Origami Cake!

Click on photos to enlarge images!

A simple two tier cake baked and iced by My Sweet Wedding Cakes was brought to life with intricately folded origami flowers of ice blue, silver frost, and ivory snow.  Lisa and Michael had originally dreamed of a week long summer wedding celebration in New Zealand, where Lisa resides, but an endearing story of love and compassion and life's unexpected circumstances shifted their wedding to Utah. Lisa and her mother selected the perfect color palette, creating a Winter Wonderland filled with warmth and love that enveloped every guests. Not even New Zealand could have been more wonderful!

Origami Bouquet!

This bouquet was only one of the perfectly amazing elements of Lisa and Michael's wedding this past Thursday. Lisa made her own bouquet with hand folded origami flowers in a soft palette of blue, silver and ivory, embellished with clear gems and pearls. Her Maid of Honor carried a smaller version of the bride's bouquet, and each of the honored guests of the wedding party wore unique variations of paper flower corsages and boutonnieres. So Stunning!

Simply Simple!

Sometimes the simplest of ideas turn out to be simply incredible. Keeping to a simple color theme of red, yellow and black even the tiniest details became statements! Yummy cupcakes and an exciting sundae bar created an atmosphere that shouted we are here to have fun! Guests couldn't help but celebrate with the newlyweds as they began their bright and beautiful lives together!

A WIZ of a Wedding!

Dressed as the tinman from the Wizard of OZ, the groom pulled a heart shaped box from his armour and on bended knee proposed to his bride to be! The rest of the wedding continued with an Emerald City theme. Tiny ants carrying moss tufts and gerber daisies lined the aisle. An ecletic collection of oil cans made interesting centerpieces. The adorable flower girl pauses for a moment to recapture her felted flower bouquet before continuing down the yellow brick road in front of the bride.

Vintage pieces of jewelry added a fashionable touch to this Monet style cake. Cameo medallions embossed two of the tiers, while a doille lace fondant band with a pearl essence encircled the bottom tier.
