The Perfect Blend

January 22, 2014 by Carrie Sellman

Bridal shower or Valentines, it’s always a good day to celebrate love.  And today’s feature does just that, in a way that’s uniquely beautiful and downright charming.  It comes to us from Anna Craig of Sweet On You who paired up with Nicole Sihlis of Created Lovely Events and a team of Canadian talent.  This dessert table in shades of pastel and gold brings together vintage tea cups with a mix of loose leaf teas and some incredibly sweet desserts.  Not one, but two lovely cakes stand tall among heart-topped cupcakes and delicately piped cookies.  Small hints of gold add a touch of elegance while a gorgeously golden XO cake topper steals our heart.  It’s The Perfect Blend of all things pretty and it will have you inspired.  Enjoy!

Anna Craig of Sweet On You gives us the scoop:

“This creative shoot really was ‘A Perfect Blend’ of vendors and theme collaborating to create a tea bar and sweet’s table perfect for any bridal shower, afternoon wedding, baby shower, or even a ladies day out!

Complete with vintage tea cups, loose leaf tea, custom sugar cookies, cupcakes, and cute stationary to boot, this table is for those with a sweet tooth and a love for pastels and gold.  I designed two cakes for this theme wanting to keep them fairly simple and elegant in design and color.  The touches of gold work well to highlight design details, I think this works especially well for the cake topper.  These designs are very versatile and could be adapted to almost any occasion.”
