Cheese Cake vs Sweet Cake

Having had many requests over the past few months for a real cheese wedding cake I finally caved and attempted to créate something that could match the beauty of the real wedding cakes we are used to at our weddings.  I was not convinced but by decorating it with traditional flowers instead of the usual fruit and displaying it on an elegant console table I was quite pleased with the results.  The wedding guests were all fooled into thinking it was a real cake and were amazed and delighted when then realised it was made from cheese.  Personally I would have been rather disappointed as I have a very sweet tooth. I am not convinced that a cheese cake could ever upstage the beauty and decadence of a sweet hand piped cake complete with sugar flowers but for those of you that dont have quite such a sweet tooth as me this is a good alternative and can be served to your guests as a midnight snack with chutneys, crackers and breads.

Thank you to Agata Jensen for these lovely images www.agatajensen.com

Style Me Pretty - now featuring Weddings in Spain

Rachel Rose Weddings were very honored to have recently been invited by Style Me Pretty to become a member of their elite Little Black Book. Quite an achievement in under two years of business, so you can imagine our excitement when we were then invited to write an article for the site.  I was kindly asked to give their readers by Top Tips on planning a destination wedding abroad and they also chose to feature our beautiful wedding photo shoot at Casa Del Rio.  Scarlett Rose is pretty excited as well as she features regularly in this shoot and has very much enjoyed seeing herself on Mummy´s computer.  You can read the article here http://www.stylemepretty.com/2013/08/06/7-tips-for-planning-a-destination-wedding-from-rachel-rose-weddings/
