Rain on their wedding day couldn’t wash those smiles away! {Gympie Wedding Cake}

Some people say rain on your wedding day is a sign of good luck. If they’re right, then Brendan & Allieca must be in for the happiest of all marriages! With their original ceremony & reception site cut off by rising flood waters, their January wedding went ahead despite very wild weather, thanks to a last minute venue change.

When I delivered their wedding cake the day before they were due to marry, I found them still searching for an alternative venue. I was amazed and so impressed at just how calm the couple were under the circumstances!

Below are some photos of their two-tier, heart-shaped ivory wedding cake. The cake was covered with a rolled white chocolate fondant, and decorated with frangipani icing flowers and navy ribbon. Bottom tier: dark chocolate mud cake. Top tier: traditional fruit cake.

Brendan & Allieca were determined not to let the unbelievable weather stand in their way, and I was so relieved for them when I found out that although very brief to avoid being stranded on the other side of town; their wedding ceremony had gone ahead.
