Why I Love Being a Wedding Planner...

Every time I considered becoming a wedding coordinator, the thought always seemed too good to be true... like it would be getting paid to eat cake (as my mama always said). And then today I found myself sitting in front of this!

OH YEAH BABY!!! That's a wedding cake tasting from the awesomest (another Bonnie word) Edible Art. I emailed them the other day asking if I could come by to introduce myself and see their work. Nancy emailed me back and encouraged me to stop by. She was so sweet and beyond showing me some of their designs and giving me pricing information, she also asked me if I would like to try some samples. [Insert favorite joke here.] They were SOOO good. I got to try the standard flavors, yellow, vanilla, chocolate, and almond. They were all so wonderful it was hard to pick a favorite, but the almond was excellent and surprising since I don't usually like almond stuff. And the chocolate tasted more like my grandmother's chocolate cakes then I've had before! It was wonderful, and they will certainly be included in the Uncommon Wedding's Little Black Book. (Any Style Me Pretty fans out there?) Anyway, so besides getting paid to eat cake, I also visited an absolutely breathtaking facility this afternoon, and had a wonderful time getting to know the facility coordinator out there. Expect a blog about that in the next few days! Hope everyone is having a great week!

Check out Edible Art if you get a chance! The do wonderful cupcakes and birthday cakes as well.

Tip: No matter how super fabulous the wedding cake is, eating it at 11am on an empty stomach is never a good idea! Always eat something before going wedding cake tasting so that the cake doesn't hit your stomach like a sugar brick. :)
