Montana Wedding Cakes: Cakes by Jenn

I am always amazed at the talented vendors I find living in the far reaching corners of Montana. Here is a sketch by little known dessert artist and cake baker, Jennifer Regester. She lives just up the road from my home town of Ennis--near Harrison, MT. Her cakes and desserts taste amazing....and I can't wait to work with her this coming year! Who doesn't get excited about dessert! And, like me, she travels all over southwest montana delivering her yummy goodies. She is also a designer at Big Sky Carvers and has a generous design background.

There are few cake designers that take the time to sketch their ideas, but Jenn is one of them. If you would like more information on her work or how to find her...just look at FaceBook! She has some great photos of things she has been working on lately!

This is a sketch that we are working on for a Bride of mine for next August! Enjoy!

Montana Destination Wedding: what you would do for friends

I was priveledged to be a part of Kristi and Josh's wedding in a very partial, yet, wonderful role. Amazingly enough, I have never met Kristi in person, but I know her sister Jeni Fleming, a local jazz artist, very well. I have worked with Jeni for years in the industry and with her non-profit Hand Me Down Some Silver. Whenever Jeni calls, I am happy to help!

Kristi sent me a few photos of what she was looking for for flowers, and since she has such an amazing sense of style, we just helped pull together a few details behind the scenes and the family took charge of the rest!

So, to be completely honest, I only created the bridal bouquet and boutonnier, purchased the flowers for her friend Kathy to put together, and provided the linens. The rest is a complete effort by the family from the dessert tower, place-settings, and everything in-between. I did have several converstations with Jeni about set-up, liquor amounts to order, among other things....but this is what friends do for each other. I am so glad I got to be a part of something so beatuiful!

The Cake...Oh, MY!!!!

I have planned and attended so many weddings, and really, the cake to me is still the super star next to the bride! I get so much joy in sharing my favorite cake designers/bakers with my clients, and even more joy out of the tastings! Seeing what design my clients choose is always fun, and to see what the designers come up with is always AMAZING!!!

The dessert of all desserts, the wedding cake, just can't be replaced by using a dessert bar--which I also love and will put in a future blog, but always splurge for a CAKE---your grandmother will expect it! Here is my ode to the Montana wedding cake and some of my FAVORITES from weddings past....
