My last wedding cake of the 2010 season was aptly themed for the fall! The cake is a fondant covered vanilla Pound cake with buttercream filling and frosting.

Here is the topper:

And yummy cupcakes:

Some were chocolate and some vanilla. Both were iced with a “pillow” of fondant topped buttercream!

My friends Meghan and Matt were married this summer! They love bright fun colors and chose pink cupcake wrappers with yellow icing for their wedding “cake”:

The cupcakes are topped with cherry slice candies – yum!

Hello there blog space I have been very absent from! After the whirlwind of wedding planning, a magical event, and a 2400 mile honeymoon road trip, I am back and ready to blog about the wedding of the year! I can say that right, since it was my wedding?

We went very nontraditional and skipped the paper invitations and did a website with information (and electronic RSVP) and sent emails to our small group of family and friends. I wanted to start with the video we made, which was an awesome feat, as well as the perfect marriage of things we both love – embroidery and stop motion animation. It still makes me smile to see it and hear the sweet tune (Matt played it on his ukulele).

We were lucky to have many generous artists and crafters in the family that contribute to the big day. I’ll be back soon with some stories of these amazing people and the things they made.
