Should you provide the Masquerade masks to your wedding or the guest?

If I did provide them they would be very simple. How would I word that on an invatation that it is a Masquerade/Halloween wedding. Or the can buy whatever kind they wanted and wear their own.Should you provide the Masquerade masks to your wedding or the guest?
If you invite people to a masquerade wedding, some will get into the spirit and bring their own masks, and some will not. Why not kill two bird with one stone: get some simple masquerade masks and decorate them in your wedding colors. Then you could put one at each place setting, and they can serve as favors, too!Should you provide the Masquerade masks to your wedding or the guest?
Well having a Masquerade or a Halloween wedding is actually two different things. If it's a masquerade, supply the masks, if it's a Halloween, people should come in costume. Decide which you'd rather have and stick with that.
I agree with Sara K.





Put on the invatations:


This will be a Masquerade wedding since it will be on Halloween. We will provide masks for those who need them, but if you have your own, that will be great. Tell me on your RSVP card(or when you call, if your doing it that way) if you will or will not need a mask!





Good luck!
Make no mention of Halloween. They already know it's Halloween, but it sounds much more elegant to say that your wedding is a masquerade. They don't need to know why it's a masquerade. Just inform them that guests are welcome to bring their own masks for the celebration, but that masks will also be available for those guests unable to bring their own. It can be put at the bottom of the invitation or as an insert.





If you want explain, include a little mask/masquerade history on the note, unless you're already planning on doing that during your wedding reception.





Have fun! It sounds elegant and lovely, unlike some other weddings planned for Halloween that I've seen on Answers.
If you are requring that guests dress up (which by the way never works like you think it will and usually causes problems) you need to provide the cosutmes and not expect them to buy on their own. There's enough expense involved with attending. In this case, masks.





I would not put a cosutme as a dress code on the invitaiton because then it does become sort of a requirement and some may decilne for that reason. Instead, you can easily spread through word of mouth that cosutmes are perfectly welcome and you are having that theme.
have basic ones at hand and ready and if the guests want to get all funky on your *** then they can do that.





Have something on teh invite saying everyone HAS to dress up and if they want a decent costume then get their own or end up wearing you grans underwear
