Over the last year or so I’ve become outright obsessed with simple, single tier cakes decked out with a bit of pretty bunting, a bunch of fresh flowers, colorful pinwheels, or a great personalized cake topper. It’s easy to make the cake on your own or just grab a plain cake from a local bakery …

Happy Monday morning, everyone! How was your weekend? Mine was busier than planned, but my husband and I did find time for a dinner and movie date. I also updated and renamed my personal blog, Sweet Notes, starting the year off with a new focus. It’s completely different than The Sweetest Occasion, but you’re welcome …
There are few words that truly describe this wedding inspiration shoot. Stunning. Magical. Beautiful. Gorgeous. That is certainly a start. Sent over by powerhouse duo Heidi of White Loft Studio and The Sweetest Occasion favorite Kate of Beautiful Days, I am in love with every last detail. A flower girl in fairy wings. Pretty, fresh …
While spring and summer weddings are incredibly popular, I find the romance of a winter wedding completely irresistible.

As soon as I spied this incredibly fun travel inspired dessert buffet by Sweets Indeed on Amy Atlas Events I tucked it away in my favorites. I stumbled upon it again over the weekend and couldn’t resist sharing it with you. I love all of the vintage map details and the hot air balloons are …
Spied recently on Sweet Paul, I love the look and feel of these simple strings of shells for a beach wedding or seaside celebration. Carefully use a hammer and nail to pound small holes into each shell and then string together with twine or string. Use shells collected together or from past family vacations for …
