The Bridesmaids in This Beauty and the Beast Wedding Are Carrying Lanterns!

Brittany and Alan's story is straight out of a movie — they're childhood best friends and high school sweethearts. Beauty and the Beast has been Brittany's favorite Disney movie since she was a kid, so she had the wedding of her dreams that was themed after the film. Their aquarium nuptials featured silver and Alfred Angelo's "Once Upon a Time" blue, which twinkled against the reflections of the fish tanks. She even wore Belle's wedding gown by Alfred Angelo while Alan wore a dark blue tailcoat tux that was supposed to look like Beast's suit. Dancing to "Beauty and the Beast" sung by Mrs. Potts in the movie made her feel like a real-life princess.

The bridesmaids carried lit lanterns down the dim hallway, which ended up being Brittany's surprise presents to them. "They are my guiding lights, my northern stars, and this picture truly depicts what they mean to me being in my life," she told their photographer.

The perfume and cologne they wore on their New Year's wedding day, which you'll see in the photos, were given to each other on Christmas. See their wedding ahead!
