Halloween to the Max

Some folks decorate a little for Halloween. Often you'll see the obligatory jack-o-lantern, perhaps inflatable characters or wee ghosts dangling from trees made of styrofoam balls and cheesecloth. But nothing prepared me for passing by this house in East Jordan, Michigan, the first weekend in October.

I was so impressed, I drove around the block and parked and photographed, and wondered how many others did the same.

This is not one fluid story. It covers a lot of ground. But the focal point is the wedding ceremony.

The bride was lovely in white.

The groom was striking in blue.

And the best man seemed to have a savoir faire all his own.

And then there was the wedding party -- stunning don't you think?

This family look ready for an outing, baby in tow!

They must be accompanying their youngsters as they trick or treat.

These folks appear to be at the reception!

Hats off to this family for such a splendid tableau. I was impressed. I also wish I had their time!

That's a lot of effort for Halloween; I wonder what they do for Christmas...

Yes, that is a lot of effort! They must be very into the Halloween spirit!

My first thought was the same as Joanne's above....if they do all this for Halloween, what do they do at Christmas! Someone is very creative and has a lot of time and energy.

I hope you had just the right number of Trick-or-Treaters!

Oh my- doesn't that make you wonder what the INSIDE of the house looks like- what imagination!

That's a lot of work. I wonder where they store all that stuff the rest of the year.

I love your blog for the photos as well as we don't have anything like that here. It's scarily fab.
