Amazing New Jersey wedding Cake Designer serving New York weddings and NJ!

Photos by Eat Cake Be Merry

I love introducing new designers, especially new cake designers with such pretty details and yummy flavors!
I recently had the pleasure of interviewing Eat Cake Be Merry, a NJ cake designer who offers not only cake but cupcakes, and cookies for all occasions. Serving New Jersey and New York. Here is our conversation:

1. What makes eat cake be merry unique?
EatCakeBeMerry offers a freshness for the modern bride that is looking for clean details, bright colors, and sophistication of design. We customize all our cakes so we can make it extra special for the couple on their wedding day.

2. What services do you provide?
We offer three services within our company: EatCake, EatCupcakes, and EatCookies. These provide a variety of options for all the events that surround your wedding, such as the reception, rehearsal dinner, bridal showers, and guest favors.

3. What can you advise brides and couples to be aware of or avoid when looking for a cake artist?
Look for a cake artist that is skilled with the features that you want on your cake. For example, if you are looking to for a lot of intricate piping , you should choose a designer who you know specializes in that technique rather than a designer whose strength is in sculpting cars.

4. What style or ingredients and flavors do you like to work with?
I really enjoy combining classic cake flavors, like vanilla and chocolate, with fresh fruit fillings. It's also a treat for me when couples are looking for more unique flavors, such as green tea buttercream.

5. Do you have a favorite cake that you have created?
With all the heart that goes into each cake, its hard to choose a favorite!

6. What are the latest trends in cake design?
Well, couples are definitely moving towards graphic patterns and vibrant colors. Cakes are really becoming a creative expressions of the bride and groom for their special day.

Thanks Liz for sharing!

Pictures from We Tv & David Tutera's Premier of My Fair Wedding & launch of David Tutera By Faviana

I had the pleasure of being at New York City's Gotham Hall for the premier of We Tv's My Fair Wedding with David Tutera.
The opening act was amazing by Nuttin But Stringz! Followed by the collaborative launch of David Tutera By Faviana a line of luxury wedding gowns inspired by couture red carpet affairs and events. The collection is expected to be in stores by February 2010. David can add this to his amazing list of accomplishments from floral and event design to his newest book, The Big White Book of Weddings. Everyone also enjoyed the premiere of My Fair Wedding with David Tutera and of course it was exciting, funny and amazing to watch the transformation. One of my fav wedding shows.
Here are some pictures of the fab event enjoy!!

Purple & Pink Luxury Wedding Invitations Photo Shoot by New York invitations designer Lela New York

These wedding invitations are one of my favorites! I know, I say that a lot but, these are so unique and personal to the couple. Lela New York designed the couples wedding invitations using a vellum overlay to tell their engagement story. The couple took a small plane ride to a small island off the coast of Cali and got engaged! Super romantic! Plus the couple have been best friends for the longest before he popped the question. The invitations were placed inside a custom purple silk invitation folio that was embroidered with their custom monogram using silver thread. The custom letterpress invitations were later boxed inside these pretty silver boxes and wrapped in silver tissue paper. The purple and pink invitations were a big hit, and the monogram and graphics are being used through out the wedding. Enjoy these beautiful picts!
