A Beautiful Bride and Groom
It has been a very busy week for me between working and baking "the Wedding Cake" for Kenny and Brandi's wedding. It got done and looked fantastic with thanks to Kathy who helped me nead and roll fondant and who is the piping queen!
Anyhow a few pounds of butter and a whole load of man hours later here is the cake!
It was sitting on a floating stand with rings of flowers in between the tiers. I thought it turned out well and the most important thing is that the bride and the parents loved it right?
Its not a new thing to me I have made many a wedding cake working for Donna Sanche in my opinion the best Pastry chef in Toronto. It is just that I work in an office now I no longer do this on a regular basis so I always feel super rusty. The cakes always turn out though!
I also got asked to make another cake out of this for a November wedding. Again someone I know so hopefully it will go just as well!
I think Kathy and I may just start working more together in the future as we worked really well together with the fondant and final touches.
Kenny and Brandi were just the happiest looking bride and groom and I have to say that the ceremony was one of the nicest I had been to. Perfect timing as well. It was even more special as Reverend Sue was the officiant. Paige was so excited to see them get married and thought as we all did how gorgeous Brandi looked!
The reception was perfect as it was outdoors and the weather for once decided not to be too hot or to rain. The tent, the decour, the food and atmospehre was fantastic!
We had a great time ,it was nice to catch up with so many people that we only see at weddings it seems these days! Why is it that as you get older, married and have kids you see less and less of the people you used to spend all of your time with? It was nice for Waun to hang out with his "guys" although as usual one in particular always has to open his mouth with a snide comment directed at me. GRRRRRRR!
There is NO EXCUSE for rudeness especially as a grown man of 40 something. I tried to not let it ruin my night but it did a bit.
Anyhow I know that this is one of those marriages that will last. They are so well suited together and I wish them many years of happiness together!
