The cake was designed for the couple by Elizabeth Brace of Parkersburg. It was constructed of four tiers - three of vanilla and one milk chocolate.
The base was stacked with columns separating each of the top two tiers. Between the middle tiers was a small cherub playing his flute and sitting in a fountain filled with flowers spilling down and onto the cake.
The entire cake was iced in ivory buttercream and decorated with burgundy blossoms and handmade drop flowers of royal icing and placed in a sweep from the top to the bottom tier. The cake topper was also handmade to match with a cathedral backdrop.
A dinner reception immediately followed the ceremony in the fellowship hall.
