“There is no beauty without some strangeness in the proportion.” - Edgar Allan Poe

Valentine's day 2026 falls over a weekend and includes a Friday the 13th which makes this the perfect opportunity to get married or renew your vows to your dark Valentine.

The Dark Valentine Wedding Package offers two options:

Ceremony only: This is for those who only want the ceremony without a blood ritual included. 

Ceremony & Blood ritual: This option includes a blood ritual, facilitated by our certified and insured phlebotomists. During this process, both you and your partner will prick your finger and place a small drop of blood into a chalice which is filled with a liquid of your choosing (usually wine). All supplies related to pricking your fingers as well as their disposal will be provided and handled by the phlebotomist. Please note the liquid chosen for the blood ritual as well as the chalice used must be supplied by the client. This is for the safety of you and your partner as well as all parties involved. 

This package is only available on Friday February 13th, Saturday February 14th and Sunday February 15th of 2026. If you are looking to book other dates in February, please select from one of our regular wedding packages.
