A Glamourous Affair

Monday, September 12th, 2011

This next wedding is pure beauty! The couple is gorgeous, the location is divine, and the vendors they picked for their wedding pulled out all the stops! Emily Faulknor Photography captured this lovely San Diego wedding and I even got to partner and work with my best girlfriends Karrie & Elizabeth from Posh Paperie who did all the fabulous invitations and paper design!

For the desserts and cake we were really excited to create something amazing! The client loved a previous backdrop that Jesi Haack Design had created for us, so she actually had her father recreate it and I think it turned out great!

I loved working on this new cake design that we did…it was bold, yet elegant!

It took me quite a lot of time to do so much detail on it, but the final product was definitely worth it!

Rustic Dream Wedding

Monday, December 20th, 2010

I am so excited to share these gorgeous photos with you from Wildflowers Photography! When I saw them for the first time I was completely in love with every detail from this wedding. Hayley and I both happen to know the bride, Whitney, from high school so it was such a joy to get to be a part of her wedding day! I think they designed every aspect of this wedding brilliantly and I hope you enjoy looking at the photos as much as I do!

The Ace Hotel

Wednesday, October 6th, 2010

I had the pleasure of being a guest at the Ace Hotel in Palm Springs this last summer for my good friend’s Molly & Donovan’s wedding at the O’Donnell Golf Club! The whole weekend was tons of fun and a weekend that I’ll remember for a long time! My husband was in the wedding and my good girlfriend’s Ashlyn and Heather from Carter & Cook Event Co did the wedding planning and design. The lovely Windy Dougall shot the gorgeous photos and The Floral Lab did an amazing job with the flowers! I was especially in love with Molly’s bouquet! This wedding was lucky enough to be featured on Style Me Pretty today as well, so make sure and check it out to see all the fun details!

French Inspired Photo Shoot

Wednesday, September 15th, 2010

I recently had the pleasure of working with Joy de Vivre, Florette Designs, & Michael & Anna Costa on a French inspired photo shoot that was featured on Style Me Pretty! I was blown away when I saw the gorgeous photos and really loved how it all turned out! It was great working with such talented vendors & I thought they did an amazing job.

For the wedding cake I was really inspired by a wedding dress that was completely covered in white lace & doilies with an underlying color. I knew someday I wanted to recreate it in cake and this was the perfect opportunity. We covered the base of the cake in a light peach color and then tediously cut out individual fondant lace pieces that were added to the cake. It was definitely a labor of love, but I have to say I loved the finish product.

Chanel Photoshoot

Monday, May 24th, 2010

I was seriously blown away when I first saw these images that Jasmine Star took at a recent photoshoot I did with a bunch of FABULOUS ladies from the wedding industry. The lovely Jaclyne of Heavenly Blooms asked me to be a part of the shoot and I was so excited once I heard the design for it. She planned a flawless photoshoot along with the help from the talented Amanda from In the Now. So many wonderful vendors came together to make this photoshoot such a gorgeous experience…thanks for letting me be a small part of it! The look for the day was a Chanel inspired bridal shower & I’m sure it won’t disappoint you! To check out more design details about the shoot check out our post on Style Me Pretty!

Recently I have had the pleasure of doing a lot of amazing photoshoots, but sadly sometimes I can squeeze it all in, so when they asked it I could do a mini dessert bar as well as the cake I unfortunately had to pass since I already was booked up that week. I was so happy when I heard that Jay’s Catering was going to do the dessert bar though and I have to say that they knocked it out of the park! Their macaroon tower & Parisian style desserts were so dreamy!

For the cake my sister and I wanted to mimic the style of old mosser glass cake stands & platters and accented it with jewels & buttons inspired by Chanel. I also created a gorgeous pink sugar flower garden rose for the top of the cake, but sadly it got broken on delivery, so instead we placed ruffle flowers at the top of the cake. Overall I still really liked how the cake turned out, but it was a little sad to have my flower I worked so hard on not get photographed.

The details and planning that went into this shoot are amazing and it really shows in all of these photos!

How cute is the menu from Oh Lovely Day!

I have to say that the ladies for the shoot were straight out of a magazine…

Love, love, love the different settings for the shoot….eating dessert, testing perfume, opening gifts!

And here are the rest of the AMAZING vendors who participated in the day!

High School Sweethearts

Thursday, March 11th, 2010

I have definitely been waiting a while to be able to post this wedding! Right from the start I was super excited to work with this particular bride & groom because I actually had the pleasure of going to high school with both of them! I was student body president and Ashley was president of her freshman class…to say the least we hit it off perfectly the first time we met during student council meetings. My husband even ended up playing soccer with her husband Tommy too! I absolutely love being able to make wedding cakes for people I know and help them celebrate their special day! Ashley & her mother have amazing style and are incredibly gorgeous, so I knew the wedding would be one for the books…and boy was I right! They hired on an amazing team of vendors including Brooke Keegan, as the wedding planner, Aaron Delesie, who took the amazing photos, and Annette Gomez did the incredible floral decor!

Since this wedding will inspire and probably leave you wanting to know more I highly recommend checking out Style Me Pretty’s feature as well which gives lots and lots of details! And just a warning…Ashley will most definitely make you jealous of her beauty so beware!

For the wedding cake Ashley wanted something elegant and dreamy! She loved the idea of having sugar pearls and sugar crystals on the cake and her mother also found a vintage bride & groom cake topper, which I adored! We decided on add one large sugar peony and let the cake rest of a simple clear cake stand, as if it was floating on nothing at all.

I wish Ashley & Tommy all the blessings in the whole and absolutely love that they live right by my bakery so they can pop in and say hi once in a while!
