Next Featured Wedding Sneak Peek - Carisse and Todd

All images courtesy of Chrissy Lambert Photography

Our next Featured Wedding on cakelava.com can be described as Gorgeous and Unforgettable! Carisse and Todd are a gorgeous couple, the colors and decor were striking, the vendors did an incredible job and Rick amazed everyone with their jaw dropping wedding cake -- which will remain a surprise until we reveal it in their Featured Wedding. Carisse and Todd were a true pleasure to work with and such a gracious couple. They booked us about a year out and left the cake design completely up to Rick's imagination. They encouraged creativity, FUN, and wanted lots of color, and it was clear when they showed us some of Rick's cake styles they liked that we were in for a very good time with this couple!

Carisse and Todd's wedding at the picturesque Lanikuhonua, happened less than a month ago, on April 26th, the same date of the I Love Kailua Town party we did, with the hundreds of cupcakes. To see our adventures leading up to Carisse and Todd's wedding, you can read about it on the blog. We were beyond tired and running purely on adrenaline when we arrived at their wedding and were instantly met by both Carisse and Todd and a whole bunch of their guests who treated Rick like a rock star. Speaking of rock stars, check out their vendor list -- an A-list of some of the best wedding vendors here! Thank you Mona and Jen for providing the list!
