Walking Kevin down the aisle.

 

It was hilarious to have Kevin and Kristie's friends playing the role of the flower boys.

They played really well their role and did such a good job that everybody was laughing when they threw the rose petals around.

Cake and desserts

Cake and dessert station.

 

Maily made this cake for Kevin and Kristie.  It was beautiful and very unique as she used rice paper to make the flowers and she created a marble look using fondant to cover the cake.

The color of cake (green) is also perfect as the weeding is outdoor surrounded by lust green Redwood.

Lots of miniature cakes for the guests.
