The Bridal Babe

Hello Bridal Babes,

So many of you really haven’t had a chance to know me and I hope through this blog that will change. I have an extreme passion for the unique, especially when it comes to weddings.

Cake toppers have come a long way since plastics water fountains and plastic bride and grooms. Etsy.Com allows individuals to sell: vintage, handmade, and arts and crafts type items. There are seriously thousands upon thousands of pages available for any occasion. It’s all about Custom Art.

Now, I love butterflies! And no, I’m not so obsessed that I have butterflies everywhere, in fact you wouldn’t know it unless you really knew me. But I found these edible butterflies on Etsy by a shop called Sugar Robot. These edible fluttering delights look so real, it would be a shame to eat them. I can just imagine hundreds of these butterflies cascading up a classic 5 tier white cake topped with more of these beauties. They also carry other creative edibles.

St Jude's Handmade Paper Flower Creations Makes Gorgeous, realistic paper flowers and accents, and if you’re a bride with severe allergies, think about these as an alternative to traditional floral uses:

Lauren Alane makes adorable little “Love Birds”

Dandelion Land – Custom painted wooden pegs to look like the bride and groom

Blue Butterfly Designs – Most notable product is the Philly “Love” Park Topper and my favorite, the kissing fish.
