How chic/gorgeous is this? Surprise bridal shower tea party at the Ritz is officially in the works! :)
Step 1: If you have hired a planner they will give you a heads up when you should cut the cake. If you are sans planner your catering manager will let you know, or possibly your DJ or photographer depending on who has shouldered the time management responsibilities for the day. Your photographer will give you directions where to stand for the best lighting. You’ll want to stand where you can both hold the cake knife to cut into the bottom tier, but still both be in the frame for the picture. And just like your first kiss, don’t rush it! Give your photographer time to catch the moment.
Step 2: Both the bride & groom cut a small triangular piece from the bottom tier together and place it on your plate. This is your last moment to establish a truce before you open up for your new spouse to feed you cake… or to plan your attack. Step 3: Cut into bite-size pieces and then feed each other the pieces. Most brides have spent lots of time (and money) on hair and makeup, not to mention their dress, so smashing it on their face is not cool. And ladies remember that men are competitive spirits and will put frosting on your face if you smear some on his. (via everylastdetail)

Dreamy combination: Tiffany’s 2.5 carat Oval solitaire + shared-setting band ring with diamonds in platinum. It’s all very simple, guys.
Heart cake!

I love combining a black tie affair with a relaxed day-after brunch.
