Did you see Monday’s post with our Fairy Tale Little Mermaid wedding details?! (HERE) Now we have Part 2 for you with more of our amazing bride and groom and ideas for your princess-inspired/beach/nautical/coral & teal wedding!
A year ago, I combined my love of Disney princesses with my wedding photography to help inspire brides today who wanted to create a modern and elegant wedding inspired by elements of Fairy Tales! After producing a Snow White, Sleeping Beauty & Beauty & the Beast weddings we’ve now created an amazing nautical/beach wedding with some great touches from our favorite, The Little Mermaid!! I didn’t want to do a ‘beach’ wedding per se and really wanted it to speak to the love story between Ariel & Eric. I wanted to incorporate touches of Ariel’s love for humans, while also including their new world together….while also having touches of ‘the sea’! With the help of some amazing vendors and friends, we headed to a beach in beautiful Malibu, CA – fought the crowds and set up a mini wedding!!!
I hope these details inspire you to dream big and design your wedding using modern and classy details!! Congratulations to all you Disney brides out there – let us know what you think!!
This coral tie is amazing…look close, it’s a paisley inspired OCTOPUS! Just a little nod to Ursula 😉
Ryan wanted to get in on the ‘comb my hair with a dinglehopper’ action 😉
Can you find our ‘funny’ on this menu card created by Matinae Design Studio?!
Little Mermaid perfect shoes!!! These crystals were gorgeous and constantly changing from teal to green to yellow to coral!
This gorgeous Maggie Sottero & Amalee Accessory belt were such a modern concept for a ‘mermaid’ style gown don’t you think?!?!

Excellent as usual. Was the surprise that MAINE lobster was misspelled on the menu????
Every detail was captured! I had to look at them several times and every time I saw something I
missed the first time!!! My favorite is the Amalee belt then starfish on cake and on suit!
Unbelieveble….like always! Congrats on the pick up by Disney.
What an amazing location for a wedding. Really great photos.
