Frankenstein and the Bride of Frankenstein

• Frankenstein and his bride are rather well known among Halloween couples. In order to achieve the Frankenstein look, a dark colored suit jacket with large shoulders is needed, along with matching trousers and platform shoes to add height. Face makeup will be necessary to give the face a gray and green appearance and add neck bolts. Kits are sold that offer everything necessary. The bride of Frankenstein is much easier to copy. A wig will have to be bought to match the notorious black beehive with white stripes. All that needs to be added is a white dress and white face makeup.
  
  

Vampire Bride and Groom

• Vampires are all the rage in both literature and Hollywood. Costume ideas abound, and how to pull off the vampire look depends on which direction you're aiming. To achieve a more traditional vampire look, such as Dracula, black capes and dark clothing are best for attire. Dark hair and white face makeup are also important, and the look can be completed with fangs and red makeup on the chin to give the appearance of recent blood drinking.
  
  

Ghostly Bride and Groom

• There are some great ghost costumes available on the web, but the look can be achieved at home. For the bride, a gauzy, battered gray dress and long gray wig with white or gray face makeup and a veil will complete the look. For the groom, a tattered gray suit and vest with a gray wig and top hat as well as white face makeup will give the appropriate ghostly look.
  
  

Gomez and Morticia Addams

• Gomez and Morticia are the famous leading couple of The Addams Family. Creepily charismatic, they are a great choice for a Halloween wedding. To pull off Gomez, a black mustache and short black hair gelled and combed back is necessary, but no face makeup. A black and purple suit with a red shirt and black bow tie complete the ensemble. Morticia is beautiful in a very Gothic way, so to achieve her look properly, the bride should wear a tight black dress with white face makeup and long, straight black hair. Her eyes should have dark, smoky makeup and her lips should be red.
