The Winner of the Cake is....

Friday, November 14, 2008

It's official.....our cake will be done by:

Celso's Cakes.
YAY!
Another check off the list.
I'm SO excited about what Celso's will do for us.
We have to go back for another taste test to determine the flavors and fillings.
We have the overall design pretty much down. The bridal cake will be a three tiered cake with each tier being a different flavor.
The cake will have an ivory buttercream frosting with a different design on each tier.
The bottom tier will be square with a swag and swiss dot design.
The second tier will be a hexagon and on the flat front facing forward, we will have our monogram dusted with gold. The tier will also have a swiss dot design with the dots dusted with gold.
The third and top tier will be a circle shape with a scroll work design and the cake topper on top (no flowers).

The Groom's cake will be a surprise, but we're hoping it will be completely awesome. One of Celso's 3-D creations.
I can't wait.

Celso and Pavla have been great vendors thus far and we're looking forward to working them. I've also had great response from my other vendors who have worked with them in the past and have high praise for them.

Gold Chargers for Guests

Tuesday, November 11, 2008

My gold chargers have been delivered!
YAY!
I'm so excited.
I've discovered the Trash to Treasure board on the knot.com which is literally a goldmine for finding wedding items at a great discount.
Brides who have recently gotten married post their gently used or never used items on a board on a first come, first serve basis.

I was fortunate to find gold chargers at an awesome price. So I bought them for all guests to add to the table setting. They were shipped from Alabama and I received them today.
I was kind of weary at first, but I had a great purchase experience and I have some great wedding items to show for it.
