Come behind the scenes at this beautifully styled wedding at Hedsor House; a sought after country house wedding venue situated on the Buckinghamshire/Berkshire border, with a contemporary wedding cake design stealing the show at the foot of the famed Hedsor staircase
I was thrilled when I received the enquiry for this wedding cake; not only because the venue was Hedsor House (one of my favourite venues) but also because the couple where set on having a contemporary cake design – one that was beautifully simplistic. My favourite style of cake.
When I arrived at Hedsor on a beautifully sunny August morning, the usual buzz of wedding set up activity was taking place. The team at Seventh Heaven events were creating the most beautiful floral displays and the couples chosen caterers, Lush by Tom Kerridge were busy setting up the gorgeous reception space.
When it came to the cake design, the couple were inspired by designs from Olivia Cerletti of A Cake Story; in particular her viral ‘The Soul Design with its contemporary style and paired back detailing. They also loved the narrow and tall tiers that feature in many of my designs so we merged the two elements to come up with their own unique wedding cake design.
The cake was set up at the foot of the beautiful Hedsor staircase on a tall candelabra stand to give it even more height and was surrounded by floral arrangements from Seventh Heaven, giving it a stage all of its own.
