Wedding cake centerpieces are a sweet alternative to “traditional” centerpiece decor.

What an incredible display these individually decorated mini wedding cakes would make! Just gorgeous.

These edible beauties are stunning too! A smaller version of the wedding cake… one per table. Guests simply cut their own piece.

Personalize.  Personalize.  Personalize.  A great cake topper is just another avenue of personalization to take your wedding cake to another level and pump up the flair volume.  Want your topper to fit your style, the mood, the setting, your likeness… well, here are a few ideas from Etsy to get your wheels turning… {All toppers link back to their stores.}

Vintage inspired theme?  Love this custom feather and 20′s glam vintage-inspired topper.

A beautiful crystal castle in jewel tones… perfect for a Disney or fairytale theme!

So hard not to fall for love birds… no matter what style and theme.

Country wedding?  How cute is this cow and moose? Fun.

Look at his tophat…  adorable.

Personalize a topper in your likenesses…

How sweet is the birdcage veil on this bride? Awesome.

A darling topper for perhaps… a courthouse wedding. Love her veil and hairpiece.

A topper like this fall-themed Swarovski Crystal tree would be stunning for an Autumn wedding.

What kind of topper are you thinking of?

Hopefully the weather is cooperating with the date on the calendar and spring has actually sprung in your area!  In any case, you know what SPRING BRINGS…

flowers and sunshine and color! Oh Yeah!

Flowers at a wedding?  Of course!  But, what about decorating with edible flowers?  You can make a gorgeous and colorful statement simply by using edible flowers as garnishes along the buffet… in the salad… in the soup… and on the dessert.  Another beautiful presentation option… making ice cubes with edible flowers inside or adding colorful flower petals to a punch bowl or in the ice ring.

But, the deal with edible flowers… you need professional guidance from the pros.  You certainly don’t want pesticides and noxious plants gracing your wedding tables.  So, if you would like to grow your own and/or decorate with edible flowers, be sure to first talk with a florist {and the caterer} who specialize in edible flowers.
