If you and your boo (see what we did there?) are on the hunt for the best couple costumes for Halloween 2024, you’ve knocked on the right door, so to speak. Whether you’re getting gussied up to take the kids trick-or-treating, making your relationship debut at a Halloween party, or hoping to win the local costume contest, you can pull together these easy couple Halloween costume ideas at the last minute using a combination of DIY ingenuity, items from your closet, and a few new or thrifted purchases.
If you’re looking for funny couple costumes, try a clever pun costume for two, like Green with Envy, or dress up as an iconic ’80s duo (Molly Ringwald and Duckie, perhaps?!) If you prefer something a tad more quirky and unique, how about a spot-on sartorial ode to a country song, such as Alan Jackson’s nostalgic ’90s hit “Chattahoochee,” complete with a pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight. (The song’s stuck in your head now, isn’t it?)
If you’re a big fan of DIY Disney costumes, consider a classic duo like Aladdin and Jasmine or Ariel and Flounder. If you’re more into Dutton family dynamics, boot it on over to our Yellowstone costume guide. With so many options, you’re all set to have a magical and memorable October 31st! Oh, and don’t forget to post the final look on Instagram along with an ingenious Halloween caption.
Here’s more Halloween costume inspiration:
“Something Like That” Country Music Couple’s Costume
You know the song “Something Like That”by Tim McGraw. Well, the chorus pretty much makes this country music-inspired costume! Check out that BBQ stain on the white T-shirt on him and the mini skirt and red lipstick on her. (Suntan lines: optional!)

Scarecrow Couple Costume
To twirl up a scare crow outfit, start with typical farmer attire (jeans, plaid shirt, boots, suspenders) and a straw hat and stuffing around collar, sleeve openings, and spilling from pockets. Try the kind of straw from the craft store, not real hay that can be super itchy. Face paint for nose and mouth optional, but it does add a realistic finishing touch.

Superhero Couple Costume
It’s true that not all superheroes wear capes, but on Halloween, this parent pair wears them well. Blue athletic shorts, red socks, and shirts adorned with a star make up the base of this outfit. Capes and masks take it to the next level. Editor tip: Use an oversize t-shirt to make a cape. Cut off front and sleeves, leaving the back and collar in tact. Slip the collar over your head and the shirt back will serve as the cape.

Thermos & Smokey the Bear Camp Couple Costume
When it comes to this group getup, we say the s’more, the merrier! But if you want to keep it to a couple, simply pair a plaid thermos with Smokey.
For the thermos:
Print out an oversize plaid print on large poster paper at your local printing/shipping store. Wrap it around your body, securing it shut with staples or double-sided tape. Next, wrap a thick grosgrain ribbon around your neck and secure the free ends to the poster paper with a stapler. Hot-glue a thermos lid to a plain plastic headband.
For Smokey:
Start with a plain brown sweater or sweatshirt, jeans, and duck boots. Personalize a ranger-style hat with sticker letters and carry a shovel. (Alternatively, you can wear a Smokey the Bear mask.)

“Chattahoochee” Couple Costume
Continuing the country music costume theme, Alan Jackson’s “Chattahoochee” is basically synonymous with the summer of 1993. If that era is nostalgic for you and your sidekick, then this riff on the famous music video and lyrics is for you two spring chickens.
For the skiier (aka Alan himself!): Don ripped jeans, a vintage-looking life vest, cowboy hat, boots, and a slalom ski, which you can find on eBay. If desired, pair with a burger and a grape sno-cone, as the song goes.
For the “pyramid of cans in the pale moonlight”: Empty and rinse out six beer cans (any brand will do), then hot-glue cans in a pyramid shape to a solid-colored t-shirt. Cut out a moon shape from glitter cardstock, then secure to a headband with hot glue. Embellish the base with assorted metallic stars.
