By dip-dying her used wedding gown yellow and hiring models, she managed to bring Beauty and the Beast to life. Featuring a variety of well-loved characters from the movies like Chip, Cogsworth and Lumiere, Belle’s love for books, as well as the signature rose, every element of the movie was included.

This photo shoot was a magical mix of modern and classic. For example, the dress, which looked like a more modern take to the classic, signature yellow gown that Belle wore during the animated movie, with the sleeveless design and ombre colouring. Not only that, the decorations, though following that of the movie, also contains a modern touch that makes it stand out.

Like the invitation card above, with the decorated envelope that gives off that magical and classic feel, yet still being modern and simplistic. In accordance with the theme, the invitation card mentions ‘Be Our Guest’, which is one of the more iconic songs from the movie, as well as featuring a red rose which helps tie in the whole theme.

Besides that, this wedding cake above not only contains the theme of Beauty and the Beast with the red rose and yellow pearls that represent Belle’s gown, but also brings a touch of modern with the cake tier designs.

In addition to all the decorations that followed the theme of the photo shoot, Martellino also made sure that the location exuded the theme of Beauty and the Beast as well. From forests like the ones that were in the movies to the castle-looking location, it really helped bring the whole magical theme to life. It’s hard to believe that all this was taken in California!
