Couture Engagements

This gorgeous Beauty and the Beast shoot & proposal took place at the Valentino Estate in Rancho Santa Fe, CA. The bride, Chelsey, LOVES Disney and her boyfriend, Matt, asked Sara France Photography & Couture Events to create an inspiration shoot that would be a disney dream come true for Chelsey! We had so much fun keeping the proposal a secret while making this amazing inspiration a reality! 
We could not do it on our own, so we brought in some fabulous vendors to help create this fairytale!

This proposal was featured on Disney Fairytale Weddings Blog!

Tale as old as time
True as it can be
Barely even friends
Then somebody bends
Unexpectedly

Just a little change
Small to say the least
Both a little scared
Neither one prepared
Beauty and the Beast

Ever just the same
Ever a surprise
Ever as before
Ever just as sure
As the sun will rise

***Little did she know that her ring was sitting right next to her during the whole shoot hidden inside of the bottom book! While she used the top book as a prop to read, she would have never guessed the velvet bookmark on the book below marked the spot  where her ring laid in carved out pages.

THE FAIRYTALE PROPOSAL

He grabbed the red book and dropped to one knee.

She smiles, oh what could this be…

This is the moment she realizes this is a real proposal ( not just for the photo shoot) !

She said YES !!!

IT’S A FAIRYTALE DREAM COME TRUE!

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Bitter sweet and strange
Finding you can change
Learning you were wrong

Certain as the sun
Rising in the East
Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the Beast

Tale as old as time
Song as old as rhyme
Beauty and the beast

This amazing COUTURE couple is getting married one month from TODAY!

Bryan of Bryan N Miller Photography did an incredible job of capturing Robin & Neil’s personalities and love for each other!

Robin, Neil, and I go way back! I grew up with Robin in the small suburb of Jamul, CA  (she is also now my hair stylist) and I met Neil when he was in Jr. High ! We now all go to the same church, All Peoples, and I am so honored that they hired Couture Events as their wedding coordinators! We are going to create an incredible warehouse wedding for them, while incorporating their unique personalities by using textures, fabrics, chalkboards, burlap, and lace ! Love these two, their hearts, and their engagement photos!

Meet Neil

Meet Robin

 

Did I mention THEY LOVE TO DANCE ?

Soon to be Mr. & Mrs. FOX

Can’t wait for their wedding coming up on April 21, 2012!
