WEDDING: Pulliam-Cubit, The Biltmore Ballrooms, 3/24/13

The Biltmore Ballrooms, Atlanta
BRIDE:  Joyce Pulliam
GROOM:  Travis Cubit
VENUE:  The Biltmore Ballrooms


One of the nicest couples I'll ever meet.  Fell in love with both, and had lots of sports fun with Travis ... he's a New York (Giants) fan, I am a Patriot and Falcon fan.  I even went so far as to send condolences to him when the Giants were taken out.

The wedding cake went through a couple of design changes, but when they sent me their "this is it" inspiration photo ... I loved it ... mixing round with hexagon layers ... a punch of color .... BAM !!!

Being a New England/Falcon fan, I had a hard time creating Travis' groom cake/cupcake design .. I just had to repeat many times ... it's only a cake .. it's only a cake !!!  LOL 

I wish Joyce and Travis many years of happiness.

WEDDING: Allen-Roa, Georgian Club, 3/23/13


BRIDE:  Ashlie Allen
GROOM:  Amado Roa
VENUE:  Georgian Club, Galleria



From the moment I saw the inspiration photo of Ashlie's cake, I started praying that she would pick me as her baker.  So beautiful, unique, delicate. Then, when I heard who was going to be her photographer .. I prayed even harder.

I met Ashlie back in November.  She knew exactly what she wanted and I hope I recreated her dream wedding cake.

WEDDING: Cooluris-Trites, Callanwolde Fine Arts Center, 3/9/13

Callanwolde Fine Arts Center
BRIDE:  Christine Cooluris
GROOM:  Kevin Trites
VENUE:  Callanwolde Fine Arts Center

After a week of strong winds and cold weather, the temperature started creeping toward the mid 60's just in time for Christine and Kevin's wedding.  Perfect timing.   I caught a glimpse of Christine and she looked lovely. 

The wedding cake could be the definition of simple but elegant.  A flat finish with puddles of varying size dragee at the base of each tier.

The cannoli were a surprise for the groom and will be eventually placed on a three tier glass stand and presented after the traditional cake cutting ceremony.
