fast approaching.  Looking for some good ideas for a Halloween-themed wedding?

Here's some ideas to get you started.  Fall colors would be the easiest thing to incorporate, or how about Jack-O-Lantern centerpieces?  Why not get married in a pumpkin patch?  Believe it or not, many pumpkin patches and cider mills host weddings, and what a great idea to incorporate hot cider, donuts, caramel apples, and pumpkin pie into the dessert menu!  Have your guests pick apples (right at the dessert table) and top them off with their favorite toppings (even incorporate the traditional chocolate fountain!)  Click here for a list of pumpkin patches in Southeast Michigan.  Want to know what other brides think of pumpkin patch weddings?  Click this thread to hear from actual brides, and this thread to here even more Halloween-wedding ideas.
 
Of course, candy is another main theme surrounding Halloween...Have you seen a candy buffet at a wedding yet?  It's become more popular over the past year, where an assortment of sweets are displayed, and your guests fill up individual bags to take their favorite candies home with them.
