About Melody @ Sweet and Saucy Shop

Hope everyone is having a fabulous week! I want to share some fun photos with you. Over the last few months, I have had some amazing experiences with so many talented vendors in the wedding industry, and I am so happy to share them with you! This photo shoot was for a top San Diego wedding magazine, and I was privileged enough to work with LaVonne from Adorations, who did all the floral designs, Rebecca Gaffney and Mia Saling from Red Letter Days who designed the second shoot, and Karrie Pyke from Posh Paperie who did the menus and notecards.

The first tablescape was a Hawaiian theme, and I think it turned out lovely! I decided to make mini cakes for the table, and we wanted to match the invitations with the dessert so we printed the pattern on edible frosting sheets. We then covered the mini cakes in fondant and wrapped the cake with the frosting sheets. We piped mini white royal icing dots, added a yellow circle of fondant on top, and finished if off with yellow sugar plumerias. LaVonne came up with the great idea to place the mini cakes in a gorgeous peony -love, love, loved it! Everyone really came together and created a beautiful look! :-)

Now onto the Spanish Flamenco shoot! For this shoot we decided to do a black and white cake with red accents. Sara made a gorgeous sugar red rose and then we made sugar pearls and jewels. The tablescape was simply amazing and was larger than life! Posh Paperie did fabulous job with the menu cards too!
