So can I present to you our cake?

I found our cake, I surely did, its going to be buttercream color with chocolate mudcake inside.... and look really elegant.. (well I hope it will). Surrounded by our cupcakes which I posted earlier.

Here's the inspiration pic, of what I gave to my dear friend Catherine.

She says she can create this for us. :) YAY! the ribbon shall be orange.. and I went on the hunt yesterday to find a brooch similar... And I did.. except it cost 160.00 dollars. EEP!!

I found one that's not as perfect but at least I'm not going to spend time worrying about it if it gets lost. And its going to do the job. It also cost $14.95. That's a bit of difference in money!
Here it is;

*sigh* I love it when I find a bargain and when another job is completed!

Cupcakes and cake - fave topic!

So I realised I hadn't posted in nearly 4 days.. Has that got to be a record?

Today is a BIG week in regards to wedding stuff, one of these is that we picked out our cake!!!!, that will be surrounded by cupcakes. Picture the cake below, in butter cream color, chocolate on the inside with orange ribbon and gold brooch. CUTE OVERLOAD!! our friend Catherine is going to make this for us. Very exciting!

The cupcake.. so after having about 40 designs to choose from this one made the final cut! Picture this: Chocolate cake, butter cream color cream and alternating orange and red flowers. We are getting a local vendor to make 150 of these.

Makes me hungry just looking at them! I cant remember where I got the pics from, I somehow added and added more pictures and forgot to write locations. But if you stumble on this blog and your reading this and your cute cake and cupcake is pictured... I appreciate you forever!

Anyone DIYing there own cake or are you purchasing?
