The Best of 2014: Cakes

The Best of the Best from our features in 2014 continues! Either these details have been wildly popular on Pinterest or there was a buzz about them on social media, we have rounded them up into posts according to their respective categories.

Today, we are sharing one of my other favorite wedding details ever… the cake. Covered in delicious sugary goodness, these designs take the cake (see what I did there?) when it comes to Hampton Roads wedding inspiration. Tiers and layers, rustic and classic, detailed and simple, these cakes are gorgeous. So without further ado… the best of cakes from 2014!
