How gorgeous is this paper flower?

I love this modern take on craft items....and I adore the idea of using something in your wedding that you can keep afterwards as a reminder.  A mix of real florals and gorgeous paper flowers like this one would be amazing and fun!  Thanks to my cousin and gossip blogger Nicole for the link.

Jessica & Sam - Featured in the San Francisco Chronicle!

We were so thrilled to see our clients, Jessica and Sam, featured in the San Francisco Chronicle.  Their wedding was gorgeous, with so many fun details.

Jessica and Sam live in London, Sam was born in Sri Lanka, and together the two have traveled all over the world.  Their escort cards were a gorgeous map, with luggage tags for each guest corresponding with some of their trips.

Their favors were gorgeous little boxes of Sri Lankan wedding cake - very fun and special.

We can't wait to see the rest of the photos from the wedding, but this one pretty much sums it up: a gorgeous couple surrounded by family and friends!

We were so happy to be a part of Jessica and Sam's special day.  Thanks to the Chronicle for the great feature.  Make sure you check out the article, it has lots of cute details about the couple.

I am loving these beautiful cakes from Sweet and Saucy Shop!  It was hard to pick just a few to share - I want to do a wedding for each one of these cakes!

Fun, clean, and modern - this one caught my eye immediately.  Great for a party or a wedding!

I love this one - frosting carnations, so delicate and lovely.

Gorgeous orange mini cakes...

Seriously?  How gorgeous is this freaking cake!!!!!

Love this setup of frosted cakes with huge, gorgeous pink dahlias.  These are my favorite flowers.

And finally - my favorite.  This cake is genius.  I might have to do a design board for it, just because.

Hope you enjoyed this eye candy!

Hope your weekends was as nice and relaxing as mine!
