2 of 4

I know it's been a while since my last post, but as you'll soon see, I've been just a little busy - but in a good way. : )

One of my dearest girlfriends got married last weekend in a beautiful outdoor ceremony on the Potomac River.  Everything was beautiful - the paper lanterns, mason jar centerpieces, and of course the stunning bride.  When she asked me to make her cake, not only was I excited, but I was honored to share part of her special day... because she is such a special friend.

I must say, this is probably my personal favorite wedding cake I've made so far.  I just thought it fit in perfectly with her casual, chic, wildflower theme.  And it was one of my favorite flavors - red velvet!  It was so great to see everything come together, and the whole cake table was beautiful.  It was also really exciting to see all the servers come out to cut it and give it out to all the guests - they definitely had it down to a science and got it all passed out so quick!

I also made cake pops for the cocktail hour, but those are yet to come.  For now, here's the cake - congratulations friends!

 The wash basin "cake stand" was my idea - and it was perfect!
 The textured icing was so rustic - love.

There it goes!
