Till Death Do Us Part Costume

We had a college "end of the world" party to go to and skimpy costumes aren't either of our cup of teas so we figured we'd go for super scary and realistic. The idea was for myself and my best friend just to go as zombies but when we accidentally put some rips in some compromising positions we had the brain wave of a zombie bride and groom. Our costumes cost around $20 for both of them together as we bought all the clothes for a couple of bucks at a few local thrift shops. After watching a few youtube tutorials about zombie flesh we decided we could probably wing it and it turned out great. Black eye shadow was rubbed around the eye area, then half the face was covered in PVA glue, thin toilet paper and more glue. While the glue was still wet we made random splotches of blacks, reds, and browns with lipstick and eyeshadow and then poured fake blood over the top. The clothes we tried on and ripped (so we didn't rip anywhere that wasn't supposed to be open to public), then rolled them in dirt and more fake blood.
