Wedding for Josie & Roshan!

11/16/2013

I had a total of six wedding in 2013, and each one was special for different reasons.  Whether it was an amazing venue, a personal connection with the bride and groom, or the excitement of trying a new cake technique, each wedding had been a treasured experience.  The year culminated in, what was for me, one of the best wedding I’ve had the pleasure of attending or being a part of.

So many factors went into the fantasticness that was Josie and Roshan’s wedding.  The ceremony was sweet, personal and the officiant was charming.  The venue (Hockley Valley in Orangeville) was all around amazing, from the gourmet food, to the room décor, everything was top notch.  The DJ was awesome and the photo booth was a big hit (I think my table took advantage of the instant fun pictures – the majority of the pictures are of us!).

I think what had the biggest impact on me was the way Josie and Roshan incorporated aspects of all their varied heritages (Scottish, Greek, Italian and Indian!) into aspects of their wedding.  The highlight of the evening for me, and most people I think, was the Scottish piper and the Indian bhangra drummers playing the newlywed couples into the reception area for the first time.  I don’t think I would have ever put those two instruments together, but man was it ever incredible!


And of course, Josie and Roshan had a beautiful wedding cake as well.  Their theme was red and gold and their flower was a poinsettia (which were beautifully scattered around the room, three per table!).  I decided on a simple cake with hand made sugar pointsettias.  I wanted the focus of the cake to be on the flowers, which were going to be quite the task, so I kept with a simple white fondant design with a gold ribbon accent.  I had gotten quite sick just before the wedding and was bed ridden for a couple of days, which put me really behind with the cake.  Luckily, thanks to a couple very good friends, we were able to get everything done in time.  I was very pleased with out the flowers came out.  The mother of the bride has a better picture of just the flowers – I’ll see if I can get a copy.

    I baked my first cookie at the age of 5, and have been in love ever since.  The smiles on people's faces when they taste my creations is what keeps my passion alive!
