Rainbow Wedding Cake with Fruit Slices

When thinking about a fun and festive wedding cake for your summer wedding, I say why limit yourself to just one or two colors?

Why not go for the entire rainbow?

Take this super fun cake for example – the four-tier cake would be real showstopper at your wedding. No one expects a wedding cake with rainbow stripes and fruit slice candy. Read More

Heck, they even make reality shows about it.

Look at this beauty! How often have you seen a black wedding cake? Sure we’ve featured black and white cakes here in the past, but nothing like this stunner. Read More

Wedding Cake with Lemon and Thyme

One of my all-time favorite summer flavors is lemon.

Whether it’s lemonade or lemon meringue pie, you can’t go wrong with lemon in summer.

Plus, their bright yellow color make everything more cheerful.

Perhaps this is why I’m loving this bright yellow lemon and thyme wedding cake.

The cake is a lemon-thyme base and in between the tiers are alternate layers of lemon curd and vanilla buttercream – two flavors that pair deliciously. Read More

We’ve all been there. You’re a guest at an outdoor wedding in the middle of the summer and it’s hot and you’re melting in your seat.

Out of desperation (and perspiration) you start using your smart phone or purse as a fan, wishing you had a real fan instead.

Well, wouldn’t it be nice to give your guests a way to keep cool and look cool at the same time? That’s where these very cute and very functional sandalwood fans come into play!

These fans are made from natural wood and are carved with an intricate design – and they’re perfect for cooling off at your outdoor summer wedding! The fans feature a white tassel and can also be personalized with a custom label.

They’re such a great favor idea, and your guests will thank you!

You can find the fans here.

It’s been a while since we featured any cupcakes, so I thought it was time to find a fun and festive wedding cupcake to share.

I have to say this bouquet-inspired cupcake is almost too pretty to eat. Almost.

The cupcake would be ideal at a smaller wedding reception, or even as an accompaniment to your full-size wedding cake. It would be a great wedding favor for your guests to take home too – packaged in “take home” containers. So cute. Read More

Now that we are officially celebrating all things summer, our thoughts turn to beaches and summer weddings.

Which brings me to today’s beach-y wedding cake, complete with adorable mini Adirondak chairs as the cake topper.

I love the stark simplicity of the white fondant icing – it really creates a perfect palette to create lovely cake-scapes.

But what makes this cake perfect for your summer beach wedding are the incredible decorations. Read More

Fun Wedding Favors – Coffee Beans

As a coffee fan, I have to admit I would love to receive roasted coffee beans as a wedding favor.

It’s such a fun favor and shows that the bride and groom really wanted to give their guests a gift they’ll actually enjoy.

I found these favors on Etsy from AproposRoasters located in Richmond, Virginia. The coffee beans are fresh roasted and each personalized package contains enough beans to be ground for one pot of coffee.

If you don’t want to give whole beans, you can also choose ground coffee that’s ready to be brewed by your guests as soon as they arrive home!

The packaging can be personalized with your choice of ink color, custom stamp, and each paper wrapped package is tied with twine. (The coffee is packaged in glassine bags to ensure freshness.
