group costumes are either the most fun thing ever… or a total trainwreck. You’ve got one friend who wants to be “edgy,” another who insists on “something comfortable,” and then there’s always that person who shows up in jeans claiming they’re “dressed as themselves.” 🙄 But when it comes to the chaotic brilliance of a Kiss Marry Kill (KMK) theme, group costumes hit different.
I’ve tried this with my crew before, and honestly, it’s a riot. You get the perfect mix of ridiculousness, sass, and just enough awkwardness to make the night unforgettable. So if you’re ready to level up your Halloween, party, or even just a wild Friday, here are 14 group costume combinations for the ultimate Kiss Marry Kill look.
1. Classic Hollywood Icons
If you’re aiming for timeless but still fun, this one’s a winner.
- Kiss: Marilyn Monroe (the ultimate glam kiss vibe)
- Marry: Audrey Hepburn (classy, elegant, everyone’s dream partner)
- Kill: Cruella de Vil (sorry girl, but puppy-snatching is a dealbreaker)
Why it works: The contrast here is chef’s kiss. You’ve got glam, romance, and a touch of villainy all in one.
2. The Office Party Gone Wrong
Yes, you can absolutely KMK with corporate vibes.
- Kiss: The charming intern in a messy suit
- Marry: The reliable HR rep with a clipboard
- Kill: The boss who emails at 11:59 p.m.
Pro tip: Add exaggerated props (oversized coffee mugs, fake memos) to really sell it.
3. Fairy Tales with a Twist
Who said bedtime stories had to stay innocent?
- Kiss: Prince Charming (sparkly smile, questionable depth)
- Marry: Cinderella (she already handles housework and late-night Uber rides)
- Kill: The Big Bad Wolf (because duh, he eats grandmas)
This one’s extra fun because everyone already knows the characters. Recognition = instant laughs.
4. The Rock-Paper-Scissors Crew
Minimal effort, maximum chaos.
- Kiss: Paper (soft, sweet, low threat)
- Marry: Rock (solid, dependable, the “rock” of the group—pun intended)
- Kill: Scissors (sharp edges, bad vibes)
Ever noticed how people immediately argue over which one they would actually pick? That’s half the fun.
5. Superhero Showdown
Nothing screams “group costume” like superheroes.
- Kiss: Spider-Man (friendly, funny, flips around like nobody’s business)
- Marry: Captain America (loyal, reliable, all-American bae)
- Kill: Deadpool (funny, but exhausting in a relationship… trust me)
You’ll get bonus points if you lean into exaggerated comic book poses all night.
6. Fast Food Mascot Frenzy
Okay, tell me this wouldn’t be hilarious.
- Kiss: Wendy (she’s got that cute pigtail thing going on)
- Marry: Colonel Sanders (the man has a recipe for success—and fried chicken)
- Kill: Ronald McDonald (sorry clown lovers, but he’s nightmare fuel)
This one is guaranteed to be a photo-op goldmine.
7. The High School Cliques
We’ve all seen these in movies, now live them IRL.
- Kiss: The cheerleader (sparkly energy, a little unpredictable)
- Marry: The nerd (smart, probably rich in ten years)
- Kill: The bully (because no one wants that energy at the party)
IMO, this one hits especially hard if your group has different personalities to match.
8. Mythical Creatures
If you want something mystical but flexible, this is it.
- Kiss: Mermaid (beautiful, mysterious, occasionally salty)
- Marry: Unicorn (rare, magical, wholesome vibes)
- Kill: Dragon (because fire-breathing roommates don’t pay rent)
Plus, glitter. And who doesn’t love glitter? :)
9. The Reality TV Triangle
Reality TV stars already feel like KMK incarnate.
- Kiss: The Bachelor/Bachelorette contestant (dramatic, fleeting)
- Marry: The wholesome underdog from a cooking show
- Kill: The villain from any dating show (you know the one)
Extra points if you narrate your night like a confessional interview.
10. Villains, Heroes, and Anti-Heroes
This one’s flexible and lets everyone choose a role they vibe with.
- Kiss: Anti-hero (mysterious, morally gray, usually hot)
- Marry: Hero (classic, dependable, great jawline)
- Kill: Villain (sorry, but world domination is not “relationship goals”)
This works across fandoms—Marvel, DC, even Disney.
11. Music Legends
Bring out your inner rockstar.
- Kiss: Elvis Presley (because duh)
- Marry: Beyoncé (queen energy, end of discussion)
- Kill: A washed-up one-hit wonder (harsh but fair)
You can even build a playlist to match the vibe of your group costume.
12. Internet Meme Squad
Turn viral culture into wearable chaos.
-
Kiss: The “Distracted Boyfriend” girlfriend
-
Marry: The wholesome doge
-
Kill: The grumpy cat (I know, I know—don’t come for me)
This is for the crew that spends way too much time online (aka me).
13. Horror Movie Archetypes
Perfect if you want something darker.
- Kiss: The charming vampire (seductive but risky)
- Marry: The final girl (strong, resilient, low-key iconic)
- Kill: The creepy clown (need I explain?)
This combo is pure Halloween fuel.
14. Royals vs Rebels
Wrap it up with a regal showdown.
- Kiss: The rebellious knight (bad boy energy, armor optional)
- Marry: The queen/king (because who doesn’t want that crown?)
- Kill: The evil advisor (seriously, they’re always sketchy)
Capes, crowns, and drama? Count me in.
Final Thoughts
