“Met u in October i had nothing to lose / dressed up like a country girl i’d knew you’d approve / knew i had to kiss you on the Halloween moon,” Stefani captioned the post.

The caption also served as lyrics to a song she sung in the last slide, played over a video of clouds rolling past the moon.

Other images in the upload included a close up photo of Stefani’s costume in its packaging, a selfie of her with Shelton that night and a field of flowers.
