The warm 70-degree weather today in New York City has got us thinking of outdoor wedding celebrations. If you're hosting a more casual afternoon reception, I love the idea of covering tables with cheerful checkered linens. To match, ask your baker to create a wedding cake with a check pattern, like this whimsical design by Ellen Baumwoll at Bijoux Doux Specialty Cakes.
If you have a wedding cake you'd like to submit for the blog, please email photos and a brief description to Heather Lee at contact@brides.com.
