Wedding Cake, Cupcakes, & Cake Cutting



Today's post is about our wedding cake, cupcakes, and cutting the cake!
We used Christina's Cookies and Cakes out of Sulphur, Oklahoma.  
Christina came to set everything up, and I must say I was amazed by how great it looked and tasted!

Enjoy, and don't lick your computer screen.  It'll give you the wrong impression.

We had a small wedding cake with lots of cupcakes!
We had Lemon, Red Velvet, Cherry Cheesecake and Chocolate with a Strawberry on Top cupcakes!
Chocolate Covered Strawberries on Chocolate Cupcakes!  Yum!

Thank you Christina's Cookies and Cakes for the delicious cake, cupcakes, and for setting up!  It was all wonderful!

We love the texture Christina put on the cake!  It went great with the succulents and cake toppers!

These little cake toppers have a wonderful little story.  They belonged to my great grandparents, Leona and Kermit.  My grandma told me they were used at Kermit and Leona's wedding. They were married on June 19, 1938.  That means these two figurines were at least 75 years old at the time that they were used again during my wedding.

I made the decorative piece below our cake using wedding pictures or young pictures of our grandparents and parents.  From the outer edges are our grandparents, leading to us in the middle.  We would not be together today if it were not for our families and heritage!

Thanks to mom for making the awesome wooden cake stand as well!

 The Cake Cutting

Cutting the cake!

My 'oops,' 'crap,' 'oh no,' and 'oh well' face all rolled into one when I realize that I forgot to tell Tyler that we're supposed to save the top layer for our anniversary.  We just made up for it by eating all the leftover cupcakes on the honeymoon.  :D  Love you anxiously hungry for wedding cake hubby! :)  

Yep, you know what I'm thinking.
Do you see this??
He is literally chasing my hand with his face because he thinks I would shove it in his face if he didn't catch it first.
He was right, but he made it too difficult, so I ended up being nice.
That wasn't my plan, just FYI.
Of course he is nice.  He's always nice.
See, nice.  I was nice.  I. Was. Nice.

Yum.  I hope we can go get some cupcakes from her bakery on our anniversary!
Cake is good.  Really good.

Marriage is okay too.  ;)


A big thanks to Birds and Coffee Design for capturing all the photos from our wedding day!
