Another Halloween-inspired wedding board for you today, though again I tried to keep it from being too obvious. The palette is elegantly whimsical – fitting for both a black tie affair and a Halloween soiree. Silver jack-o-lanterns set the mood, though nothing overly shiny and new – mercury glass has a tarnished look to it that’s just perfect here. Black polka dots on a white backdrop are wonderfully fun. Make table numbers key players in centerpieces, by creating number collections under a bell jar: glittered numbers, dominoes, playing cards all let guests know where to sit. I couldn’t find any great images for this, but I think that silver glittered spider webs could be a nice touch – maybe as favors for your guests.

Mood: elegantly eerie whimsy
Palette: cool white, jet black, mercury glass
