The wedding cake was AMAZING. It was presented on wooden tree cake table and instead of one cake they had four which were beautifully baked and decorated. The flavours were red velvet, lemon, rose and pistachio and chocolate and violet. They also had a mini bride and groom Totoro cake toppers.

The guest book was a illustration that all the guests coloured in and wrote their name on, which I thought was really original and the guests really enjoyed getting creative!london geek wedding_0028

 

Speeches were delivered before everyone tucked into an amazing meat and cheese buffet catered for by the pub. I can guarantee it is super yummy!
