Here’s a Wedding Dress… You Can Eat!

By posted January 16, 2010, 3:23 pm | Comments: 22

By now, we all know that weddings costs can be quite high. Thankfully, there are resources out there to help any couple do some of the work themselves to save some cash. There are also companies that provide more than one service, for example wedding photographers that offer cinematography and venues that provide catering. But, are brides ready go one step further and physically combine their wedding dress and their cake? No chance, but it’s a neat concept nonetheless.

The cake/dress was made by Lukka Sigurdardottir and is completely extraordinary. Though we probably won’t see a bride wearing her cake anytime soon (unless the groom smashes it in her face), it’s refreshing to see what inspiring things are being done with both cakes and dresses these days. By the way, if you checked out our wedding planning checklists, you’ll find that ordering your wedding cake four to five months before the wedding will ensure that you won’t have to worry about the cake as you get closer to the big day.

Awesome Star Wars Wedding Cake

If you’re a sci-fi geek, what better way to celebrate your special day than with an amazing Star Wars themed cake. This toppled AT-AT is one of my favorite cakes to date. I love the mini Admiral Akbar and Mon Mothma but I think maybe the topper are the Ewok cupcakes that accompany this masterpiece. I know there are a…

Decorating the Wedding Cake

For some brides, the idea of the wedding cake is something that can’t easily be shaken. Having a three-tiered cake decorated and displayed on the cake table is a traditional approach to the wedding desserts. This trend is quickly fading and being replaced with wedding desserts of all varieties. Candy tables, cupcakes, pies and an assortment of other yummy sweets…

Another Fantastic Star Wars Wedding Cake

This wonderful cake comes from Scott Thompson. We’ve seen other Star Wars themed cakes but this one has a few different scenes. Complete with Han and Leia and a scene with Ewoks in the woods of Endor. I think it’s worth pointing out that the railing is modeled on the set by Lake Como in Italy where the Anakin &…

    Well, I’d never wear it, but I sure would eat a heck of a lot of it… Looks yummy

  • http://theresourcefulbride.com Abena

    Looks like a confetti of different cakes stacked together. I would love to see how they made this – - and taste it!!

  • brian

    LOL.. So everyone at the wedding can get a piece of the bride!

  • Evan

    Better hope she doesn’t fart in it.

    • Jennifer

      that’s seriously what you think of when you see this dress? I happen to think it’s quite unique… and beautiful!

    • sam

      i think the fart will smell like vanilla hahahahahahahaha

    Meg B. would you really want to eat a cake that has been worn buy a sweating human being? I find that idea rather disgusting.

  • Penny

    That’s amazing. I don’t see how a bride could ever wear that, but then again, I’m not sure it’s intended to be worn. Would be a cool cake to serve at your wedding though

  • Cakeback

    She’s just standing behind it

      I’ll not eat or wear a dress like that!

  • Gonzobot

    Looks to me like she is standing behind a rounded dome shaped pile of multicolored foam blocks smeared in plaster.

    Sorry to say, but, food companies show wood chips and white glue to advertise breakfast cereal – why would this be any different? Food is terrible to work with, especially for presenting it to camera.

    • Meghan

      Well, of course it’s not a real dress cake. I think it’s just the idea of merging the two. Can’t you just appreciate it for that?

    • Mira

      Sorry to say, but it IS different from advertising breakfast cereal. This is considered art. Fake food to advertise cereal is marketing and presentation; not art.

  • die Pinguine

    Don’t come around here no more.

    (Too obscure?)

    • Jaclyn

      die Pinguine: That’s EXACTLY what I thought of! That Tom Petty song! Then they eat Alice’s dress which is a cake! Weird video…

  • http://www.mybigfatgaywedding.com alisonz

    she looks delicious!

  • Wendy Kaufman

    Looks like the cover of Herp Albert’s “Whipped Cream Delight” album form the ’60s

  • EnglishBob

    I have to say that it isn’t even very artistically done. If it is possible to sculpt ice then why not also cake icing, rather than, as here, just roughly plaster it into a crude dome shape.

    So, does the groom have to eat the cake before the honeymoon night?
