I'm so excited I finally got my wedding pictures from my photographer.I had a fall wedding this year and did my own wedding cake.
The reception was at the Hart House at the University of Toronto.
It has a nice rustic setting and it's simple and elegant.
I wanted to do something to match the place and the fact that it was the fall.
So all my decorations for the wedding and the cake just ended up as a fall theme wedding.
I baked a 3 tier cake for my wedding. The top 6in is a dark chocolate cake with pistachio buttercream.
The 9in layer is a white chocolate cake with strawberry buttercream.
The bottom 12in layer is a vanilla cake with a mango and citrus buttercream.
Covered by fondant. The brown ribbon is also fondant.
Used leaves and a branch with pumpkin as decorations.
I used fishing wires to hold the leaves onto the cake.
This is the center pieces on the long tables we had. The color leaves we used in an effort to match the cake. All fall colors. We scattered small acorns and pumpkin along the long table since it's so long.Along with some candles as well ;)
I weaved all the baskets myself. Rolled newspaper, white glued the rolls into tubes and used them to weave. After the spray paint job you can't even tell it was newspaper!
The headtable had garlands of fall color leaves for simplicity sake.
And our table seating was pretty much harvest color as well.
:) I'm so glad everything turned out so well. Had such a great time and I'm glad our guests did too.
