Couture wedding dress cookies by Bea Coup
By admin on December 6th, 2007
Does your wedding dress look good enough to eat? These ones certainly do: they’re by Bea Coup, and each one is hand-piped, meaning that if you want to change the colour of the dress, or make it look more like your own gown, you only have to ask and they’ll do their best to accommodate you. Black tuxedo cookies are also available, and these would be the perfect treat for your bridal shower or hen night, if you’re having one, or just to give to your guests on the day itself. They come in both “large” and “small” sizes, and I definitely know which size I’d choose…

When you’re not a wine buff, picking out the right wine can be a challenge. And whilst you could sample every bottle you see you a) won’t be able to stand up after an hour or to b) are going to have a hefty bill.
I just stumbled upon a recipe for Italian Wedding Soup and thought Bridalwave readers might be interested. While it’s a traditional soup, it hasn’t actually got anything to do with weddings (it’s a mistranslation of the fact that the ingredients go well, or are “married”, together), it still could be a cute dish to serve at your own wedding (Italian or otherwise).
Mmm, biscuits! Great as favours, snacks, or even as an alternative to wedding cake (heresy! – Camilla),

Key members of the bridal party always deserve a special gift and what can be better than chocolates especially when they are as elegant as these? The white chocolate hearts are flavoured with passion fruit and handpainted, no less. They’re a bit pricey, so you may want to reserve them for your very favourite people like your mum (or keep in your room for when the day is finally over) but worth it at 
If any part of your wedding is happening outdoors, I’d say these clever little Steady Sticks, which I found over at 
As a dedicated coffee addict, I can’t help but like the idea of these 
I kid ye not, this is indeed a pork pie wedding ‘cake’. There, that’s all of the non-meat eaters amongst you completely traumatised. Vegies aside, meat eaters planning a buffet who want a real talking point amongst their savoury dishes might quite like to try this British pie. You can have a single layer from £24 or pull out all the stops with a tiered version that can be personalised with names, dates and a message. This one is from 
Know of a couple who are into wine (I mean really into it, rather than just into necking it)? Berry Bros & Rudd have a huge selection of fantastic and original wedding pressie ideas. You could set up a 
Words can not describe how utterly adorable these miniature cakes are. You could dispense with a wedding cake altogether and serve these instead, perhaps instead of a pudding at the wedding breakfast? or you could gift them to a few chosen members of your retinue.
Paul, the French bakery and patisserie have just opened a new shop in London’s Brompton Road and have also announced a new range of wedding cakes which, if they are as amazing looking as these cakes, should be absolutely delicious.
How cute are these chocolate favours, shaped to look like miniature wedding cakes? They’re from Godiva and are part of a range of chocolate favours, all more delicious-looking than the last. Each piece comes in a box with a lid and a ribbon and these particular chocolates are also available in white chocolate (pictured are milk chocolate filled with dark chocolate ganache). But arguably the best chocolate in the world doesn’t come cheap – they cost $38 for four.
Now, I know wedding cake can be fattening, but this is taking the health kick just a little far! It’s a crocheted wedding cake, and if you have some spare time on your hands during the run-up to your wedding (as if!), you can make it yourself, with a little help from the free pattern you’ll find at
