"Breaking Dawn" inspired photo shoot

I am so excited about the photos I am about to show you today. My wonderful friend Melissa from Truly Chic put together a "Breaking Dawn" (part of the Twilight series) inspired photo to show her interpretation of the BIG Cullen wedding, which will be in theaters on November 18, 2011.

Here is what Melissa had to say...

I (Truly Chic Inspirations) planned this photo shoot alongside Sandy from Firefly Confections.  We are both avid Twilight fans and our inspiration came from the Breaking Dawn wedding.  We were lucky enough to team up with such a talented photographer, Janelle from Janelle's Photography, who made our vision come to life.  Janelle not only captured our vision but incorporated the perfect model for this shoot.  

  Using the last name "Cullen" was key for us.  The "Cullen" crest cookies were created by Sandy (Firefly Confections), the "Cullen" cake banner was created by Meli from Blush + Jelly, and the "Cullen" crest wine label was created especially for us by Sandy's mother.  

  We didn't want this to be all about deep reds and black so we took some time in finding white and silver touches to give more elegance to the wedding theme.  The wedding invitation and place cards were must have items and Kristina of Uptown Girl Designs gave us an amazing design (she is a fellow Twilight fanatic as well).

  I was lucky to come across the vintage photos and candle sticks at an antique flea market while on vacation this summer and Sandy took some time in finding the perfect plates.

  Sandy and I are beyond thrilled with the results of our shoot and couldn't be more thankful to the ladies that joined us in the process.

A big thank you to Melissa for sharing these images with me. I am totally inspired and can't wait until November 18th to see Breaking Dawn in Theaters!!
