Last summer I met with a bride named McKenna Quai, She was my FAVORITE kind of bride. She walked in to Carries knew exactly what style of cake she wanted, she new the colors and everything. I know it sounds like that takes all of the work out of it for me, BUT the truth is it is much less frustrateing for the bride if she has an idea in mind before she comes to us.
McKenna was really excited to order her cake! She pointed to a photo of the cake she liked and said “That’s it, I love that one.” The funniest part though was as soon as she ordered her wedding cake she wanted to talk grooms cakes. The first date McKenna and her fiance went on was to a Utah Jazz basketball game, so she asked us to make a chocolate cake with an “Old School” Jazz ball on top with her fiance’s last name instead of a Jazz players. It turned out AWESOME! It was so personalized just for him, I’m sure he loved it as much as she loved ordering it for him.
The cake McKenna ordered was a 5 tier square wedding cake with soft white fondant and a long draping bow the cascades down the front. It fit the venue perfect, the wedding reception was at La Caille.
In order to try to achieve my goal of a cake a day I had to ask a lot of our photographer friends to send in photos of our cakes. Kate Jeppsen of Jeppsen Studios was one of the first to help out and sent these photos to us. BIG THANK YOU! Kate the photos are beautiful!
I am not positive who did the flowers for this wedding, as soon as I find out I’ll let you know.
Congratulations and best wishes to you both!
