Pretty Elegant 'Wedding' Cakes

When you attend (or photograph) a wedding day you get a chance to see the couples vision come to life, the one day finale of months, or quite often years of planning. What you maybe don't see is all the people who work behind the scenes to make everything come together as planned; included among these good folks would be the cake makers, who'll have put in weeks of preparation, chatting to the couple, researching ideas, sourcing details, sketching designs before finally spending the week before the wedding locked away in the kitchen.
