You can find these tips in the latest issue of Clarksville & Hopkinsville Weddings Magazine. Copies of the magazine can be found at local wedding businesses in Clarksville, Hopkinsville, and surrounding areas, OR you can view the magazine online at ClarksvilleBrides.com. After you've read the magazine, be sure to take a moment to share your thoughts about it by completing the quick online survey.

First of all, brides and grooms, you should always book your preferred wedding vendors as soon as possible. Wedding professionals can only take on so many events per weekend so it's important that you reserve their services as soon as you know you want them. That said, we have another great reason to go ahead and book your cake baker this month - Covered with Icing is donating 10% of every cake booked this month to the medical fund of a woman fighting a rare form of breast cancer.
Little know fact: Heather Noble, owner of Covered with Icing, has a pink ribbon cake tattoed on her shoulder! Heather's daughter requested on her 18th birthday that she, Heather, and Heather's mom, a breast cancer survivor, all get pink ribbon tattoos. And they did it together!

Jennifer & Gavin had a couple of gorgeous wedding cakes at their reception, including their traditional wedding cake, consisting of 4 tiers and 150 servings. Their flavors were Vanilla, Strawberry, Chocolate, and Pumpkin Spice for the top tier. The cake was decorated with Handmade Vanilla Buttercream icing and rested on a square silver plateau.

I HAVE to share this cake with you! Ever since I saw Bethany Ann Photography post a photo of this beauty on Facebook, I'm just drawn to it! Everything about the cake is amazing and everything around the cake is amazing! I think so many times couples forget about what is behind/around the cake, not realizing that when they are cutting the cake and people are snapping photos, the background will be right there with them! This was just such a gorgeous backdrop. I love everything about it! Alright, now let's talk cake! What kind of cake did the happy couple choose?? "They decided on a five tier round heavenly confection of Strawberry cake, Carrot cake with cheesecake filling and French vanilla cake, all covered with gorgeous ivory vanilla buttercream. The cake was to be wrapped with ivory fondant ribbons and adorned with rhinestone buckles purchased by the groom’s mother." -coveredwithicing.com/blog
