Another feminine cake is the 3-tier brocade wedding cake, presented by the same site, but available this time from O’holysweet. This is decorated with something that appears to be lace, only that it is sugar. However, this cake uses indeed a special fabric as extra embellishment, and this is satin. If you look at the top layer of the cake, you will see a dark ribbon; well, that is the satin mentioned before. The middle layer is garnished with a necklace made from sugar, which has the same color (pink), as the cake itself.
We have chosen to present pink wedding cakes today, because this is the perfect color if you are planning to have a romantic wedding.

If you look for some wedding cake ideas, let us recommend you several of the most interesting ones, as we have found them on the Internet.
1. Colored wedding cakes have always been interesting. Cream is in general white, but this does not mean that you cannot use food colorings in order to enhance the beauty of a wedding cake. In most cases, food colorings are not exactly safe for your health, this is why we recommend you to color that cream with natural colorants, coming from fruits, such as strawberries, cherries, blackberries and others.

2. Another great idea is to have a Castle wedding cake. In general, this idea is accepted more easily by a woman, than by a man, still Castle wedding cakes have proven their beauty and profitability in the weddings industry, so they are definitely here to stay.
3. If you like fruits, you can use them as the main ingredient of your wedding cake. Who has not heard of banana cakes or apple cakes? They are so tasty that your guests will ask for another slice.

Nothing can compare to a fresh fruit or vegetable.

There are many ideas that can be taken into account by a marrying couple for their wedding cake and one of them is having a castle wedding cake. Even though a castle-themed cake seems like a great idea for a 5-year-old girl, who still believes in princesses and fairytales, it is a great idea for a wedding as well, as long as both members of the future family agree. You simply cannot have a castle wedding cake for the bride, for example, and a firefighter-themed cake for the groom. The guests will understand that there were some problems in choosing the wedding cake and this is not what you want to express at your wedding.

Other type of cake is the one embellished with flowers or perhaps with jewelry. If you like innovative cakes, try a Halloween one, especially if you plan to organize your wedding close to this holiday. A heart-shaped cake will always be appreciated by couples and also by their guests and also fruit cakes will receive a high amount of attention from everyone.
If you look for an affordable wedding cake, try using only the most common ingredients, such as chocolate, cream and syrups. Don't choose charlotte, unless you have the money to pay a wedding cake made from this ingredient. Also, order a one or two-layer cake, not one as tall as the Empire State building.

It is preferable to take into consideration the season when you celebrate your wedding. For example, for a summer wedding, you can choose a beautiful floral cake and for a winter wedding, a cake embellished with silver jewelry, that represents small snowflakes or Christmas trees. Another option would be to use the benefits offered by the sugar and the creativity had by the wedding cake designers and have your cake painted in lots of colors and created in all sorts of shapes.
And do not forget the cake topper, which in most cases is the most important element of a wedding cake, sometimes more important even than the main ingredient of the cake, like chocolate, fruits, charlotte, jelly or others. The cake topper can be made from sugar or other ingredients, or it can be placed on the wedding cake only for decorative purposes. The cake and also the cake topper must be in accordance with the entire atmosphere and theme of the wedding.

Organizing a backyard wedding is a great idea for those that don't have enough money to rent a wedding venue, such as a restaurant or an outdoor location. However, not all the backyard weddings are cheap and the couple that organizes a wedding in such location must face several challenges. About them and how to throw a perfect backyard wedding, in this article.
Choose the season
There are couples who prefer winters; in this case, a tent must be taken into consideration, because it is obvious that the tables cannot be placed directly in the outdoors. But the best recommendation is to choose spring or summer, because you have more chances for the weather to be appropriate for a wedding, the day you organize it.

Plan the seating
Couples that organize their wedding in the backyard want to spend a very low amount of money on this event and they obviously do not hire a wedding planner. Because of this, they need to plan the whole wedding by themselves.
And one of the first activities is to send the wedding invitations and then, thanks to the responses you receive, to plan a seating. There should be enough tables at the wedding and also enough space between them. The preferred table is the round one and the distance between them should be of around 12 inches. If the tables are square or rectangular, they can be grouped together in order to leave enough space for dancing.

The couple must emphasize the location of the wedding in the wedding invitations, because guests needs to know what dresses and shoes to select for this wedding.
Select the menu
The menu should be the light, especially if the wedding takes place in the summer. Backyard weddings are in general smaller than restaurant weddings, this is what you should pay attention to the preferences of your family and friends. In other words, you should connect the wedding meal to their preferences and offer them only what you know they like. Jazz up the cocktail hour, which takes place in the case of most backyard weddings, with sophisticated drinks and light cookies. During this time, encourage conversation and mingle with the guests, ensuring that everybody feels fine and enjoys the time spent at your wedding.

What can be more beautiful than using the power of autumn at its best? In autumn, most trees give fruits and most crops are ready to be harvested; this means to not hesitate to use them at your wedding.
