Wedding season is just around the corner with the most popular dates being from September to November due to the beautiful weather we have in Australia at that time. I've got so many amazing cakes booked in that I can't wait to create but there's definitely some stand out design trends I'm seeing based on the bookings that have come through from my couples.
I personally love all of these trends (bright florals are my favourite) but at the end of the day you want your cake to be about you as a couple. Don't be afraid to buck the trends and have something that you truly love for your wedding cake. The wedding cake cutting ceremony is a beautiful tradition and cutting the cake represents one of the first things you do together as a couple so make it special!
What are your thoughts on these trends?

With Mother's Day just around the corner I thought I'd share some images of a photoshoot I did a few years ago that was featured in Confetti Fair Magazine as well as on the Life's Little Celebrations blog. The theming was based on a Parisian style high tea and was styled by the lovely Sara from Events by Sara in collaboration with a number of very talented ladies (see credits below for full details). I loved the illustrations used in the backdrop created by Danielle from Eve and Co Stationery and chose to use that as the inspiration for my hand painted cake. Whilst I love being spoiled by my kids at home on Mother's Day and receiving hand made cards and gifts, I sure wouldn't mind attending a soiree like this one to celebrate such a special day.

When I was initially approached to create the cakes for season 11 of MAFS, I was definitely apprehensive, I’d never been involved in working with a television show before and really had no idea what to expect. The creative team at Married at First Sight were a pleasure to work with. Each wedding is completely unique with it’s own theming and I can’t even begin to imagine how many hours went into the design and planning of each event, not to mention the actual execution on the day of each wedding. Everything happpened at super lightning speed, from receiving design briefs from the creative team, to drawing design concepts for each cake, getting sign off from the powers that be, then creating each cake and delivering to each of the secret shoot locations. I knew that I had to work as efficiently as possible to be able to meet the very tight deadlines and last minute change requests and I feel like I delivered some of my best work. I’m not going to lie, when I was told that 4 of the cakes would be traveling all the way from Sydney to the Gold Coast and surrounds, I was nervous, but I’ve worked on cakes for long enough now to understand how to design something that will withstand the long travel distance and I was so happy to hear that they all arrived on site in exactly the same condition as they left me in. Here are the beautiful images captured from each of the weddings for Season 11 of Married At First Sight (images courtesy of Nine). Sara & Tim |
