My husband and I married in a goth wedding on Halloween - my bridal gown was black and I wore Dr Martens

A bride has shown off her very different wedding - including wearing a black wedding dress and Dr Martens as she tied the knott on Halloween.

Skyelar Kowalewski, from Indiana in the USA, chose a 'goth' theme for her nuptials to husband Colton - in a ceremony she refers to as her 'Hallowedding'. 

Skyelar chose to break tradition in almost every way possible - and the results were stunning. 

The bride opted for a black wedding gown from Mia Bella Couture with a long flowing veil. 

The dress even had a large slit up the thigh, as Skyelar wanted to show off her chunky Dr. Martens boots.

Skyelar said: 'I chose an unconventional wedding because I really wanted something different from the norm. 

'I've always loved darker fashion and spookier trends so it felt natural to me to choose a darker, moodier, almost goth style wedding. 

'I love the colour black in general and I didn't see many black wedding dresses at the time and I thought it would be so cool to do something super different!' 

She added: 'I always knew I wanted an alternative feel for the wedding and I had already picked out a black wedding dress, so it only made sense to wear my favourite Dr. Martens platform boots!'

Skyelar, who also posts on TikTok under the name @ghoulfriendnextdoor, also wore a flower crown of black roses.

Instead of the usual wedding cake with white icing, Skyelar's cake was of course black, and even included versions of herself and Colton as skeletons

The happy couple said they incorporated 'Corpse Bride' vows into their ceremony, taking the idea of 'til death do us part' very literally

The venue at Fort Wayne in Indiana was decorated in a similar theme with black candles and signs with quotes such as 'it was always you' and 'you and me'. 

The happy couple said they incorporated 'Corpse Bride' vows into their ceremony, taking the idea of 'til death do us part' very literally.  

Colton the groom also wore a suit in a jet black colour, while the bridesmaids were a deep shade of wine red. 

Colton and Kerrie also chose to wear Docs and Skyelar even added a slit in her dress to allow them to be seen more easily.

For their anniversary, Skyelar and Colton decided to continue the theme, taking snaps in a cemetery.
