2 Not-so Cute Traditions That You Should Avoid!

Image
Here's the plot: The Sign Reads "Who Wears the Cake?" At your wedding set out two glasses and indicate that the one with the greater amount of money gets cake smashed in their face during the Cake Cutting Ceremony.... or Without the Bride & Groom peeking before the Cake Cutting Ceremony, guests "bet" on who's going to smash cake in the others face, The Bride or The Groom. I'm sorry but this is TWO tacky wedding “traditions” combined into one! Your guests paying to see you throw cake at each other. You spend so much time as a Bride getting all gorgeous, doing your make-up all perfect. Only for it to be ruined by sticky cake smashed in your face, cake down your dress and not to mention the dancing time wasted while your cleaning up. I don't see why people still find it funny..... We put this one on the HIGHLY NOT RECOMMENDED list! Photo Credit: http://garonephotography.blogspot.com/2010/06/maine-wedding-photography-spruce-point.htm...

Atmosphere Productions: 3 Creative Wedding Cake Alternatives

Image
Once upon a time, there was one color for wedding cakes (white), one shape (round), and one embellishment (a bride and groom on top). Eventually, bakers branched out: tinting icing, decorating with fresh flowers, experimenting with new flavors and shapes. Today, if you can imagine something, you can probably have it turned into a wedding cake.  But what if you want something truly different? Wedding planners, bakers, and chefs in the Berkshires and throughout New England are willing to help you design a treat that will delight your wedding guests and be remembered long after your reception. Here are just a few ideas to get you started.   Think Small: Cupcakes, arranged in tiers to look like a wedding cake, are a popular option. To personalize them, consider having them decorated with symbols of your honeymoon destination. Even more whimsical (and easier to eat) are cake pops, iced in the wedding colors. Or, for an elegant touch, substitute hundreds of petits fours ...
