🦒Taking a breather...
.. from wedding posts, especially after the "tanking" of the last reel😅.
I don't think I have ever had so few likes in any of my posts, Instagram is hard work,people!😄

Anyway... back to cakes and to this cutie I created last month for a friend's surprise birthday. 🎊
Kimmy's favourite animal is the giraffe & what's best to have a handpainted one on your cake?!

✨️Sweet words from the birthday girl ✨️

"Thank you so so so much for the unbelievable cake! It is amazing! You are an absolute master! 🎂"

🍇🍋Flavour was my best seller, Lamponcina, which is on the menu again today for this week's cake.

Buin Pomeriggio

✨️Winter Weddings...

Set against a backdrop of festive cheer and the twinkling lights adorning the historic streets of Dublin, K&F wedding was a magical & chic event!

Held on New Year's Eve at the luxurious , the city venue was embellished with opulent decorations, a magical Christmas tree, sparkling chandeliers, and elegant floral arrangements in hues of green, white, hints of blue and gold.

The bride was radiant in a couture gown, while the groom dashing in a classic suit.

The reception space was enchanting... tables adorned with towering centerpieces of seasonal blooms and soft, flickering candlelights...a beautiful backdrop for the elegant & classic three tier cake, featuring sugar flowers, foliage and a velvet bow, inspired by the bride's bouquet & the couple's invitations.

It was a night filled with love, laughter, & unforgettable memories, marking the beginning of a lifetime of happiness together.

Thank you to K&F for the kind words 💕& for sharing their beautiful pictures by the very talented 💕

A celebration of Spring...with an unexpected fluffy friend!

A spring wedding set in a castle is the perfect blend of romance, elegance, and timeless charm.
When marring in Ireland you will have an incredible choice of beautiful castles, surrounded by lush greenery, spectacular lake views and architecture. Magical!

Few Tips for achieving your enchanting Spring Wedding:

Colour Palette:
Embrace the season with a soft colour palette. Think pastel tones such as blush pink, soft lavender, yellows and delicate mint green. Truly sophisticated!

Florals:
Spring is synonymous with blooming flowers. Incorporate a variety of seasonal flowers like ranunculi, garden roses, sweet peas, clematis to your floral arrangements. The castle's grandeur can be enhanced with cascading floral installations, table centrepieces, and floral arches.

Stationery:
Use calligraphy, wax seals, and floral illustrations. Consider incorporating watercolour elements to evoke the freshness of spring.

Wedding Cake:
Your cake should reflect the grandeur of your celebration. Like a multi-tiered masterpiece, adorned with a cascade of handcrafted sugar flowers, symbolizing your blossoming love.
Allow your wedding cake to have a place of pride in your overall vision; let it be one of your day’s talking points!
Consider fresh, fruity flavours, like vanilla enhanced with zingy raspberry, pistachio & lime…and why not convey the delicious flavours of your cake with a beautiful handwritten cake card! Such a pretty addition!

Photography: Choose a photographer skilled in capturing the romance and grandeur of the castle's architecture and gardens for stunning backdrops. Utilize the soft, warm light during the golden hour for magical outdoor photos.

Most importantly, on the day, don’t forget to have fun and enjoy a drink & a slice of cake together!

If you have been inspired by the beautiful pics featured, I have tagged each photo with the super talented creatives you can book for your magical Irish wedding!

Happy Weekend!

Love B.
