In an unconventional turn of events, Mathew and Hannah Parfitt chose to wed in a cemetery on the famously unlucky day of Friday the 13th.

Their ceremony, which was filled with laughter and love, sent a clear message: love triumphs over superstition.
As guests walked through the ornate gates of the charming cemetery, they were in for a surprise.

With every guest present able to embrace the spooky theme, the couple not only celebrated their love but also rewrote the narrative of an otherwise ominous day.
Hannah, dressed in a stunning white gown with gothic touches, and Mathew, sporting a sleek black suit, both looked the part amidst the grave markers and mausoleums. "It was perfect for us!" Mathew exclaimed. Their ceremony included playful references to the day, with horror-themed vows and pumpkin spice lattes served in skull cups and for those who wished for a sweet treat, a spectral cake topped with ghostly marshmallows. The couple truly showed that one can have fun with tradition while creating a unique and memorable experience.
By the end of the night, guests were raving about the event, claiming it was one of the most fun weddings they had attended. Mathew and Hannah's tale of love will surely haunt the memories of their friends and family for years to come. Whether you're a believer in superstitions or not, this wedding proves that when it comes to love, pairing the unconventional with heartfelt celebration makes for an unforgettable blend.
