Pros and Cons of Gothic Weddings in Los Angeles

The Gothic wedding trend is growing in popularity for couples looking for a unique and dramatic way to celebrate their nuptials. For some, dreaming of a romantic ceremony with a dark and mysterious vibe can become a reality when arranging such a wedding in Los Angeles. Here are some advantages and disadvantages to consider when opting for this type of event:

Advantages

  • Gothic weddings in LA provide couples with the opportunity to be creative, express their individuality, and craft a truly unique celebration. The style associated with Gothic themes is untraditional and is sure to create a host of unique and gorgeous photos throughout the ceremony.

  • Lovebirds can choose from an array of vendors that specialize in producing stunningly dark-themed decor, luxurious attire, and eye-catching centerpieces. Decor options are very flexible for Gothic-themed weddings, so long as it is dark colored, it fits.

  • The city itself offers many spectacular venues with Gothic architecture or spooky vibes that make it easy to create the atmosphere they are seeking. This gives the couple a huge selection of venues and decor vendors which helps take a lot of vendor-hunting stress off their shoulders.

Disadvantages

  • Some people may find the darker theme off-putting or even disrespectful to tradition. This can cause certain guests to prefer not to attend, or even cause unnecessary drama within the family.

  • While these types of ceremonies provide plenty of creative freedom, it can be challenging to bring all the pieces together in one coherent theme: if you’re not careful, you could end up with something that looks disjointed and confusing.

  • Couples may need to put extra effort into discovering reliable professionals who specialize in this particular niche within the wedding industry such as makeup artists, florists, and caterers who understand their vision.

Tips on How to Organize Gothic Weddings in Los Angeles

Arranging a Gothic wedding in Los Angeles can be an exciting yet daunting endeavor. To make your special day go off without a hitch, here are some tips:

  • Start by researching potential venues. Look for locations with darkly romantic aesthetics such as converted chapels and old castles, or consider an outdoor setting like a botanical garden or secluded beach. Make sure you book your desired spot well in advance to avoid disappointment.

  • Consider getting creative when it comes to catering. Goth-inspired dishes such as blood orange soup and blackened steak tartare can give your wedding meal added drama and flair. Local food trucks also offer interesting alternatives to classic reception fare.

  • Seek out vendors that specialize in goth weddings. You can find makeup artists and hairstylists who are familiar with creating looks inspired by Victorian, Edwardian, or steampunk fashion; photographers who know how to capture the essence of your day; musicians generating moody soundtracks; and decoration firms versed in macabre touches such as wrought iron candelabras and wreaths of dried roses.

  • Don't forget about transporting guests from the ceremony to the reception. Vintage carriages, horse-drawn carriages, and party buses — all are great options for adding a touch of spooky glamor to your big day.

Famous Locations in Los Angeles

  • Korean Bell of Friendship
    Located at the top of a hill overlooking the Pacific in Angel’s Gate Park, this majestic bell was gifted to the city in 1976 by South Korea as a gesture of goodwill. The rusty green patina of its metal and brightly painted hipped roof make for a striking sight, enhancing further still its peaceful solitude from all other places in Los Angeles. Gather around for a delightful experience of flying kites, having picnics, and visiting the Korean Bell to commemorate international friendship.

  • Space Shuttle Endeavour
    People from all walks of life were eager to bid farewell to an incredible era as Endeavour OV-105 made its moving final flight. From the east to the west, bridges and rooftops were lined with onlookers as they greeted the last flight of the fifth and final space shuttle created by NASA. The first mission launched in 1992 capturing imaginations around the world and inspiring us to believe anything was possible. Those wishing to delight in one last look at Endeavor must make advanced reservations depending on their visiting day and are required on weekends and holidays.

  • Holyland Exhibition
    While the Indiana Jones franchise might give an unfair association with Antonia F. Futterer, it is rumored that the character was in fact based on him. His life story began with a severe illness that led him to faith and a belief in the Bible, kindling his curiosity about the history of mankind. That spark was what prompted various explorations throughout the Holy Land, including his personal quest for the fabled Golden Ark of the Covenant. Although he came up empty-handed, he ended up collecting a remarkable trove of artifacts from Syria, Jordan, Egypt, Cyprus, and Palestine. With nowhere to store this expansive collection, the man decided to open the Antonia F. Futterer Alienist Museum in Los Angeles. To this day visitors can tour its five rooms filled with antiquities such as 5,000-year-old oil lamps and coins — true marvels that bear witness to man's adaptive spirit throughout generations.
