Josh & Lindsay’s Wedding

27 Oct

Josh & Lindsay's wedding cake

This was another beautiful wedding reception held at the Fair Barn in Pinehurst. Lindsay’s color theme was a favorite of mine, blue and brown. A few of the special touches for the guest was  a  candy bar and a carriage with the “fringe on top” to use for pictures. The couple also arrived at the reception in a horse drawn carriage decorated with flowers. A classic yellow butter cake was there choice, iced in a vanilla butter cream. Each tier was wrapped in a cocoa brown ribbon and decorated with blue dots. Fresh white roses and a crystal bride and groom were added for that special touch. Below are a few pictures taken before the guests arrived.Tables at reception            Candy Barclose-up of ornament    Fringed Carrige    

They also had a grooms cake that was served at the rehearsal dinner on Friday night. The yellow butter sheet cake was decorated with a fun “ball & chain” theme with chocolate frosting. The ball was also cake. Grooms Cake

The Mother found a design on another website and asked me to use it as inspiration for her sons cake.  She wanted a few additions added to it since they were Irish, like the white shamrocks. The cake was iced in a soft blue butter cream. The cross,  monogram and shamrocks  were made of fondant and the tiny piping  was white butter cream.
