/ WEDDING CAKES /

Perfecting your cake with

CAKE FLOWERS

By Katie Huntley, Rose + Thyme Floral endless. Wanting a boho minimalist vibe?

Have your florist throw some dried grasses on there. Going for a wildflower vibe? Your cake can show it. Summer garden party wedding? Your cake can indicate that too!

The flowers help to showcase the colors and theme of the wedding in many ways, and adding that element to the cake is always a good idea!

The wedding cake is a classic part of the wedding. From the cutting to the “cake smash”, it’s a fun way to celebrate the wedding and is actually a symbol of good luck and hope to the couple.

However, how should you design your cake?

What should it look like? Inside it must be delicious, but the guests are going to see the outside too! The cake can be a centerpiece and fun focal point of the wedding, but how do you make that delectable count?

Cake flowers are the answer! There are so many different ways to make that cake look like a showstopper and a few simple flowers can really make all the difference! Choosing the cake flowers depends on the theme because the possibilities are ultimately

16 CIVIC CENTER MUSIC HALL // SPRING 2022

As far as design goes, talk to your cake decorator and see if they would like to put the flowers on the cake before asking your florist to do it. The cake is the baker’s masterpiece and you want to keep it that way! However, we would suggest asking the florist for the flowers whether or not the cake decorator decides to do it. That way there is harmony throughout all the florals in the wedding! If the cake decorator is fine with the florist doing the flowers, make sure they know they will be the ones doing it so they can be there and coordinate when the cake arrives!

Whatever cake flowers you decide to do... remember that it can be the finishing touch to the wedding and a fantastic focal point for all the guests! It is well worth the couple extra dollars to make your cake really stand out!

“The Queen of Heirlooms”

by Julianne Libutti CEO Life + Jewels

Before you pick out or design your wedding ring, we believe it’s important to change the way you think about this crowning piece of fine jewelry. We like to call wedding rings the “Queen Heirloom”. An heirloom is: “A valuable object that has belonged to a family for generations.” So shift your thinking to understand.. the moment your wedding ring is created, your first family heirloom is born!

So while you are enjoying it every day of your life, your daughters and granddaughters will also be noticing it, they will love it too. And someday, it will actually belong to one of them!

Keeping the end in mind as you start out on your engagement ring journey is important, and will help you to see this choice in more of a “long term” light. There are two things you should keep in mind while making this decision. First, steer clear of fleeting trends.

And second, make sure it is a piece that really represents you, your love, and your story.

34 CIVIC CENTER MUSIC HALL // SPRING 2022

Trends in jewelry are much like trends in fashion. Styles come and go quickly each year, while there always remains a steady classic standard underneath. As you decide on your ring, don’t make any quick or high pressure choices. If a style is catching your eye, make sure it’s not too high on the “trendy scale”. Even though you might love it today because it’s cutting edge and high fashion, a few years from now it might be out of style and dated.

Keep classic style as the center foundation of your ring. You’ll never regret it.

The second thing to remember is making sure your ring is the perfect fit for “you”.

Each woman is completely unique, and as such, each wedding ring should be too! If you walk into a fine jewelry establishment and have only a handful of choices, be aware that you could be led to choose something that doesn’t really represent you.

One thing we highly recommend is designing a custom wedding ring. If you work with a company that specializes in custom engagement rings, the price will stay in line with what is available in jewelry stores. Working with a designer to add your favorite elements into your ring will ensure that it truly represents you and your story.

The final piece will be completely one of a kind, and will tell your story through the generations.

So take a deep breath, keep the big picture in mind, and don’t be rushed as you make this once in a lifetime decision. This, the Queen of all your family Heirlooms, will someday be a truly priceless reminder of you, your love, and the beginning of your story.
