Let Them Eat Cake!

A dear friend just had her first child get married. The reception was held in their beautiful back yard and it was amazing! So many fun and creative touches that just made it delightful! I got to be a small part of it by putting some of her ideas into vinyl..With a beautiful couple like this,
everything else was just frosting on the cake!

The brides and grooms initials were on all the flower vases

A vintage french door with pictures of the beautiful couple framed in scalloped edged vinyl,
and in every other window the verse of
Shakespeare's Love Sonnet 16


The door had the full sonnet, but here are a few lines on this
shabby chic
shelf hung by the gifts

The Grooms Cake (actually donuts) was served under
this vintage window...
"Let them eat cake!"


The lettering didn't show up very well in my picture so here is what it looked like on laying on my kitchen counter. This window was the father of the brides favorite thing!

I totally agree ...especially if it is CHOCOLATE CAKE!
