Sash and Brooch Multilayer Wedding Cake

Remember the sash and brooch idea I shared not long ago for bride’s and bridesmaids’ dresses? Today I’ve got a new sash and brooch idea for you. One that will adorn another star of the wedding show!

How about a wedding cake that features a sash and brooch on each layer? Isn’t it elegant and classy looking? The sashes above—featuring pleats, no less—are made from frosting, but your baker could also use wide ribbon at the bottom of each layer and then accent with gorgeous brooches. One of the wedding colors could easily be incorporated into the cake that way.

Of course, the sash and brooch idea could be carried over into other elements of the wedding as well if the bride and/or bridesmaids’ dresses featured them, too. It’s always kind of fun to tie various elements of the wedding together.

Think your daughter would like this cake idea, MOB? Check with her. You might get the go-ahead to start brooch shopping!

Accent Bridal or Bridesmaid Sash with a Brooch

3544373981_1e396ca374_zMother of the Bride, here is a gorgeous way to accent a sash worn on Wedding Day—a dazzling brooch! The sash itself, of course, is a beautiful accent, but by adding a brooch, the wow factor is taken up to a whole new level.

A sparkling brooch accent will work well for anyone in the bridal party whose attire includes a sash. Whether it’s the bride, the bridesmaids, or even you, MOB, a beautiful brooch will add a special touch that can perfectly complete the wearer’s ensemble for the day.

A brooch will also provide a keepsake memento from this most special of occasions. It can easily be used with other outfits over the years and be a sweet reminder of a wonderful celebration with people you love. Definitely a win-win when it comes to accessories!

If your daughter has chosen gowns—hers or her maids—with sashes, be sure to show her this idea, MOB. And you might even want to shop for a dress with a sash now for yourself, right?!
