Even there 4-year-old son is obsessed with the horror, haunts, blood, and guts that come along with the creepy holiday, and Lauren wanted to make sure that the boys would have just as much fun on the big day as she would.
“He had fun, I had fun, everybody that was involved with it was such a big help to make it happen, but I wanted to make sure it was just as much him as it was me, she said.
The couple held their wedding at the Elmwood Park Zoo.
The backdrop for the eventcame complete with trees, colored tulle, and tomb stones.
There was even a carousel on site that madea great setting for their wedding photos.
The carousel was the perfect backdrop for our first-look photos, she explained. It was so colorful.
The wedding party worepurple and black attire, with the bridesmaids secretly wearing Halloween-themed boxers. Their son even looked like a skeleton!
Wedding guests also came in costume for the ceremony, which was held on October 30th. There were even prizes for the best outfit at the end.
Their reception also looked like it was pulled from a spooky Halloween fantasy.
It came complete with scary centerpieces and a trick-or-treating bar where partygoers could load up on candy.
