Happy Halloween, wedding lovers! No tricks today, instead we have a special Halloween treat for you! Next year in 2014, Halloween is on a Friday, which means – weddings! I’m sure there will be lots of weddings on Halloween night and weekend in the Washington DC area in 2014. How do you decorate? Do you ask your guests to come in costume? We all know about pumpkins, spooky ghosts and, of course, candy treats.But, what if you want to up the sophistication factor? You know, pay homage to Halloween, but keep it classy.
