Recently, I was commissioned by a bride-to-be to make a bride and groom sugar figurine for her wedding cake. Due to other commitments, I wasn't able to accept her request to bake her a 2 tier wedding cake on one of her wedding reception. Therefore, she requested me to do the figurine as a back-up plan..:) I was given a sample pic above to refer to with some minor modifications.
The specifications for the figurine which I gathered from the bride was:
1) Long, curly and brown colour hair for the bride.
2) Spiky and brown colour hair for the groom.
3) Yellow and white roses hand bouquet for the bride.
4) Green neck tie for the groom and his height should be taller than the bride.
As compared to the sample picture given, I gave this bride a long wavy hair, voluptuous bust, and a waistline :P . As for the hand bouquet, it was rather difficult to attach tiny roses to it, so I settled with blossom-like flowers. As long as it represents yellow and white flowers right...lol :)
I gave him a yellow flower for his corsage and I had a tough time doing his spiky hair ..:)
Do forgive me for the not-so-tidy hairdo coz I'm not a professional hair stylist..hehe..:P It's so fragile it keeps breaking..:)
As I'm not an expert in figure modelling, I hope this is acceptable. I've done my best but I guess there're still so much room for improvement..:)
Congratulations to the newly weds! May you two find new happiness in each other's company for the rest of your lives. I quote " Happy marriages begin when we marry the one we love, and they blossom when we love the one we married. May you two find love and happiness in each other's arms! "
Thanks so much to the bride for giving me this opportunity to do this figurine for their most memorable day. Cheers! :)
