So, I’ve shown you my cake-spiration, but I haven’t shared my vision for how I plan to Top It Off. Having been trolling wedding blog-land for probably the best part of 3 years now (since being a Bridesmaid for fabulous friend K, back when the Mister and I were first dating), I have seen plenty by way of trends; candy buffets, first looks, fun-photoshoots, boudoir shoots and something which particularly caught my eye… whimsical handmade cake toppers!

When we first sat down to think about our wedding, cake was not high on the list of priorities; food yes, cake, not so much. Don’t get me wrong… I am a big fan of cake, and I love looking at all the inspiration for gorgeous wedding cakes around the internet, but the idea of spending hundreds of pounds on a confectionery masterpiece just doesn’t appeal to me.

BUT… I’m in love with a cake, and an extremely expensive cake in particular… one simple, gorgeous, expensive cake:

I love the clean simplicity – and the polka dots. But I don’t like the price tag – I mean I’m sure its a fantastic cake but seriously what must be the mark-up on the ingredients to charge over a thousand pounds for CAKE?! Read the rest of this entry »

Whose wedding is it anyway?

Lucy, Suffolk UK
Age and Occupation:
28, Web Designer
Fiancé's Age and Occupation: 30, Trainee Electrician
Engagement Date: 13 December 2009
Wedding Date: 30 April 2011

About Me: I'm a born and bred Suffolk girl who loves glitter, inventing new words, going to the movies with my soon-to-be-hubby and am completely addicted to the Internet. I am highly skilled at making a mess, not so much at tidying up! I'm a detailed-obsessed craftaholic and can never seem to find enough hours in the day. In 2007 my Internet-addiction finally paid off in the form of my meeting the Mister; who accepts my inappropriate amount of crazy, and we've settled down together to plan our Spring wedding and take care of our two crazy kitties.
