sTORIbook Weddings Episode Tonight: A Marie Antoinette Wedding

Tuesday, December 27th, 2011

A couple months back we had the pleasure of doing two of the weddings for Tori & Dean’s new show sTORIbook Weddings and we are excited to announce that the final wedding we worked on with them is airing for the first time TONIGHT December 27th at 10/9c on the Oxygen Network. I have to say that this is my favorite wedding yet that we got to be a part of and we made a TON of desserts and cakes for it! The theme was Marie Antoinette and we pulled out all the stops for it. I even had a fun time filming a private cake tasting at Tori & Dean’s house for the bride and groom, which will be on the show tonight too.

We created a 5 tier dusty blue cake with lots of gold accents that was set on a table all by itself…

Heavenly Blooms created the over-the-top gorgeous flowers for the big wedding day!

Like I said, we pulled out all the stops for the grand mini dessert table that had multiple single tier decorated cakes as well.

The Vibiana was the perfect location for this over the top gorgeous wedding and provided such a lovely backdrop for our table.

I loved the color scheme for this wedding and it was so fun to incorporate it into our desserts…the blue and gold worked perfectly for this french macaron tower.

Tori & Dean did a fabulous job of decorating the whole venue! I loved the table set up and details…

Can you say over the top luxury!

Thanks so much for checking out our desserts and we hope that you tune in tonight to see the full episode!

A Gorgeous Rustic, Elegant Wedding at The Villa!

Thursday, December 22nd, 2011

I am just in love with this next wedding that I got to be a part of! The couple are good friends of Carissa, from JL Designs, who did all the floral design and clearly you can tell that they are have fabulous taste! They wanted their wedding design to be early southern california history mixed with some masculine texan details. I love the rich color scheme and the rustic touches here and there. The talented Ashley Rose photographed the whole wedding and I love think the photos are dreamy! The Villa at San Juan Capistrano was the fantastic venue it was held at.

Some of gorgeous rentals, like this table for the dessert bar, were from Found Vintage Rentals…they are the best!

They had a special family recipe they wanted us to recreate which was a fun addition to the mini dessert bar.

For the cake we wanted to do something clean and modern, but also look rich and elegant. We stuck with the white and gold color scheme and I decided to paint fondant braids gold and use them to wrap around the cake tiers. Then we did a white ruffle sugar flower with a large gold center.

Chevron Patterns & Lots of Succulents!

Tuesday, October 25th, 2011

I have to say one of my favorite new trends that started this past year or two was the love of succulents and the chevron pattern! I am totally a clean, modern type of girl so this wedding is speaking my love language! I had the pleasure of working with the fabulously talented Carissa, from JL Designs yet again who did the amazing floral and event design. The wedding was held at the Luxe Hotel in Bel Air and LRS Event Planning helped the day come together beautifully! I love all the gorgeous photos Meg Perotti shot and can’t wait to work with her again!

This has to be one of my favorite dessert set ups from last year. I love my new clear stands…they showcase the desserts perfectly!

Smog Shop Wedding

Monday, May 9th, 2011

I absolutely LOVE working with Angle Swanson from Love and Splendor on weddings! Her clients always have such amazing design and are equally as sweet! This wedding that we got to do at The Smog Shoppe was so much fun. We did an eclectic style dessert bar with some natural woodsy elements and then even got to make a crazy groom’s cake too…

Key Lime Pies are definitely one of the top sellers for weddings!

HollyFlora did the lovely florals at this wedding and I have to say they were just breathtaking!

I love using clear glass rentals and domes for set ups…the texture on the glass is just so great!

The Smog Shoppe always has wonderful details that make the photos pop even more.

Angel out does herself every time with her design elements she incorporates into each wedding she does…check out this amazing hanging installment she did!

This was the first time we tried make the “Hot Choco Spoons” for a wedding and I heard they were quite a hit!

The little succulent flower pots are so adorable as favors and double as their seating arrangement.

Isn’t this sketch of the couple fabulous too!

Last, but not least the crazy groom’s cake we promised. The clients both shared a love of collecting these Japanese toy bears that come in all different designs and for the groom’s cake the bride surprised her husband with the wood style Be@rbrick Doll done in cake! You can check out the real doll here.
