The presentation of a cake (or any food item) speaks to a person more than the taste. After all, it's the first thing that your guests notice as soon as it is served. A top-notch wedding cake LOOKS appetizing, the taste comes second.

This couple chose a three-tiered basic white wedding cake designed to fit the theme of their wedding. Even though the style is common, it's the decor that makes it look so sweet and elegant. Fresh flowers topped this fresh cream cake in pink and peach with a side of berries. The texture of the cake scraper on this sweet treat gave it a raw and delicious appearance.

At this ceremony, the meal started by serving small portions of homemade pasta with cherry tomatoes and zucchini. This delicious treat was followed by a mouthwatering plate of roasted veal with a side of sautéed vegetables.

Italy is also known for producing some of the best cheese in the world, so a variety of cheese on cheeseboards was also kept as a side dish. And lastly, for the dessert, the couple sliced the tasty cake!

This wedding organizer won hearts by creating a handwritten menu board and placing it on the side of the table. Plain white dinner plates with silver utensils were organized neatly alongside some crystal glasses. Overall, the table decor was filled with unique elements which left the guests gushing for a long time.

From Anais Stoelen – “I envisioned creating an ethereal wedding inspiration shoot / bridal portrait session filled with romance and tenderness to inspire brides all over the world. On the Tuscan hillside of Fiesole in Italy I had the chance to do exactly that.

Together with a team of dedicated artists we created this ethereal editorial at Villa Di Maiano – it was a dream location! Everything about this estate whispers romance, from the old prison to the cellars, lemon trees, beautiful garden fences, architecture, and of course – olive trees.”
