UNIQUE Info: Cake Size

When we discuss wedding cakes with our Brides, one question that always comes up is - "How big of cake should I have?"

Typically, we defer to the cake baker, as they can offer the best information, but we came across this informative chart on Pinterest -

This chart can definitely help you when deciding the size of your wedding cake!

UNIQUE Ideas: Wedding Signs

Wedding signs can serve two purposes. They can help guide your guests and they can be a decorative addition.

If your wedding layout is confusing, signs will help guide your guests. To know if your wedding layout can be confusing, is to walk it as a guest. Are there twists and turns that may entice your guests?

When it comes to the decorative aspect, putting some signs around your wedding with fun sayings and cute details will add an extra special touch.

UNIQUE Ideas: Ombre

Ombre is all the rage! Utilizing multiple shades of the same color, from light to dark, creates dimension and interest and adds a modern touch to your wedding.

Whether it's on the cake, in the flowers, or even your gown, like the uber-cool Gwen Stefani, adding ombre to your design will most definitely achieve a UNIQUE wedding!

UNIQUE Ideas: Subtle Statement

Happy Tuesday UNIQUE fans!

As you must know, we are BIG fans of color, but you don't always need a color blast to make a statement. Sometimes an ivory wedding is just the thing to capture the elegant, timeless statement that you are seeking. To add some variety, bring in some different shades of ivory, white, and champagne. Candlelight is the perfect compliment to this color scheme. When is comes to lighting, amber (the color of candlelight) will always complement it.
