gothic wedding ideas

With a glamorous, real-life couple as models, this gothic infused wedding inspiration shoot from Ashley Gerrity Photography and Creative Eventology is both alluring and romantic at the same time and absolutely perfect inspiration for Halloween brides!

From Ashley Gerrity Photography – “We began with the literary inspiration of Lord Byron’s She Walks in Beauty and created an elegant wedding with undertones of Victorian Gothicism and spiritual occultism.

We chose to mix the light and airy Wings gown from BHLDN with dramatic hair and makeup styled by Make Me Glam and Up Your Do to give our bride ‘all that’s best of dark and light.’ The tablescape and designs by Rachel of Creative Eveentology set the scene perfectly with her elegantly eclectic styling.

April of April Lynn Designs brought everything together with her elegant burgundy invitation suite and menus, accented with just the right touches of gold.”

From Ashley Gerrity Photography – “Our real life couple, Natalie and Matthew brought our vision to life by infusing our set with their sexy, delicate romance. These two are natural models, fusing Natalie’s grace (she’s a former ballerina) and Matthew’s undeniable style.

Although originally envisioned as an elegant option for the Halloween bride, the mix of deep reds and blacks throughout also lends itself to any late autumn or winter wedding.”
