Elizabeth Reaser Talks about Shooting the 'Breaking Dawn' Wedding Scene.


mtv  "Well, the wedding scene was like a real wedding, in that it was stressful. It took a lot of planning, a lot of organization. That was stuff we were all dealing with [and it was like] you were planning a real wedding," ."And the nerves ... I mean, there was an added element of nervousness when we were shooting it, maybe because there were helicopters and people jumping out of trees with cameras, but it was definitely a heightened couple of days on set," she continued, alluding to the paparazzi who were stalking the set, hoping to capture the shoot before its official release. "It took several days to shoot, and at a certain point you don't want to be in a corset anymore."

"But it was really magical, and vampires aren't supposed to cry, and that created a real obstacle for all of us vampires," Reaser said. "Seeing Kristen walk down with aisle with [her movie dad] Billy Burke. I mean, seeing Billy Burke killed me. I understood in that moment what it's like to be a parent and seeing Kristen and see her really be nervous and see Rob really, really be nervous, and the two of them [together with] the families coming together; it was an emotional day for real."
