Real Weddings: Orange Floral Fun

WED #1 Farver_0977

For your Cabo wedding, we highly recommend orange! Remember your elementary school days, and when you learned about the color wheel? Well, orange and blue are complementary colors (translation: they go really well together!) and we have lots of blue here in Cabo San Lucas.  Blue sky and blue ocean…and lots of it!

So…after our art lesson…see for yourself! Our orange  flowers on your ceremony chuppah (like these at a Casa Dorada wedding planned by Tammy Wolff of Cabo Wedding Services)…

Real Wedding: Keely & Jeff

What a pleasure it was to work with Keely & Jeff, and their wedding planner, Katie Thompson, of Dazzle ‘Em Event Design,  on their wedding florals!

FullSizeRenderWe first met the cute couple when they came in January of this year for a site tour and floral meeting . At this meeting, we had a great time playing with the flowers, with Keely (working together with our floral designers) coming up with the perfect way to arrange a lot of precious small vases on a rectangular wooden farm table.

The end result of that meeting? The amazing floral decor you’ll see below.

Ceremony location: Cabo del Sol Golf Clubhouse Beach. We created a simple arch, framing the crashing waves at this amazing beach venue.

From the bridal bouquet, to boutonnieres, to the flower girl head wreaths, this couple’s florals were created with love & creativity!

What’s On Top Of Your Cabo Wedding Cake Matters

When designing your Cabo wedding cake, one of the things we always want to talk about is: how will you top your cake? It’s an important question because your cake topper plays an important part of your wedding cake cutting celebration.

Your cake topper for your Cabo wedding is a perfect chance for any destination wedding bride to bring a bit of home with her and to make her mark on her wedding decor!  This bride and groom brought this cake topper with them, with H as the initial for their newly shared last name, and with a silhouette design of their beloved dog they’d left at home for the week-end. They made their wedding cake personal…for them!0750KJWPP

Let our officiant create the ceremony you’ve dreamed of (but weren’t sure how to put into words)

Wed #3
We don’t think it’s any secret that we LOVE Cabo weddings! We have been providing flawless flowers, dramatic decor and class-act cakes to our beloved clients for many, many years. We’ve also been providing wedding officiant services for the past few years, but thought, hey, it’s time to tell the world a little bit more about who our wonderful officiant is.
Wed #2 - small
Meet Joel Lopez Taylor. Handsome, isn’t he? But he’s also a special person, who is gifted with a spirit to be of service.  As an administrative employee for Cabo Flowers & Cakes, he was witness to thousands of weddings, as he prepared the florals and decor for these celebrations.  With a desire to be more involved, his position evolved into working with brides and grooms to create the ceremony that they had dreamed of, but weren’t quite sure how to put into words. Joel works with bridal couples to create a truly unique wedding ceremony. (for those couples who are less creatively inspired, he can provide  wedding script templates that can be used as a whole or cut an paste from to create the ceremony that you want.)
Note: Cabo weddings (unless performed by a licensed Mexican judge) are all symbolic, non-legal, non-denominational ceremonies.
To book Joel as a minister for your Cabo wedding, please contact him at: joeltaylor78@hotmail.com or call the Cabo Flowers & Cakes offices at (011 52) 624 105 145

How White Bridal Bouquets Are Bringing Sexy Back

2013-09-01 14.51.40

The classic white bridal bouquet is our #1 requested bouquet at Cabo Flowers and Cakes! And we fully support this fabulous bouquet!  But just as Justin Timberlake sang (a long time ago), we believe in bringing sexy back and so we feel like jazzing up the classic white bouquet…just a bit! (Don’t worry….nothing too drastic!)

bridal bouquetTo enhance the classic white bridal bouquet, it’s all about what are the little additions (extra unique or special flowers or greenery) that make the bouquet stand up and dazzle. This bouquet (above) includes a touch of Belles of Ireland. (Photo credit: Amy Bennett)

How about adding white anemones, succulents, and green hydrangea & eucalyptus? This used to be a white bouquet until we transformed to it into a super-cool, super-gorgeous, extra special bridal bouquet with a white base!  Spectacular! 
2013-05-18 13.21.16

White Mums and green hydrangeas add beautiful color and texture to what could’ve been a traditional white bouquet.

