How about paying well-desserved attention to the other star of your wedding: the cake!

Your wedding cake is symbolic, it’s gorgeous and it tastes delicious. Treat it like the star it is by prettying up its space on its own table with candles and/or flowers. Once your guests take a peek (and once you peek at your wedding photos) you’ll be thankful you did.

Love, Raya

We are CRAZY about this setup! Do not underestimate what lighting or candles can do for your cake display.

And what creation is that setting atop that glowing surface, you ask? Kate Moss’ wedding cake by one of our favorite bakers, Peggy Porschen.

Be inspired!

One of our favorite places to direct creative energy in wedding decor is in the centerpieces and table numbers of a celebration.

When you’re dressing up your table think of a fun way to include your table number. In fact, the two should work seamlessly together; books, flowers and candles can help to create a cohesive presentation.

Love, Raya
