A question that we, at Cabo Flowers & Cakes, get quite often is this: can you copy [and go ahead and insert anything related to a wedding here] from a photo? In this visual age of technology, with everyone looking at images of everything at all hours of the day and night, brides are looking at a lot of photos. You, dear bride, are accessing photos from a hundred different wedding websites, sharing photos on Facebook, and pinning photos of everything you love for your wedding on Pinterest. (Have we mentioned that we would love you to access Cabo Flowers and Cakes’ social media as well? If not, please do!)
With all this being said, the next question is…what do you do with all of these photos that you like (love!) that are assisting you with your wedding planning? Please share them with us, your wedding vendors!
We love your photos (contrary to what other’s may tell you about professional pride, and design aesthetics.) Your photos help us understand what you really, truly are drawn to, and we can help create that for you.
Photos can be used to inspire, to explain…or to copy. To inspire, or to explain, you may show us several photos and say, “I like the ribbon on this…AND the color of that.” We use the photos as a jumping off point to create something unique and beautiful.
But…and we are cool with this…sometimes down here in Cabo, we have brides say, “I want it (the cake, the bridal bouquet, the chuppah) to look just like this!” And we do our best! Sometimes we need to adapt or alter, mostly because of actual flower or ingredient availability in our little southern Baja peninsula. Sometimes we need to do a bit of a change up for weather reasons. (Cabo is hot and sometimes humid, and sometimes we, as the floral and wedding cake experts, will advise as to what works best here.) But all in all, we can re-create your dream wedding cake or wedding floral design based on a photo. Send it to us, let us have a look, and be happy with the results! (Of course, we do also have the disclaimer that while we do the best we can to re-create the exact look of the photo, we are also all individual artists and so there may be some slight variations.) Just like at the beauty salon when you bring in the photo of Jennifer Aniston’s hair style!
While we at Cabo Flowers & Cakes are, of course, huge fans of the traditional white wedding cake, there is still something that just makes us smile about some of the colorful and somewhat funky cakes we’ve been asked to create for weddings here in Cabo San Lucas.
