Wedding Bliss

Our Beautiful niece Brooke was married last week in a wonderful outdoor wedding (yes. . . in January) The weather was perfect. Every detail was just as they wanted it. The event was held at Mathews Manor in Springville  
They did a wonderful job of making sure things went smoothly. . . Down to the tiniest detail.

It was just the perfect day . . . for everyone involved. Beth bravely walked Brooke down the aisle and handed her over to Casey. Then she and Brooke entertained us all with a Mother-Daughter dance that rocked the house. The send off with 3 foot long sparklers was the perfect ending (or... is that just the beginning?)

I was in charge of the wedding cake topper ~ I tried to make it as close as I could . . . while incorporating those crimson Roll Tide shakers that Brooke wanted.

I missed on the beard! I thought for sure that Casey would be shaving that thing off. (I need to remember that for a FUTURE cake topper)

I will post more photos of the details of the wedding . . . down to the Krispy Kreme groom's cake.
In the mean time, I have to hop over to ETSY to post my newest happy couple in my ETSY shop ~ Gimme Some Sugar Y'all ~
I am linking to my friend's Costal Charm for a little Show and Share!

Y'all enjoy~

PhotoHunt ~ Craft

The photohunt for today is 'craft' . . .
Y'all know I have lots of crafty photos.
I have been making Wedding Cake Toppers for years. . . they can be found on my ETSY page Gimme Some Sugar Y'all ~ that is crafty.

These are custom wedding cake toppers that are made for happy couples about to be married.

This is a special wedding cake topper. . . I was actually with them when they became engaged in Piazza Navonna in Rome.

They the the most fabulous couple ~ fun and so in love. She is a dance instructor in Texas. Don't you love the little cowboy boots? He is definitely Mr. Right!

I was thrilled to be a part of their wedding. I couldn't be there for the actual wedding, but I was able to share this special momento with them.

PhotoHunt ~ Feather

She said she wanted FEATHERS ~ He is a nutcracker king (actually a military officer wearing his uniform)

Blues . . . and a new couple!

Happy Blue Monday ~
I have just finished a new Wedding CakeTopper from my ETSY store Gimme Some Sugar Y'all  

This was a special order . . .  and I just hope she likes it.

She is planning on wearing her Grandmother's dress, so I did my best to replicate it (on a clothes-pin of course) She wanted to carry blue flowers and have flowers (made from Grandma's dress) in her hair.

He is a Nutcracker Prince. . .
Her Nutcracker Prince.

I wish them love and happiness as they are waltzing down the aisle ~

Don't forget to check in at Smiling Sally for more blues and Boogie Board Cottage for her Masterpiece Monday.
Y'all enjoy ~

PhotoHunt ~Sheer

The PhotoHunt for today is 'Sheer'

I have lot's of little scraps of  'Sheer' fabric lying around . . .

I use them to make my little Wedding Cake Toppers . .  . you can find (and order) them on ETSY: Gimme Some Sugar Y'all

I never know what little scraps I might be using . . .

This one was a special Wedding Cake topper for my daughter a few years ago ~ for her wedding in the sand with the fancy blue shoes.

Another Happy Wedding Couple

I have created another happy wedding couple (at least until football season really gets underway)

This was a special couple for a friend, for her son's wedding. She quickly learned that the mother of the groom has little say in the wedding . . . but we did this for the rehersal dinner.
And it was a huge hit.

This cute couple are a 'mixed marriage' as we say in Alabama ~ an Auburn girl and a Roll Tide guy. Since it is Fantasy . . . I dressed them each in their school colors holding hands.

She is wearing a maxi dress and carrying her orange and blue shaker . If I'd known she was a Jax State Ballerina, I would have added white boots with pom-poms.
These couples always involve lot's of pinning and glueing. (and a bit of imagination)

The final result was a cute cake topper that resembles both the bride and the groom. I'll post another photo of the table setting at the country club.

Don't forget that you can always go to my Etsy page at Gimme Some Sugar Y'all to see some of the other cute Wedding Cake Topper's I have done. I also have ideas on Pinterest.
Give me a shout if you have a wedding in the future . . . I have great deals for Bloggy friends.

Y'all enjoy ~

Friday Favorites ~ Nutcracker Sheriff

I'm so excited about my newest wedding couple ~
It's fun to create these custom cake toppers.

This was a cute couple from Minnisota, who are having a holiday wedding.

He is a state police officer ~ you can see the sheriff's badge on his sharp Nutcracker uniform.

She has a beautiful flowing ballgown ~ with red shoes peeping underneath.

I know the wedding will be beautiful and wish them years of happiness.

Newest Favorite Couple

This is my newest favorite little couple ~
It's another wedding cake topper, check my ETSY shop Gimme Some Sugar for others!                         

I say 'little' . . . He stands a good foot taller than the bride.
So of course, I had to make the couple match them.

They are looking forward to a small wedding in just a few weeks . . . This will be a great momento of their special day.

and then an exciting life . . .

I wish them nothing but happiness and peace in their new lives.

Do you have a friday favorite today?
