Travel Themed Wedding

Travel Themed Wedding at Calamigos Ranch

Great couple who live in Australia and travel the world, couldn't have picked a better theme for their wedding.  

Custom Topper which looked like the couple and their pooch.  Complete with an Australian flag and a US Flag.  Even had their luggage on top, all packed up for another honeymoon adventure.

It's always to great to see the bride and bridal party before the ceremony.  Here they are checking out the wedding cake!

Note from the bride
This cake was everything I imagined and more for our travel themed wedding. Lori made the process so fun and was very enthusiastic about our cake. She had so many great ideas. The cake was so personalized with the countries we've been to, and where we lived. Was so happy when I first saw it!
Mariel

The bride had fun checking out all the details on the cake, Flags from around the world circled the tiers, map of their hometown in Australia.  Maps and path around the world showing places they have visited.

These paper flower bouquets were really amazing.  Each one a little different, using vintage looking maps from around the world.

Each table had a different story about their travels.  A paper map flower held them in place.

I love themed weddings, SO FUN!

Congratulations to Mariel & Jason!

Calamigos Ranch Wedding

Another Beautiful Wedding Cake Delivered to 

Calamigos Ranch - Main Dining Room

It always amazes me each time I deliver a wedding cake to Calamigos Ranch, the different decor.

Each bride and groom bring out their personalities at the receptions and this bride was no exception.

This wedding had lots of lace and bling and it was fun to create a wedding cake to fit into the theme.

Loved these chairs at the Sweetheart Table.  So creative to bring in their own chairs!

Burlap and Lace table coverings.  Loved the touch of blue!

Another fun rustic touch!

#7 

 

We all loved how sweet this cake turned out.  The vines, the stenciling and the pin-tuck pattern were a perfect fit for this bride. 

 

#8

The cake isn't so beautiful, but Jennifer Lopez sure is!

The cake was a replica of Jennifer Lopez' Glowing Perfume.

Can't tell by this picture but the cake glowed under to cap on top and under the bottom onto the base.

 

This replica of Jennifer Lopez' new perfume Glowing was one of the highlights this year.

We were lucky enough to be asked to create it and even luckier when we presented to her at the Bel Air Hotel.

She is ever so beautiful in person and a very nice person.  I even received a very heartfelt thank you from her :)

 

 

 We'd love to hear which are your favorites!

Post your favorites!

Happy New Year