2013-01-04 11.34.24

There are lots of ways to play this game! 2013-02-16 13.28.33

And don’t forget how different textures of white (and different styles of white flowers) help up the glamour element as well.

Looking for a traditional white bouquet for your Cabo wedding, but want to make it YOURS? Look no further than Cabo Flowers and Cakes floral designers…we’re bringing sexy back to the traditional white bouquet!

4 Ideas You Can Steal From Wedding Cake Trends in 2016

2016 is still a new year, so it’s not too late to continue looking at wedding trends! Our focus this blog is…the coolest new wedding cakes.  The trends in wedding cake design are fun and colorful…perfect for a Cabo wedding!  Check out our favorite 4 trends for 2016 – we are excited to create these for you! So…let’s get started…

Trend #1: The naked cake in CHOCOLATE! (Yes, the naked cake was really popular in 2015, but almost always in vanilla or a neutral color/flavor. For 2016, the hip way to create this cake is by embracing the chocolate, and letting it all hang out!)

Trend #2: Gold flaking on the cake! Not the whole cake…just a touch of shine. Let that cake glow!

Trend #3: The color drip! It’s actually a sweet flavored icing – delish – that also adds a touch of the creative to your cake design.

Trend #4: The geometric wedding cake! Either the shape of the actual cake or the shape of the design on the cake…both options are magical!

These Trends are the Secret Ingredient to Wedding Fabulousness!

With the first month of 2016 coming to a close (can you believe how quickly January has flown by!), we wanted to highlight a few more wedding trends that we think are adorable and truly fabulous and should be brought here to Cabo immediately!

cabo-san-lucas-weddings

  1. Especially with a destination wedding like this one in Cabo, it can be difficult to include all of our besties, especially our furry ones! So what better way to include them, then to give their photos a place of honor at the reception. elegant-pink-flower-table-garland-runners-for-wedding-centerpiece-ideas
  2. Instead of linen table runner, try a floral table runner on a simple white linen. Lined with candles, this adds the drama of hundreds of flowers, still leaving room for your guests to be able to chat across and down the long table.

TaylorGeoff-Wed-2143.  Greenery, and lots of it, is really hot right now, and it’s not just limited to the table.  Hanging greenery, especially in a location like Cabo where for most of our venues, literally the sky is the limit, this adds an amazing view from the tables.

4. The flowers should, of course, scream glamour, but let’s not forget about the vase! Clear vases, emphasizing the beauty of the stems, with rocks (or shells, or jewels, or seaglass…the list goes on) are clean and simply gorgeous.

REAL LIFE WEDDING: Mallory & Evan

MalloryEvan43

Welcome to Mallory & Evan’s special day! It’s bright, beautiful and full of fun! We at Cabo Flowers & Cakes loved creating the flowers and floral decor for this exuberant couple for their dream destination wedding in Cabo! Once again, we also loved working with these amazing vendors here in Cabo: Beth Dalton, owner of For You, I Do Weddings and amazing photographer, Daniel Jireh.  (Thanks for sharing the photos, Daniel!)

Mallory & Evan’s chuppah (shown above) was so creative and showcased their happy personalities perfectly! Those balls are officially called “pomanders” and we were so pleased with this whimsical wedding look!

MalloryEvan16

We also had a blast creating this beautiful bouquet!  Mallory wanted color and succulents, and we were happy to oblige!

MalloryEvan21

Her bridesmaid bouquets were similar (just a bit smaller) and added even more pops of color throughout the wedding!

MalloryEvan24

One of our favorite parts of Mallory & Evan’s floral design were these luscious hair flowers!  What true beauty…just what every bride wants for her wedding day!

Congratulations, Mallory & Evan!  Thanks for making Cabo Flowers & Cakes such a large part of your special day!
