Wedding Cake hunt!

Alright, Other than the venue and the flower, what else I need?

Wedding cake

Yes, A wedding cake.

I personally loves chocolate wedding cake, just the fact that I don’t like traditional white icing wedding cake. There’s few places I have looked up for wedding cake.

  • Noisette Pastry
    http://noisette.ca/
    I heard their cake is very delicious, but its’ too bad when I called that they are already booked up on Aug 8th
  • Marmalade Cake Company
    http://www.marmaladecakecompany.com/
    I heard some rave review from this place, and same thing, when I called, they are booked up too :(
  • Shirley’s Sweet Creation
    http://www.shirleysweetcreations.com/
    I heard this place is pretty good too, then again, it’s all booked :(
  • The Wedding Cake Shoppe
    http://www.theweddingcakeshoppe.com/
    I actually found this place under toronto.com listing, and yes, she’s AVAILABLE, WOOT! Let’s just see if her cake taste good as the look.
  • Dufflet Pastry
    http://www.dufflet.com/
    I am always a fan of Dufflet’s work, however, I am not a big fan of their wedding cake design. lol
    I think if wedding cake shoppe doesn’t work out, then I guess I’ll call up dufflet to see if I can get a cake from there

BlogTO also put an article on the “Best Custom and Wedding Cakes in Toronto“. It’s a good start for you to search for your dream cake.

I also gathered a collection of the cake photos I found online, feel free to download them. However, I did not take those photos so please give a credit to those who actually took those pictures.

Wedding Flower

I guess the next thing after we have decided the reception, it’s flower and decorations.

The Balmoral room’s color is tend to be yellowish, and the door and the framing around the place is tend to be in dark brown. So I guess my best move with the color would be White as main color, and have orange, yellow and either light green or blue as an accent.

Orchid centerpieceRight now my thing about flower is, I LOVE Orchids, Lilies and Calla Lilies. I think they are soo sophisticated and beautiful.

There’s couple things I have to get from a florist:
1. Centrepieces for my guest dinner table
2. Centrepiece for my head table
3. My bouquet
4. My bridesmaid’s bouquet
5. Flower pin for my parents and Alex’s parents
6. Flower pin for Alex’s best man
7. Wedding ceremony flower decoration
8. Flower decoration piece for the sweet table (probably reuse from the wedding ceremony

hmm., and what else? can’t think of anything right now. I will update later.

I actually put together an insipiration piece in terms of flowers that I found online. Feel free to download it and use it as your inspiration piece too.

Our Venue – Old Mill Inn

After going through like 7 places and tons of phone call. We decided to have Old Mill Inn as our reception venue.

Old Mill Inn is situated near Humber River and it’s right next to Old Mill Subway station on Bloor-Danforth Line subway. The reason we choose this place is because..

  1. The price is reasonable and you get 5 hours of open bar!!
  2. The place is located right next to subway, easy access and plenty of space for those who wish to drive.
  3. Old Mill Inn’s style is very victorian-ish and yet very elegant and nice
  4. Awesome place to take pictures over summer because its garden and the fact that the whole place is landscapped!

Here’s a closer look of the room

The only thing about this room is .. there’s no window!! arghh!!

here’s also the spec of the Balmoral room if you are interested. The room fits up to 100 people I think, but I only have 60 people on my list, so I guess there will be plenty of room to walk around :)
