But now The Range shoppers have been left horrified by a decorations that looks VERY rude – and the image will leave you giggling.
The shocking décor depicts an animated bride and groom, both as skeletons and dressed in vintage-style wedding attire.
According to the retailer, the pricey £129.99 decoration features light-up eyes and releases sounds to create an eerie atmosphere in any festive setting.
Online, the spooky bride – who also has some flowers attached to the veil – can be seen pulling the groom’s head upwards, as he’s standing on his knees.
However, one shopper, Therese Ryan, was recently left blushing after she spotted the 5’11ft decoration in person – and it looked totally different.
Taking to TikTok, Therese said she ”didn’t know what to think”, as she wondered ”what the hell is going on here”.
Unlike in the photos posted on the website, the groom’s head was still attached – however, the rather unfortunate placement made it look as if the couple needed to have some ”privacy”, people joked.
As the bride was holding the groom’s head right by her ‘private parts’, TikTokers chuckled and said Theresa had ”caught them a having a moment”.
Baffled by what she was seeing, the shopper wondered: ”Is it me or does this look a bit weird?
”I don’t actually know what’s going on,” she couldn’t some laughing.
”Do you think I should tell the staff?” the customer said.
”Anyway, maybe that’s my rude mind.”
Sharing the hilarious find on her page, Theresa wrote in the caption: ”Cracked me up!”
Posted just two days ago, the hilarious blunder has already taken the internet by storm, winning Theresa close to 220k views and a whopping 13.5k likes.
What to do if your child wants to wear a revealing Halloween costume
Chartered psychologist Dr Louise Goddard-Crawley says: “Addressing a situation where a 14-year-old wants to wear a revealing Halloween costume can be challenging for parents, especially when they might feel torn between respecting their teenager’s independence and feeling concerned about the implications of such an outfit.
It’s understandable for parents to feel protective and anxious about societal pressures or how their child may be perceived, especially during a time when setting boundaries feels crucial.
For Lisa, it’s also important to empathise with the daughter, who is at an age where she’s exploring her identity, testing limits, and figuring out how to express herself.
The goal is not to shame the choice, but to help teenagers understand the context and potential impact of their clothing. Parents can start by approaching the conversation with curiosity and openness, rather than judgement. For example, they can be curious about what their child likes about the costume and why it appeals to them.
Use this as an opportunity to discuss topics like consent, self-respect, and how different outfits can influence others’ perceptions.
Perhaps offering alternatives that still feel exciting, but strike a balance between style and appropriateness can be helpful.
By acknowledging your own feelings and validating your daughter’s perspective, you can foster a balanced dialogue that hopefully respects her need for autonomy while also guiding her towards making thoughtful choices.
Essentially, it’s not about shutting down your daughter’s choices, but helping her find a way to express herself that feels right for both of you. Maybe you could work together to find a fun, creative costume that still feels empowering.
More than 350 people flooded to comments in total disbelief, with one writing: ”I saw this in my local range too and thought someone rearranged them as a joke.”
”As someone who worked for the range years ago. I think the staff are probably the ones who did it,” a former employee chimed in.
”I was looking at the price at first till you moved the camera,” a third commented.
”I’m glad you thought that too. I saw this on Monday and that’s where my mind went too,” a fellow TikToker added.
