Flower Inspiration
Purple is our accent color, and my favorite color. My bouquet will be mostly purple with some white, and green. My bridesmaids will be purple with some green. Our flowers will consist of informal groupings of lily of the valley, orchids, purple roses, purple veronica, bells of Ireland,green hydrangea, fiddle heads, lilly of the valley and other flowers in season that fit our color pallete. The stems will be wrapped in matching satin ribbon. The groomsmen will have lillies of the valley, fiddle heads, forget-me-nots, or similar.
Grooms Cake Inspiration
My fiance loves to fly fish. After searching the web for ideas that weren't totally outrageous, I found this. I ordered the fisherman, trees and fish from Sugar Crafts (see links for more info). My sister will make this as well. He'll have carrot cake with cream cheese frosting. It will be very fitting for him.
Cake inspiration
Here' some of the cakes that we liked. My sister is a pastry chef and making our cake for us.
Our cake will have square layers, covered in pale blue buttercream. The bottom 2 tiers are cake on cake, and the third layer will be separated by clear pillars filled with seaglass and lights. We bought chocolate shells to decorate with that are covered in a pearl luster. Our topper will be 2 chocolate starfish, and in between the tiers will be a 6" chocolate conch shell in purple luster. The entire cake will sit on a piece of glass atop glasses filled with seaglass and lights.
