Congratulations to Haylee & Nick!!  I've been looking forward to Haylee & Nick's wedding cake for months! It was such a unique cake, and I love being able to do something completely different. Haylee brought me a picture of a cake she'd seen in a magazine, but it was completely different colors. She also liked a photo of another cake I've done in the past with a pleated look of dress fabric, so we customized the cake and combined both cake designs, changing the colors to fit her color scheme, and added some other personal touches. Haylee's colors were this beautiful deep purple, white, and a pewter color. All the flowers on the cake are made from fondant, and there were a lot of them! There were different styles of roses as well as carnations, daisies, and what we call "fantasy flowers", which are flowers of no exact variety or species. The majority of the flowers were done in the white fondant with random deep purple flowers here and there. I love the added touch Haylee came up with by wanting to add 2 "lovebirds" on the cake. We made those from fondant in a little bit deeper shade of purple than the flowers and gave them feathered tails. They held their reception at one of my all-time favorite venues, Thanksgiving Point. The room they had the reception in overlooks Thanksgiving Point's immaculate and expansive gardens and gives everyone in the room a fantastic view. It's such a beautiful backdrop. The reception decor was chic, elegant, and very well done! The cake fit in so perfectly with every other detail....and let me tell you there were some amazing details! I think Haylee chose a perfect cake style to meld the chic and classic look of her reception but still added the soft and organic touches with the flowers and birds. This cake definitely goes up there with one of my absolute faves! I want to thank Haylee & Nick for choosing me to be part of their beautiful wedding day! Congrats again to both of them and I wish them all the happiness in the world as they start their new lives together! |
