Oh So Pretty Cakes

You can do a whole bunch of things with your wedding cake these days. Bakers can create just about anything. AlthoughI feel they should be simple and reflect the theme of the wedding, you can go nuts if you want. Even if you’re not having a cake its nice to look at some different options. Here are a few I came across I think are fabulous.

Summer Wedding Inspiration

Spring and summer are definitely popular seasons for weddings. However, sometimes the hot weather can put a damper on the festivities. No one likes to sweat when they are dressed up, especially the bride and groom!

Here are some ideas when having a summer wedding. If you are having a reception outside I can only say, keep it cool, fun and comfortable. Hope they inspire all the sun loving couples out there who plan to incorporate this season into their special day.

Keeping the decor light and airy is what you want to try to do. Stay within summer’s elements with blooms and lush natural beauty. Even when using dark colors, you should reflect off their heaviness with pastels or light neutrals. Just so it doesn’t feel stuffy.

Fall Into Autumn Weddings

Fall Into Autumn Weddings

Fall is right around the corner and although I chose to have a spring wedding, autumn is my favorite season of them all. I love the cool weather and how the colors change. The sky is a different blue and I find that beautiful as well. Everything is a little bit darker and richer which is nice after the hot summer.

Fall into Autumn Weddings

I have only been to one fall wedding in the past and they definitely celebrated the season through the decor. The one thing I would watch out for is to go overboard. A harvest theme can get a little crazy and seem like Thanksgiving and a darker theme can look like Halloween. In most cases, these won’t end up successful, unless you want to celebrate the holidays.

I think its most important to really use the fall colors wisely and try not to use one too much, like having a whole event of orange. Don’t get stuck in traditional ideas and think you should only use brown, orange and red. You can bring in other colors as well. Just blend them with a unique style.

Here are some great examples I came across of fall themed weddings. I say, celebrate nature and its beautiful changes and let the Earth give you all the inspiration you need.
