Tip of the Day: Personalize your groom's boutonniere! Include a fun 3D sticker (check the scrapbooking section of your local craft store) or other small trinket as a nod to his favorite hobby or profession. The groomsmen should all wear the same design, just so it doesn't look too disparate, but the groom, the dads and even the little guy can all get their own personalized accents.

Tip of the Day: To make a simple cake look grander and more expensive, create different textures or designs for each tier. Start off by going for height, with platters or sugar paste flowers in between each cake layer. The middle tier should be the focal point of the cake — include a pretty accent or motif like this rose design. Leave the top and bottom layers completely bare. The overall effect is lovely and creates more bang for your buck.
