So Sad They’re Gonna Die in like One Second

Submitted by: Unknown

Talk about taking a leap of faith. These daredevils are literally jumping into their nuptials. Or repelling into them…although I’m pretty sure they’re bungee jumping. It would be kind of cool if the wedding party all jumped down after them, but I’m guessing that wasn’t part of the plan. Either way, I hope there was some good food and a full bar once they hit the ground. Just the thought of bungee jumping puts me in need of a beverage.

A pretty rad album cover invite

I tried to send this article to everyone yesterday but it didn't go through.
I've seen these types of invites before that can be themed with other things during your reception, like the wedding programs and place cards. You can add your own songs on a CD to go with the invite.

A pretty rad album cover invite

via 100 Layer Cake by amanda on 8/26/10

Undeniably one of the coolest, more intricate, well thought out invites we’ve seen in a while. They even scuffed up the outer jacket to make it look vintage. Nicely done Alyssa and Josh, nicely done.

From FPO.

Beach Themed Funny Wedding Cake Topper

I thought this whole cake was fantastic for a beach theme wedding, especially in New England.  But it's the lobster wedding cake topper that really 'takes the cake'.  That and the little message on the back.

Cake awards in Australia

Here's a little news straight from Australia about the winner of the NSW Cake Art Challenge 2010, Vanessa Wardle.

LOCAL mother of two Vanessa Wardle had no idea that the joy she got from decorating cakes for family and friends would eventually lead her to be named one of NSW’s best cake decorators.

Mrs Wardle’s wedding cake took out the top prize in the bridal elegance section at the Cake Decorators’ Guild of NSW Cake Art Challenge 2010.

Notice the incredibly delicate lace filigree shards on the cake and as the cake topper?  This cake took Mrs. Wardle 90 hours to make!

Multi-cultural wedding cake toppers

Here's an example of an international wedding cake topper that was featured on Wedding Nouveau.

Here's what they had to say about them:

The joy of celebrating culture (especially in fusion weddings in which the bride and groom are from different backgrounds) is that you are expressing your commitment to each other in ways that although on the outskirts, seem different…are more similar than ever.  By customizing your toppers, whether it’s on a cake, handcrafted invitation, centerpiece accent or gift favor, it’s always nice to infuse your design with a the essence that is uniquely yours.  Get a look at these charming, hand crafted toppers by the amazing Kira Kira Hoshi.

Urban Blues theme ideas

AisleDash showed us some ideas for using an Urban Blues theme:

How to Get the Look: It's royal, it's tranquil, it's cool: This watery hue is America's favorite color. To make a splash in sophisticated settings, use blue flowers and accents with contemporary furniture for a look that's sexy and smart. 

Here's what it looks like:

You could do any type of wedding cake topper and just have your cake designer use lots of blue to accent it.

Check out more ideas at Funny Wedding Cake Toppers. 

EcoChic Ideas

When choosing the theme for your wedding, one idea is to go Eco-Chic.  AisleDash, from Bride's Magazine, just showed us some examples.

How to Get the Look: Making earth-friendly choices for your wedding never looked so appealing. Using just of one of these accents can help the world -- recycle, go acoustic, use natural and sustainable materials, serve your guests local specialties to be stylishly green.

Here's the picture they show for an example:
