Ken and Barbie Get Married

I came across these pictures over at glamour.com and thought they were sooo cute! Growing up, playing with Barbie dolls as a child, I can really appreciate the creativity that was put into this entire concept of a Ken and Barbie wedding.  French photographer Beatrice de Guigne did this "photo shoot" over a series of three days.  She spent two hours each day setting up the shoot which consisted of her propping the dolls up long enough to snap the shots. She said that she spent five minutes on each pose and when it was all said and done she had sore knees, back, and elbows.  I can imagine!  Along with this "fairytale" shoot, Beatrice created a fairytale storyline to go along with it:
After 50 years of dating, America's favorite couple, Ken and Barbie, finally tied the knot.  Barbie got tired of waiting on Ken to pop the question, so she went ahead and asked him for his hand in marriage.  The couple got married at Faraway Castle in Plasticity. As for the wedding attire, Barbie got her gown from The Fairy Godmother Shop and her shoes from the Cinderella Shop.  Ken got his wedding attire from The Prince Charming Emporium.
Too cute! I am literally tickled pink looking at all of these shots, lol!  Check out the pictures from Ken and Barbie's wedding album:

While the bride was getting ready, Ken was also getting ready with help from his groomsmen

One last finishing touch

This groom is ready to go meet his bride

Check out the shoes

As usual, it took much longer for the bride to get ready because she had to get her hair done prior to getting dressed.  She and her hairstylist discuss how they are going to style her hair.

The bride opted for something simple, yet elegant, with a single braid to the side.

The newly married couple!

The happy couple pictured with their bridal party.  Ken and Barbie had a very non-traditional wedding where the bridal party sat during the ceremony and the bride and groom sat down with one bridesmaid, while the rest of the bridal party stood, for the wedding party pictures.

Beautiful couple
