PyTest with a single django model creation

I use a mixer to create my model and run them with pytest. All I want to do is generate my model only once and run several tests with the same model that I generate.

Here is what I want:

the code

import pytest
from mixer.backend.django import mixer
from weddings.models import Wedding


@pytest.mark.django_db
class TestProductApi(object):

    @pytest.fixture(scope="module")
    def wedding(self):
        wedding = mixer.blend(
            'weddings.Wedding',
        )
        mixer.cycle(12).blend(
            'weddings.Product',
            wedding=wedding,
        )

        mixer.cycle(4).blend(
            'weddings.Product',
            wedding=wedding,
            is_visible=False,
        )

        mixer.blend(
            'weddings.Product',
            wedding=wedding,
            is_active=False,
        )
        return wedding

    def test_number_one(self, wedding):
        print 'running test_number_one'
        print 'wedding.id == {}'.format(wedding.id)
        print 'Wedding.objects.all().count() == {}'.format(Wedding.objects.all().count())
        print 'finished test_number_one'

    def test_number_two(self, wedding):
        print 'running test_number_two'
        print 'wedding.id == {}'.format(wedding.id)
        print 'Wedding.objects.all().count() == {}'.format(Wedding.objects.all().count())
        print 'finished test_number_two'

Output

tests/weddings/api/test_products.pyTestProductApi.test_number_one                                                        0%           running test_number_one
wedding.id == 1
Wedding.objects.all().count() == 1
finished test_number_one
 tests/weddings/api/test_products.pyTestProductApi.test_number_one ✓                                                     50% █████
 tests/weddings/api/test_products.pyTestProductApi.test_number_two                                                       50% █████     running test_number_two
wedding.id == 1
Wedding.objects.all().count() == 0
finished test_number_two

What I do in my tests is not so important, however I want all of them to start with the same created object wedding. When I run my tests, every time I create a test, a new one is created wedding.

Here is the version of what I'm using:
pytest==2.7.1
pytest-django==2.9.1
Django==1.8.8
mixer==5.3.1
python==2.7.6

EDIT 1 . I also tried to add an area to my device, but this only works for the first test. If I make a request in the second test, the model does not exist, even if the device works fine.

2: scope="module" .
