A Sunflower Wedding Celebration
On Friday evening, we celebrated the marriage of my cousin, Philip, to his bride, Portia. Not only was it a special event, but the day marked the end of a delightful few days spent in food preparation: watermelon carvings, sunflower cookies, angel food cakes, and of course, the wedding cake. I adored making all of it, from the multi-yellow toned, glazed cookies to the frosting-piped cake. But my favorite parts, by far, were surprising the bride with an actual tiered wedding cake, seeing the happy couple cut the cake, watching the bride and groom enjoy the festivities, and spending time with family in a beautiful outdoor environment. What a fun summer event!
