Any time I see images of our wedding — or any wedding that I plan and design — in unexpected places, I get so excited! I was so pleased and quite honored to see that the incomparable Martha Stewart Weddings featured our own wedding cake yesterday! It really never gets old seeing our wedding published and brings back such a rush of happy memories from the best day of our lives.

This cake was definitely the wedding cake of my dreams: a lightly textured dusty French blue buttercream icing, three tiers of the best cake in the world (chocolate espresso, fresh strawberry with strawberry buttercream, and then vanilla salted caramel fleur de sel!), and the most unique, beautiful wreath of fresh florals and greenery. I wanted a cake that both withstood the test of time but that was also memorable, bespoke, and unlike every other wedding cake. Check and check! I adore how it turned out and can’t thank our incredible vendors — and the Martha Stewart team — enough for bringing it to life on our wedding day!!
