Whimsical Wedding Cakes – Creme Delicious

Pretty Tasty: Creme Delicious Cakes

I first learned of the fab bakery Creme Delicious while at the wedding of Chris and Jada Paul. The couple had a traditional white multi-tier cake but mid-way through the reception guests were treated to individual cakes similar to those above. And then at the Martha Stewart Weddings soriee last fall, I got to see more of Creme’s edible artistry upclose. Sweet! [Read more...]

Bridgette’s Pick of the Week: Cake Pop Escort Cards

Pretty freakin' adorable, right?

This week’s pick is more if an idea than a “thing”. Right now I’m just smitten with using cake pops as escort cards. I know you’re thinking the inclusion of cake pops at weddings isn’t exactly new. And you’re right. But the novel idea as using them as a unique way to demonstrate your escort cards is kinda new…and yummy, too! Interested in using your own version of the above at your next big function can be as simple or as intricate you want. I’ve seen metallic cake pops, cake pops in a gazillion flavors, cake pops that look like they’re wearing a wedding gown and tuxedo — the list continues. Once your cake pop design(s) are finalized, head to Michael’s or your local craft store for the makings of your escort cards that will either be fixated to each cake pop itself or the stick. Have fun with color and shapes. The end result are your guests nibbling on a sweet treat while they find their seats and get prepared to par-tay!

WBLS Wedding Expo Recap!

Parris Petals: One of the talented vendors Triple B discovered at the recent WBLS wedding expo!

There were somber-skies Saturday morning outside of New York City’s Hotel Pennsylvania. But that weather was no match for the heightened activity on inside. On the 18th floor of the midtown Manhattan hotel, excitement for the WBLS annual Wedding Expo could be felt instantaneously.

Upon arrival, guests were greeted with smiling faces while being ushered into the penthouse suite filled with vendors from all over the The Big Apple (and beyond). Every category from bakers, deejays, photographers, florists and masseuses could be found and a beautifully costumed belly-dancer even worked her skills for one vendor. Trust, if you had no intention of getting married, witnessing the energy during the expo; you were sure to catch the bridal itch. [Read more...]
