Looking for a venue?

Here are 3 ideas on choosing venue Ideas
1. Create a comparison chart to track what’s included in the price for each venue you’re considering. One company may not include linens and the cake, for example, while another company does.

2. Many public spaces, like parks or the local village green, may be available to rent at a low fee. However, if the space is not equipped to handle events, you’ll have to rent everything from napkins to tables and chairs. Make sure you come out ahead!

3. Choose an unusual venue, such as an aquarium, a zoo, a gallery or an historical site. Site fees are not high and you’ll save on decor because the venue already supplies ambiance. But the same caveat goes as for public spaces: Figure in what you’ll have to spend on rentals. Wouldn’t a leppard or zibra make a great groom’s cake?

What does every 16 year old want? A car, an I-phone and a day of shopping with a stop at the “Pink Store”
That is we tried to portray on her birthday cake.

The Winter Wonderland out my office window is making it hard to design my polar bear cake. What I want right now is a sleigh and some wee ones to help me enjoy it. Or a horse to ride thru the woods and see all the beauty God has sent our way.
Where should I place my Wedding Cake?
November 18, 2011 By Leave a Comment
Most brides spend a lot of time on their cake design… deciding which colors and flavors it should be, figuring out how it should reflect the couple’s individual style or theme, and seeing what can be used as inspiration (perhaps the lace applique on the bride’s gown?). However, on the wedding day, the cake often gets relegated to a corner of the room and forgotten about until it’s time to cut the cake at the end of the night.
I say, give your gorgeous cake the placement it deserves! With my brides, I often place the cake table front and center at the reception, where all guests will see it as they enter the room. You can also set it up behind the sweetheart table as a beautiful backdrop. Have a spotlight on the cake or place several candles around it so that it can’t be missed—and serves as part of the room décor.
The word “wed” is derived from……

…..the ancient Greek word for “pledge.” And that’s exactly what a wedding is, no matter what country it takes place in, no matter what culture it’s part of. To wed is to pledge yourself to another. There are few acts we perform that are more pure or more beautiful than the act of marriage.

The purpose of a wedding cake
July 1, 2011 By Leave a Comment
The three-tier wedding cake is based on the unusual shape of the spire of Saint Bride’s Church in London.- The bride and groom make the first cut of the wedding cake to signify sharing their life together.
- Every guest then eats at least a crumb of the cake to ensure good luck.
- And if a single woman sleeps with a piece of wedding cake under her pillow, she will dream of her future husband.
- The wedding cake, to be shared by the newlyweds and their guests, signifies the “breaking of the kinship.”
- The brides knife signifies that the new wife is ready to accept the responsibilities of her role as keeper of her own household.
