Welcome to part 2 of our mountain wedding reveal. Part 2 involves vintage wedding cake. I was thrilled when Brenda from Cakeworks jumped on board with this project. She & Nicole saw the inspiration board and came up with an incredible cake. An unexpected part of this project was how people saw the same inspiration board and came up with fantastic ideas that I wouldn’t have even imagined.

Vintage wedding cake

Cakeworks allowed me to see the inner workings of the bakery and document the cake-making process. I spent the afternoon with Athena while she took the sketches and made them reality. It was like our own little episode of Cake Boss. Thanks to everyone at Cakeworks. If you’re in the market for a wedding cake, be sure to check them out.

PS: Special thanks to my Pops. Brenda and I were brainstorming and she said “wouldn’t it be cool if we used a tree stump as our cake stand”? The next day, my Dad hauled out the chainsaw and made it happen. Thanks to Nicole Westerlund for helping us haul the cake into the woods to take beautiful pictures.
