Lots of New Weddings

Wednesday, April 14th, 2010

We have been busy bees over at the shop these last few months and that means lots of WEDDINGS! Here are a couple lovely weddings that we have had the pleasure of working on! This first wedding at Rancho Las Lomas was for the sweetest couple and I loved that they sent photos back to me so I could see them enjoying the desserts!

We made the custom cake stand and backdrop for the couple. They wanted to incorporate a rustic and earthy touch to the table, but still wanted it to look elegant. They decided to do a two tier cake and then cupcakes, so guests could choose which one they wanted.

This next wedding I had the pleasure of working with Carissa from JL Designs & Christina from Simply Modern Weddings. We ended up doing a small cake that pulled in design from their invitation and then a variety of mini desserts. Christina & Carissa definitely pulled off a gorgeous wedding with lovely details!

The flowers that Carissa & her assistant Darcy did were so romantic!

Loved all of Christina’s cute signs she added to the table.

Here is a rare shot of us ladies after we set up and a couple fun photos of the sweet husbands who came along to help!

So blessed to work with you ladies! Here is one more fun wedding cake I was able to do recently for a sweet couple. They wanted to incorporate color onto the cake, so we did a butter yellow base with dark grey lace accents and a purple sugar flower accent.

I recently had the pleasure of working with my friends Ashlyn & Heather from Carter & Cook Event Co. on a photoshoot for Exquisite Wedddings Magazine. They are an amazing design team and I knew the photoshoot would turn out gorgeous. You can check out their blog to read about all the details of the shoot, but here are some photos!

More Random Events

Sunday, May 25th, 2008

Here is the last batch of random photos from my crazy week. I did an order for a baby shower office party and they wanted cookies that were stars and cars. As you can see from the photo I didn’t really do the realistic route, but made it more cartoon-like. For that same order I also did chocolate cupcakes with vanilla buttercream. I colored the buttercream to match the cookie colors and then added a lime green fondant accent. And lastly they order 24 mini key lime pies…these are definitely one of my favorites.

I also had a cupcake wedding last weekend…yes, one day before my friend’s wedding! The bride had quite a colorful wedding and wanted 5 colors combined in the cupcake order…orange, deep pink, deep purple, turquoise, and sage green. She sent me over a photo of with the sample colors and they looked quite pretty together…very vibrant and colorful. I don’t have tons of photos of the order since I was so crunched for time and also since I had my assistant deliver the cupcakes for me. However one of my friends who was at the wedding snapped a photo of the cupcakes for me, so I thought I would post it. My brother-in-law made this cupcake tower for me and this was the first time I tried it out. Each tier comes apart and there are actually four more tiers that could go on it if I wanted it for a bigger event. Here is also a photo of one of the color schemes on some cupcakes. They had purple heart fondant accents with their initials “I+M” on it.
