Couples Halloween Costumes: The Cute & The Corny
American Gothic

Do you two bond over your love of art? We’ve got the perfect costume for your art-minded couples! Bring Grant Wood’s classic painting “American Gothic” to life for a smart and sweet Halloween couples costume. Outfit your guy in overalls or oversized suspenders, a big blue jacket and circular specs (you can also throw a scull cap to hide his hair for extra authenticity and much hilarity!), and pull on a long-sleeved navy dress over a white button down and top ‘em with a colonial print apron and a brooch at your collar. Hold up a large wood picture frame in front of you two as you pose with a large pitchfork and try to copy the painting’s famous steadfast facial expression. But we’re warning you—with all the compliments you’ll be getting on your creative costume, it’ll be hard not to break character and crack a smile!

I could never get my beau to dress up for Halloween. NEVER! He’s NOT into it and it’s o.k.
American Gothic, please – give me a break (corny)
Mr. & Mrs. Pac Man very cute.
funny
This is funny!
I like the pac man idea.
The pac man would have been cuter if the other costume was the ghost.
I’m not really big on couple costumes, My husband and I dress up and we love Halloween .
Great timing! I was just thinking of costume ideas for my husband & me and this definitely helped.
The guy in the picture from 9 looks like a guy who was on Big Brother….
7 and 8 are too much for my taste.
Tooth and tooth fairy is too cute!
The third one is funny.
The first one is adorable.
I found all of these pretty cheesy honestly, guess i’m just not really that into Halloween.
We dont dress up but if we ever did the only one of these we would do would be Johnny and June Cash. Husbands a big Johnny Cash fan.
