What a busy weekend! My niece married her high school sweetheart in a sunset ceremony on Lake Monroe on 9/10/11. I was a bridesmaid and my Sugar was the flower girl. I also threw the bridal shower and helped her plan the wedding, so I'm not sure what I was thinking when I volunteered to also do the cake! But I was happy to do it for her (and save her the expense). However, I will admit this was the most pressure I've ever put on myself when doing a cake! I couldn't quite get it perfect enough...it's the biggest day in my pseudo-little sister's life after all!!
There were about 80 wedding guests and she wanted to keep the top tier for their one year anniversary, so I did a three-tiered cake to ensure there would be enough servings. The wedding colors were black, white, and red with a damask print on the invitations and various other wedding keepsakes. The bride is not a fan of fondant, so I used only vanilla buttercream icing with a red satin ribbon border. And the cake flavor she picked was...Funfetti!! She said "Plain white cake is so boring." Love it! Congratulations baby girl!! ♥
