Beach Themed Wedding Cakes

This post is dedicated to my friend Andrea who is currently planning a beach destination wedding.  In the search for everything beach, I came across some a couple great local cake designs that I would like to share. After all, every special occasion deserves a special cake.

What comes to mind when you think beach wedding? A beach themed cake need not be as casual as it sounds. I typically think of sand, sea shells and tropical flowers. The colors that come to mind are sea blues and greens, crisp whites and tans or sandy colors. Sea shells immediately make you think beach. Maybe you want something that just feels tropical. An arrangement of fresh tropical flowers may be exactly what you are looking for. Whether your style is unique, elegant, casual or sophisticated, let your imagination run wild. This is your day, celebrate it with style.

Over the next few months we will be adding more information for planning your beach or destination wedding. Until then, visit www.celebrationsbysonja.com or www.stylebytheslice.com for inspiring cake ideas. Happy planning!

 

He or she? What will it be? Gender Reveal Party

Gender Reveal Invitation

Printable Gender Reveal Baby Shower Invitation

We are pleased to announce the newest Gender Reveal Party baby shower invitation to our collection. Couples are opting for gender reveal parties more than ever. We have included a few ideas in this post to pull off this kind of party.

What is a gender reveal party?

it is very similar to a couples baby shower. In years past baby showers were traditionally were attended by only women. This type of party is coed. Both men and women get to share in the excitement in finding out the baby’s gender!

How do you reveal the baby’s gender?

Pink or blue cake is a favorite. If the expecting couple cuts out a pink piece of cake then it’s a girl and if the expecting couple cuts out a blue piece of cake then it’s a boy. Another alternative would be to do cupcakes baked with charms inside that are pulled out with a string or ribbon. The color of the charm reveals the gender of the new bundle of joy.

Or the mommy-to-be can remove a special colored knife out of the cake to reveal the gender of the baby. It’s all up to the host and how the expecting parents want to reveal the little one!

Remember, nothing about this type of party should let on to the baby’s gender. It is very important to keep everything as neutral as possible. From invitations to centerpieces, neutral is the key.

We would love to hear from you if you have hosted any gender reveal parties in the past. We look forward to hearing from you!
