Cake Vendor: Sweet Element

Today’s Photo Wednesday is going to be different in that I didn’t take any of the images! Today I’m featuring a wedding cake vendor – Jen Roberts of Sweet Element! Her cakes are works of edible art! They are creative yet sophisticated!

Kheng + John Ceremony @ NYC Marriage Bureau

I have known Kheng since college and although she is actually half Chinese half Burmese, she’s always had more pride in her Burmese culture. So I was excited to see Kheng wearing a traditional Burmese wedding dress for her City Hall ceremony and luckily they found a gold tie for John the day before. Kheng had something with gold in everything she wore, from her hair to her dress to the veil, even the flowers! Good thing it wasn’t too overwhelming. Gold was such a great color for the both of them!

It’s so refreshing to see the bride wear a boutonniere instead of the guy! And it’s sooo pretty! Kheng looked great – so glamorous!

Kheng and John are so great! They didn’t mind sitting in front of the radiator to pose for their images.

As if there wasn’t enough gold, the Manhattan Marriage Bureau has this beigey gold mosaic wall that I thought would look good.

kjl t Kheng + John Ceremony @ NYC Marriage Bureau

As I mentioned before in a previous post, I will just be a guest at the banquet and while I was there, I was ordered not to take a lot of  pictures and just to have fun. Well I did do just that but I had to show that some of my images were used at the banquet and they were displayed in really cool picture frames. They looked great! I’m really pleased with their choices!

anouk + jonathan wedding

Anouk and Jonathan decided at the spur of the moment to get married at Brooklyn’s City hall - so spontaneous! Side note: The great advantage of getting married at Brooklyn’s Marriage Bureau is that it’s definitely less crowded and really close to the subway station. They were really fun to shoot – they were goofing off, acting silly and joking around. I like their free spirits!
