The couple were both dressed as skeletons, with the bride, Karen, wearing a black outfit instead of the usual white wedding dress. 

'I'm not a white dress person – I don't like to be the centre of attention. At first I thought we could all turn up in tennis gear because Steve is a keen player but we might have been a bit cold,' she told Bristol Evening Post. 

'I wanted a good, fun day and with it being Halloween, thought that would be a good theme.'

The guests were also convinced to come as creatures of the night, with some dressing as witches and others donning vampire costumes. 

The groom, Steve, admitted he was a bit hesitant at first but loved it once he got into the swing of things. 

'I did have reservations but once my face was painted, I thought it was terrific and couldn't wait,' he said. 

Karen who is a housekeeper at a retirement complex and Steve a lorry driver plan to go on a honeymoon next year but have ruled out Transylvania as a possible destination.
