It's All About The Cake

Cake, Cake, Cake…
Create your ideal cake on brides.com and see if the colors, patterns, and design

are what you really like.

The cake tells a short story of the couple.

There are many types of styles to choose from, what is yours?

The Grooms Cake…
So exactly what is a “groom’s cake?”

It’s a smaller, more fun cake, that represents the grooms personality and it is not your traditional wedding cake, with the bride and groom topper.

They are also usually made with fruit.

According to the legend, if the woman took home a slice of the groom's cake and slept with it under her pillow that night, she would dream of the man that she will marry while asleep and she'd know by morning who she would be spending the rest of her life with.

Whether the superstition is true of not, these cakes are always a lot of fun.

Planning Tips

Wondering where to start when planning your wedding?

This can be very confusing...

So here are a few starting tips on where to begin planning from

our favorite celebrity: Preston Bailey.

1.Figure out a budget
2.Think about what is most important to “you” (flowers,, décor, food, ect.) and then invest more into that area
3. Research and decide what the color(s) and so called theme will be; when doing so ask yourself these THREE simple questions:

1. Do you want a traditional or contemporary style?

2. What are your favorite colors?

3. What flowers do you not like?

Custom Ties

Here's a chic way to tie the knot...

with custom neck ties for the groom, groomsmen, your father and father-in-law,

and even your ring bearer.

Choose any fabric then send it to Tiecrafters, and

they will fashion the material into neckties or bow ties.

(You can also pick from their own selection of solid and patterned cloths.)

Dress the guys to match, or opt for a range of coordinating colors or patterns.

The men in your life will have a keepsake they'll tie, and tie again.
