Harrykissoon-Digumarthi, Fernbank, 2/7/9

How cool is it to have your reception at Fernbank .... dining and dancing around the feet of a huge dinosaur skeleton. Very dramatic !!!

You have to have a good sized cake to compete with a huge dinosaur .. and that's what Samantha wanted. So, a 5-tier cake was in order. Each layer was a different flavor ... vanilla filled w/ almond; lemon filled w/ raspberry; white filled w/ lemon; the 4th layer from the top was fake; and the bottom layer was white filled w/ Bailey's. A subtle scroll design was placed on the bottom of each layer and the cake was then completed with gorgeous orchids - provided by the incomparable Carla Duncan (http://www.onoccasionsofatlanta.com/). The mix of green, yellow, and rust was perfect for the room decor.
