blog Love {let’s eat cake!}

Today I came across something I had to share! Melissa at Masterpiece Weddings is hosting her first National Fundraiser, in the form of a Wedding Cake competition to support St. Jude’s Children’s Hospital! Chef’s and amateurs alike will have the opportunity to compete before Judges that include World Renowned Pastry Chef’s, and celebrities on their artistic abilities, intricate designs, and taste! At the end of the competition, spectators will be asked to join in on the fun and taste the cake!

I couldn’t be more excited about what an amazing event this is to sponsor such a fabulous organization! They are looking for donations of all sorts to make this event a reality—from decor and volunteers to monetary donations and celebrity judges. Check out their Wish List, to see if you can help!

If you’re a fellow wedding blogger, I know Melissa would love it for this information to get passed on to your readers—-perhaps they can help! To learn more about St. Jude’s, click here.

tanning tips for your wedding

It’s May, and as the sun starts to shine, it’s time to think about protecting your skin from the sun, and getting that pre-wedding glow for those wedding pics! If you’re going to hit the tanning bed, now is a great time to get started for your summer wedding. Find a reputable tanning salon in your area that will help you to determine your skin type, and set you up on a gradual tanning schedule that will get you golden without burning you to a crisp!

To protect your skin, you can also go with a UV-free option. If you’re thinking about a faux tan for the first time, it can be a little scarey! You’ll want to weigh which option is best for you, from doing it yourself, to getting a professional application.
