A Beautiful Wedding


Just one day before Mother's Day, Carly and Ricky said "I DO". It all started last year when I coordinated the groom's sister's wedding. His fiancee Carly, was amazed of the detailed coordination. She told me, "we are getting married next year, I will contact you soon".

Many Months passed. One day I received an unexpected email from Carly! I was very excite to hear from her! "I told you I would contact you", she said.

I was very honored to have a part in their wedding. The day was beautiful with a "beach" theme. The decor` showed the personally of the bride and groom with shells, starfish and sand, it truly made you feel like you were on a beach. The bride was gorgeous and the 200 guest were amazed of the flawless day!

A Wonderful Day at the Wedding Walk











Yesterday was a fablous day at the Wedding Walk of Tacoma! We had over 60 premeire vendors and 6 venues. Each venue had a different theme and design. A Piece of Cake Events, was at the Washington State History Museum. The decor` included a collection of spring colors with shades of pink, green, orange and peach. We transformed three floors in the Washington State History Museum to give the brides an idea of what their ceremony and reception can look like. Inside each venue were premiere vendors such as a DJ's, Baker's, Caterer's and Florist, just to name a few. We would like to give a special thanks to Trendy Events for asking us to show our skills and assist with putting on the Wedding Walk. Also, thank you to Blitz & Co. for the flowers, Wallflowers for providing the pictures and AA Party Rentals for the rental items.

Beautiful Bride, Beautiful Barn!

This past weekend was a blast!  A Piece of Cake Events had a wedding at the Pickering Barn in Issaquah.  Our bride hired us to help out on her big day as “Day-Of” coordinators, and couldn’t thank us enough. “This was perfect!” she said—which described both the ceremony and reception.

The wedding began early in the afternoon and lasted well into the evening. As requested, we were there the entire time to make sure the ceremony and reception was set up exactly how the bride and groom expected.  It was a new location for us, being a barn—but this was not your typical barn! It was very contemporary, a beautiful facility.

Of course, with Christmas just around the corner, the decorations were a beautiful sage green, gold, and white. The bride and her wedding party looked absolutely stunning. Everything went according to plan, and the bride and groom were so thankful that A Piece of Cake Events was there.

 Here is a picture of setting up for the ceremony!

A Candellight Ceremony And A Stunning Reception



We had a very special wedding here at A Piece of Cake Events…it was truly one-of-a-kind. The bride wanted something unique and special for her flowers; especially the décor at the church. Her fiancé liked the idea of having an arbor at the altar---which would look like an arch of flowers above their heads. Well, the bride took that idea one step further and came up with two 12 foot high curly willow and dendrobium orchid “trees” whose branches almost touched over head, forming an arch with long branches of white orchids. Her florist hung orbs of glowing candles from the branches behind the couple to echo the candlelight ceremony. The wedding colors were purple, silver, and white; so the aisle had a white runner and was smothered in thousands of purple and white rose petals. Along the sides of the aisle the bride took tall glass trumpet vases, turned them upside-down to form pillars of varying heights and placed candles on top with more rose petals surrounding them. There were trio arrangements of submerged stock (in white, dark purple, and lavender) with floating candles in the windows, and the only lights on at the ceremony were two spotlights where the bride and groom stood and one on the harpist, who played throughout the ceremony.

The reception at the Des Moines Yacht Club was just as breathtaking. The bride and her aunt made their own centerpieces, echoing the mammoth trees from the church they took silver curly willow branches and white phaelinopsis orchids and placed them in tall, clear flower towers. The head table featured a floral runner of mostly white flowers along each wing of the table that met in the center with an arrangement of various purple and white flowers, cascading down the front of the table. We made the champagne toast memorable by adding a blackberry to every glass, fitting it with the color scheme. After a sweet first dance,  the bride danced with her father to “A Song for My Daughter” and made everyone in the room cry—but the best was saved for last: as the bride and groom exited the reception under and arch of 3 foot long sparklers held by their family and friends, they were met by the father of the bride’s yacht, covered in white fairy lights and ready to sail them off into the sunset.

We will never forget such a gorgeous wedding, or how happy the bride and groom were as they thanked us for our help and left for their honeymoon in St. Lucia!
