The spring of 2022 was a busy one and I"m beyond excited to share some snapshots of all of my beautiful clients! Let's start thing off with the tenacious Melanie and Oscar who pushed through Covid to have a intimate service with family and later came together for a gorgeous celebration captured by the lens of Anette Miguel Photography.

A Stained Glass Celebration

Melanie and Oscar came together along with their family and friends to celebrate their love surrounded by the ethereal stained glass of the Gelman Stained Glass Museum in San Juan, Texas, which houses one of the largest collections in the United States. An eclectic range range of colors cast a soft glow throughout the cathedral highlighting the vastness of the room, all the while bringing forth an intimate warmth.



The "I Do"

Walking down the isle towards the love of your life is something hard to describe. Walking down the isle surrounded by friends and family after being apart for so long is indescribable. Melanie and Oscar's Celebration of Marriage was commemorated by the placement of the traditional wedding lasso on their shoulders as a symbol of their everlasting union and status as one in the eyes of the Lord which was also accompanied with plenty of smiles from all those around them.



The Style

Melanie and Oscar's wedding style was all about romance. Their colors were rich jewel tones that were enhanced by the deep colors of the stained glass, and accented by the soft pastels of Melanie's bridal bouquet and cake floral.



The Cakescape

Melanie and Oscar derived their cake wedding cake inspiration from Megan and Harry's wedding table, which let's be honest is a total favorite of mine. They wanted to have a classy eclectic feel by having different yet equally beautiful gold cake stands and various placing of the flowers across all three of their cakes.


The cake flavors were a deep Dark Chocolate Cake paired with a luscious Bavarian Cream filling and a fluffy White Velvet Cake alongside a sweet Strawberry Buttercream both being finished with a Swiss Meringue Buttercream.



Melanie and Oscar, thank you both for allowing me to take part in your wedding reception and for sharing these photos with me! It was an absolute joy to create your flower filled wedding cakescape.

A personal highlight of working with wedding is receiving a wedding photo albums from clients and photographers. Being able to see the work of so many vendors successfully coming together brings about a certain kind of joy that is hard to express.

After plans were changed by covid, Darlene and Jorge were finally able to celebrate their dream wedding in the autumn of 2021, surrounded by family, friends, and the towering palm trees of Villa de Palmas Gardens in San Juan, Texas. Every beautiful detail was captured by the lens of Edgar Vega Photography and I'm beyond happy to share some of his gorgeous shots.



The Reception

Darlene and Jorge's reception was held at sunset under the cool shade of palm trees and lit by the soft glow of hanging lights. Their wedding vision of greenery, gold, and all shades of blush was on display in every facet of their decor.



The Cake

For their wedding cake, Darlene and Jorge fully embraced the whimsical side of nature. The sleek white surface of the cake was covered with a blend of ruffled palette knife flowers and gold base leaves. Their cake was finished with delicate touches of gold dragees and eucalyptus buds.


The cake flavor was a tender Marble cake made of fluffy vanilla cake swirled with rich chocolate and filled with a classic Cream Cheese filling and finished with an Italian Meringue Buttercream on the exterior.


Darlene and Jorge. You two had me smiling from our first hellos and even while I was driving away with my cake stand. Thank you two so much for being so kind, giving and so full of joy, and for trusting me with bringing you cake to life. You two are beyond amazing!

I can't tell you how happy I am to share some images from photographer Photos by Brendon of my wonderfully talented clients Amy and Gid's wedding at Rancho Guadalupe for their first wedding anniversary.

The Venue

Amy and Gid's wedding reception was held at Rancho Guadalupe's indoor location where modern meets ranch in the best way possible. Found on the outskirts of Edinburg, the venue is a sprawling 1400 acre property that houses a ceremony and reception venue, both with a lakefront view.


The Style

Amy and Gid's wedding vision was inspired by their love of the stage and the stars that grace it. From their rich jewel tones to the celestial design accents, every aspect of their wedding represented their creativity and warmth!


The Cake

For their wedding cake, Amy and Gid wanted to recreate the night sky from their first date on the 12th of August. The lightly marbled tiers were accented with hand painted constellations along with gold dragées to place an emphasis on the brightest stars of each piece of sky art. Their cake was finished with a custom made topper created my Amy and her father.


The cake flavor was a sweet and fluffy Almond Cake with a tart Blackberry filling and our smooth Swiss Meringue Buttercream.


From the bottom of my heart, thank you so much to Amy and Gid for allowing me to bring their cake vision to life and for sharing your story with me!
