This post is all about cute Halloween costume ideas for couples

Going out on Halloween is one of the best parts about being in college and in your 20s. At my school, it was always known as “Halloweekend” since everyone would go out Friday, Saturday, and Sunday dressed up to celebrate Halloween.

Everyone goes all out and it’s a whole weekend full of fun. Dressing up with your significant other can be a fun way to bond and bring you two together. Also, who doesn’t want some epic couple’s pictures to look back on?

Figure out what vibe you’re going for, whether that’s sultry, spooky, or cute, and go from there. You can use these 25 cute Halloween costume ideas for inspiration to help you and your boyfriend, girlfriend, or partner decide on a unique costume to wear together to your next college Halloween party.

Also, both of these outfits look incredibly comfortable for a night out at a college Halloween party, which is a total bonus.

#4 Padme and Anakin

We’re always in need of an iconic couple. Nothing says star-crossed lovers like Padme and Anakin from Star Wars. Don’t forget the lifesaber as a prop for Anakin and make sure to dress in your best all-white outfit for Padme. You seriously can’t go wrong with this costume. Also, most people have seen Star Wars, making it a great conversation topic for the night.

#5 Buzz and Woody

Another classic animated film duo to dress up as this Halloween is Woody and Buzz. These costumes are easy to shop for and the bright-colored costumes will stand out in photos. Brush up on your Toy Story facts if you want to make fun and relatable conversation while out with friends.

#6 Mermaid and Sailor

This is one of those cute Halloween costume ideas that’ll work for pretty much any occasion. Whether you’re headed out to the bar or a house party on Halloween night, these costumes will make any couple look good together. Just don’t forget your costume accessories such as the sailor hat, sunglasses, and pearl necklace.

#7 Patient and Nurse

If you’re in medical school, love Grey’s Anatomy, or want a cute and fun Halloween costume for couples, dress up as a patient and a nurse. These costumes are incredibly affordable to put together since you barely need any props. Just some scrubs, a cute white outfit, and a pretend stethoscope.

#7 Batman and Batgirl

Okay, this costume idea for couples is totally hot. If you both want to blend in and look cool and confident for Halloween night, dress up as Batman and Batgirl. The all-black costumes will make anyone look good and they scream sexy and confident which we love!

#8 Cop and Prisoner

This is such a funny costume idea that’ll surely get some laughs. Dress him up in some orange scrubs or an orange jumpsuit and put your best cop outfit on. You’ll be able to take some hilarious photos together and will look like an obvious couple when you go out together.

#9 IT Characters

This is a costume idea for couples that I absolutely love. The bright yellow and red go perfectly together. It’s the perfect spooky Halloween-themed costume. Also, what better way to celebrate Halloween together as a couple than watching IT before you go out together?

#10 Cow and Cowgirl

You can’t help but smile when you look at this Halloween costume idea. A cow and cowgirl are the perfect pair. You don’t have to get super creative with these outfits and all the clothes you’ll need will be easy to find. These costumes make for a pretty adorable duo, not going to lie.

#11 Astronaut and Alien

If you want a cute costume that is out of this world (pun intended) go as an alien and astronaut. This is a fun couple’s costume that’ll make you stand out amongst the sea of other Halloween costumes. All he needs is an orange astronaut suit and all you need is a silver or holographic skirt, some body glitter, and an alien headband.

#12 Harley Quinn and Joker

This is for couples who want something bold for their Halloween costumes. To embody these characters, you need to have some confidence. These characters are all about being bad and having fun with it. So if you dress up as Harley Quinn and Joker, have fun and try to embody that bold confidence these characters have.

#13 Fred and Daphne

I loved Scooby Doo growing up. If you go out in these costumes, it’ll definitely trigger people’s nostalgia. This duo is iconic. Plus, these costumes are easy to find and quick to put together, making them an ideal choice if you’re planning and preparing to go out multiple nights.

#14 Statue of Liberty and Uncle Sam

Whoever came up with this costume idea first deserves a pat on the back. I mean, c’mon. This is one of the most fun and creative Halloween costume ideas for couples that’ll work for any party. Not to mention, these are even more on brand with it being an election year.

#15 Deer and Hunter

This couple’s costume is perfect for an outdoorsy couple. Even better if your boyfriend or girlfriend likes to hunt since you won’t have to do much extra shopping for a camo outfit. It’s simple, easy, and cute.

#16 Plankton and Mr.Krabs

If you watched Spongebob when you were younger, you need to dress up as Plankton and Mr.Krabs. This is one of those cute Halloween costume ideas I haven’t seen done a lot. This means you’ll be less likely to see another couple wearing the same costumes when you go out.

#17 Barbie and Ken

If you’re a blonde and a brunette couple, this couple’s costume is perfect for you two. It’s totally hot and you can get some hilarious photo opts pretending to be two plastic Barbie dolls for the night. It’s iconic, to say the least.

#18 Lola and Bugs

It couldn’t be a cute Halloween costume ideas list without including Lola and Bugs. These are some of my favorite-looking couple’s costumes. Also, who doesn’t want an excuse to wear a jersey and shorts to the bar or a party? They’re comfortable and cute, a win-win.

#19 Curious George and the Man in the Yellow Hat

If you want a fun couple’s Halloween costume that’s a bit more creative, go as Curious George and the Man in the Yellow Hat. This pairing is unexpected and more original. I haven’t seen it done a ton and these costumes are pretty adorable, to say the least.

#19 Bride and Chucky

If you and your significant other want a spookier costume, go as Chucky and the bride. It’s sexy, fun, and a bit scary. Grab some fake blood to take these costumes to the next level and to get some fun Halloween-themed couple’s pictures.

#20 Construction Workers

This costume idea is so easy, that no one really thinks of it. All you need are some construction vests and your outfits are complete. No, seriously…it’s that easy. Perfect for couples who want an affordable, simple, and easy costume to throw together last minute.

#21 Shark Bite Surfer and Lifeguard

Now this Halloween costume for college students takes a bit more planning, but it’s still fairly easy to assemble. You can be as basic or extravagant as you want when it comes to these couple’s costumes. Take your costumes to the next level with some fun props such as a lifeguard megaphone, a fake surfboard, and some fake blood to imitate the shark bite.

#22 Rachel and Ross

If you love the show Friends, you have to dress up as this famous pair. Rachel and Ross are a hilarious and comedic duo that is a bit more original. They’re lovers who always find their way back to each other, which could be a metaphor for your relationship as well, making them the perfect pair to dress up as for Halloween.

#23 Crocodile and Crocodile Hunter

This costume totally lets the woman shine. I’m obsessed with this crocodile costume. From the green wig, crocodile tale, and crocodile hat, this costume goes all out. It’s also a creative idea that isn’t done too often, making it great for couples who want to stand out on Halloween.

#24 Tinkerbell and Captain Hook

This wouldn’t be a cute Halloween costume ideas list if we didn’t include your classic fairytale characters. Tinkerbell and Captain Hook are iconic and yet make for adorable costume characters. Perfect for the good girl, bad boy pairing.

#25 Pokémon and Pikachu

Last on the list of fun couple’s costume ideas is Pokémon and Pikachu. I hadn’t thought about this pair before seeing it on Pinterest. It’s pretty adorable, I have to admit. All you need is a yellow shirt and Pikachu ears for her and a blue vest and red hat for him.


If you and your significant other are headed out to a college Halloween party or the bar for Halloween night, have fun deciding on a couple’s costume. You can be as creative or as simple as you want. Just remember to enjoy the night together and snag some photos to remember it!
