COUPLE SAYS “I DO” AT UNIVERSAL ORLANDO RESORT’S HALLOWEEN HORROR NIGHTS

Halloween Horror Nights Wedding Featured Ceremony at a Haunted House, Frightening “Scareactor” Wedding Guests, Hearse Ride for Bride and Groom and More

Orlando, Fla. – April Richardson and Adam Cochran – the winners of Universal Orlando Resort’s first-ever Halloween Horror Nights Wedding contest – “tied the noose” today at Halloween Horror Nights XX. They shared the “wedding of their nightmares” with family, friends and menacing scareactors.

The wedding took place at one of Halloween Horror Night’s eight haunted houses. Cold fog and the sounds of an eerie bridal march filled the air as April walked down the aisle to meet Adam.  Frightening scareactors lurked throughout the ceremony as the bride and groom exchanged their vows.  Once the couple was announced husband and wife, the wedding guests cheered as scareactors snarled and the sounds of chainsaws from the Chainsaw Drill Team erupted. 

The newlyweds then boarded a hearse and rode to the wedding reception.  Chainsaw-wielding scareactors escorted the hearse as it slowly processed through Universal Studios, followed by the wedding guests dressed in black cloaks.  At the reception, everyone enjoyed a three-tier cake decorated with spider webs and a skull cake topper.  The entire wedding party also experienced the horror of Universal Orlando’s Halloween Horror Nights firsthand.
