Wedding Cake Designs

Every bride wants perfect wedding cake designs. Indeed, there are probably more wedding cake designs than wedding themes. So if you’ve been wondering how to find ideas for your wedding cake designs, here are some tips for you.

• Do a search for “wedding cake pictures” or “wedding cake designs” in internet then take some time to browse and picture each design as a part of your celebration.

• Another option is a wedding planner; they will often have pictures of wedding cake designs that you can adapt to meet your needs.

• Go to weddings, when you can get an invitation and look at the wedding cake – this will give you the opportunity to to taste it as well which could lead you to – and / or away from certain bakeries as well as giving you ideas for wedding cake designs.

• Ask to look at your friends and family’s wedding photographs. It’s a rare individual that won’t jump at the chance to show them off and the picture of the cake they commissioned might inspire you.

• If you are talented at design, you could even sit down and draft your own wedding cake designs that reflects your wedding only.

• Most bakeries have a book that contains a picture gallery of wedding cake designs but save your visit to any pastry chef until after you have a pretty good idea of what you want. Why? Simply because an experienced pastry chef will be able to help you adapt an idea to fit your budget, but he or she can only do that if you have an idea for your wedding cake designs in the first place.

• Wedding cakes come in all colors and shapes and can be adapted to what you want. Decide which shape of tier you prefer and how many you want. Three tiers are most preferable. From the traditional designs with garlands and icing flowers to a cake that looks like a stack of wedding presents, to a stack of crowns, to a tower of pastry, pillars, and flowers complete with butterflies – your options are endless so don’t wear yourself out worrying about how to get an idea for your wedding cake designs.

Executive summary by Peta Fletcher

Silk Bouquets

There are many good reasons for why you might choose to get silk bouquets instead…

Probably the biggest benefit of silk bouquets, is the cost. Usually, silk bouquets will end up being considerably cheaper than a fresh flower bouquet.

Another benefit of using silk flowers in your wedding bouquet, is that after you are married, you can keep the bouquet, as a reminder of the happy day. You can also keep fresh flower bouquets, but to do this they will need to be preserved, which can be quite expensive.

With silk bouquets, you can actually try making the bouquet yourself! It can be hard with real flowers, and it’s much easier for beginners if they are using silk flowers instead.

Does fresh flowers LOOK a lot better than silk? Don’t worry, these days, it’s quite easy to get beautiful silk bouquets, that are indistinguishable from the real thing.

Ultimately it’s up to you to decide what type of wedding bouquet you want. All I can suggest is that you don’t jump into it, and give silk bouquets serious consideration, as they have many benefits. After all, the smell from a fresh flower wedding bouquet will only last for a few days, anyway!

A good display will help to really show off your wedding, and will also help to make sure the silk bouquets stays in tip-top condition. Whichever way you choose to decide to display your bouquet, there are 4 simple rules you should pay attention to:

1) Put silk bouquets in a place where it will draw attention.

2) Make sure the bouquet is out of the way. You don’t want to be knocking it over, or pushing it aside all the time.

3) Keep it simple. Many people get carried away when setting up their bouquet display, and add too many photographs and other wedding items.

4) Be sure to avoid direct sunlight hitting the bouquet. Direct sunlight is very bad for silk bouquets, and will make them fade and lose their color.

But if you want a grander one, you might want to look for diamond wedding rings sets that have intricate designs or have traditional and antique look.

2. Know what kind of metal you prefer and also determine its weight based on your budget.

The most common setting of any diamond wedding rings sets is gold-it can be white gold or yellow gold. Based on standards, fine gold jewelry should be mounted in either a 18-karat (K) which, consists of 18 parts pure gold with 6 parts other metals or a 14-karat (K) that has 14 parts pure gold combined with 10 parts of other metals.

Most jewelers agree that a 14-K yellow gold will last longer over time compared to the 18-K yellow gold because it is harder. If you like white gold for your diamond wedding rings sets, 18-K is the best because it is whiter, harder, and more resistant to scratches.

Other common option is platinum because it has remarkable appeal and could last longer. Since it’s more durable compared to gold, a diamond wedding ring set made of platinum can resist breakage, chipping, and cracking over time and most of all, it doesn’t cause any discoloration of the skin.

3. Consider the shape.

The popular diamond shape for wedding rings is round or brilliant because they tend to sparkle more than other shapes. Other popular cuts for diamond wedding rings include baguette, emerald shape, heart shape, oval shape, pear shape, princess cut, marquise, and trillion wedding rings.
