A Twilight style wedding is one of the most romantic wedding ceremonies, showing everyone that no matter what, there is true love! Many couples in love, organizing a wedding ceremony, are sure that after a fabulous event, a fabulous family life awaits them.
So, how does it stand out from other similar themed festivities?
Features of the theme of the holiday
This ceremony fully reveals the theme of love and tenderness, proving that such feelings as in the film exist in reality. Such a wedding is often done outdoors and the first part (or the first holiday) is made up in the fresh air - in a park, in a forest, on the back porch of a house or the place where a banquet is organized. And there is no need to be afraid of anything, because the vampire theme is not always accompanied by an abundance of bloody rivers.
Decoration of the celebration
There are two options for decorating the ceremony hall: strictly following a touching excerpt from the film, or at your own discretion. Consider a festive decoration at the request of the newlyweds.
For the first part (that is, on the street), the design is done in such a way as to create the feeling that the guests and young people are participants in the legendary saga, and now the main characters are happily united.
- A place is chosen that is abundantly covered with greenery (dense forest, for example).
- The branches of large trees are decorated with white pendants, they will resemble a natural downpour in the forest.
- Seats for guests, as well as a wedding arch, are decorated with fern leaves and wildflowers. The path leading to the arch is sprinkled with white flower petals (tulips, lilies, roses).
- On the table there should be things from the vintage genre, which will show the luxury and aristocracy of the family clan.
The ceremony itself is allowed to take place in the evening (“night of the vampires”), so you should worry about the light, otherwise you won’t see anything in the photo.
For the second part (or second day), the hall should be spacious, decorated with an antique theme and warm light. What is better to serve on the table? You can serve a classic menu of salads, fruit (especially green apples) and meats, and the main element of the table, a large cake covered with flowers and small desserts, with “bite me” flags.
The table itself is covered with velvet, reminiscent of blood, but if there are impressionable people at the celebration, it is better to replace it with white.
Drinks are served in antique glasses, preferably red wine or any drink containing red (epoch 18-19).
Wedding images for newlyweds and guests
- The bride is characterized by an elegant white dress of a simple cut with small pebbles and sleeves, but at the same time there is a slight negligence on her head, as if the bride was doing her hair in puffs. The bouquet for her is made up of wild flowers and, preferably, modest, as if it had just been picked.
- The groom is recommended a three-piece suit of a classic combination (black and white or dark brown with white), especially from the era of the life of Count Dracula; a flower placed in a breast pocket is perfect as an accessory;
- For guests, the best option would be outfits of a classic cut or the era of the 18-19th century (this can be divided into “ordinary people” and “representatives of the vampire family”), girlfriends should take evening dresses in lilac or beige tones.
Pleasant little things: invitations, memorable souvenirs

It is better to write the text in a font from past eras, as if with a pen, each letter symbol was displayed, which kept all that joy from the upcoming event.
