RANDOM HUMP DAY!
July 30, 2008

It's Wednesday so that means happy hump day! It's so hot outside and it's looking like a "feels like" 103 degree, break out the high humidity hairspray weekend. I'm not complaining. Well, maybe a little. But the truth of the matter is that I'm very excited to be back in Savannah this weekend for Julia and Noah's fabulous wedding. I can't wait. I'll be posting blog images on Tuesday so be sure to check back!

On that note, we're taking a few extra days in and around Savannah so we'll be out of the office Friday until Tuesday. Feel free to leave me an email. I won't be able to return phone messages until I return but I'll return emails in the late afternoon everyday (except Saturday of course while we're photographing the wedding).

And now for a little random fun....

I saw this on a forum recently... a blog dedicated to cakes gone wrong.

How about some cake goodness now. I really LOVE cake. I love everything about it... photographing it, making it, but especially eating it. Here are some of my favorite cakes from weddings of lately:

FABulous pinkness! I love the flowers and how perfectly girlie this cake looks.

  

I see ALOT of college alma mater and football cakes. Back in April Ryan and Julie went all out and had a Georgia Southern themed wedding. The cake color was matched to the sashes of her bridesmaids dresses and has amazing scroll detail. The GSU Eagles cake has to be the most tasteful (and tasty) groom's cake I've ever seen. Check more of this cake out (and a little about their wedding) in the upcoming issue of Georgia Southern's alum magazine.  

  

For the truly diehard football fanatics, you don't just have a football groom's cake, you plan your wedding on your two favorite college football teams rivalry game day. Shannon, a UT fan, and Todd, a Florida Gators fan, did just that. The catering staff of the Marshall house also did a fabulous job of presenting the cut cake. So pretty!

Speaking of amazing groom's cake, check out this sailboat cake from Shelley and Thomas' wedding last year in Atlanta at the amazing Renaissance Biltmore Hotel.

 

If you are from Ohio or Western Pennsylvania, you know all about the beer barrel polka (among other polkas) and the cookie table. I love cookies so I was happy to learn about this tradition last year at Ann and Keith's Hilton Head Island wedding. The tradition is also popular in Greek, Italian and Eastern European countries (who all are known for very yummy confections). The recipes are passed through the maternal order of the family and the bride's mother, grandmother and bridesmaids coem together to share their best cookie recipes for the cookie smorgasboard!

  

 

Hope you enjoy and have some yummy cake this week!
