W. Va. couple had their dream Halloween wedding in Salem
Their love story is truly bewitching.
A West Virginia couple made their eerie dreams come true by tying the knot in the spookiest time and place possible — Halloween in Salem.
Thaddeus and Danielle Martin tied the knot at Salem’s Willows Park on Friday. The bride wore a black dress and a black veil and carried black and red flowers at the ceremony.
Penny Richards, a Justice of the Peace, shared the love story on Facebook along with a photo of the hauntingly happy couple.
“Danielle and Thaddeus made the journey from West Virginia for their Halloween wedding today at Salem Willows,” Richards wrote. “In the company of family and friends, they’ve spent the week here on the North Shore, touring the area while they sat out the three-day waiting period to pick up their marriage license. They said ‘We do’ this morning while Jay Willet of WBZ captured the ceremony for radio and television. The wind howled a gusty gale, but everyone stayed grounded and shared the love. Congratulations!”
“We got engaged back in the spring [and] pretty quickly decided we should get married on Halloween. It’s our favorite holiday,” Thaddeus told WBZ.

Danielle told the outlet, “It was pretty cool to be able to pull it off. There were moments where I didn’t think it was going to happen in Salem.”
