Sunday Sweets: Wedding Cakes For Music Lovers

Remember when you were an angsty teen in some TERRIBLE mood, but then you'd put on your headphones, crank the volume, and get lost in your favorite songs?

I remember doing that with my Dad's old CD walkman, and I bet it's how a lot us learned to really love music: to put the whole world on pause, close our eyes, and get lost in the sounds.

So today, we're celebrating music:

And we're celebrating music's favorite dance partner, love:

'Cuz these two go together like rock n' roll.

Or like these guitar and saxophone wedding cake toppers:

SO CUTE. I love the bow tie & veil. (And the sheep, hee!)

Are you a traditional, classical music type?

Or maybe you're into more modern, Alternative styles:

Oooh, how about Big Band music?

I love a good Art Deco wedding theme. 

This one feels very K-Pop, right?

 It's just so sweet and bubbly!

And this one needs a good mix of Billy Joel and Elton John in the background:

I love how the piano keys seem to be floating - and the way they turn into music notes!

Here's another gorgeous 1940's style:

Listen close, and you can almost hear "At Last" by Etta James start to play. Mmm.

Or maybe you'd like something peppier to dance to:

With this one, the notes are already dancing!

There are lots of classic black and white music note cakes out there, but this one stands out with its feathery painted middle tier:

Also those shimmery flowers! Adds just the right note of softness.

And finally, a pop of sweet color:

Get it? Pop? Ahem.

Completely smitten with the subtle aging on the keys and sheet music, and that fantastic flower topper - it's just so different and beautiful!

I hope these made you smile, gang, and also inspired you to turn on some music today. In fact, I challenge you to dig through YouTube or iTunes and find that album 13-year-old you knew by heart. Then give it a listen. Sing along. Dance with your dog. Or maybe just put on your headphones, crank the volume, and let yourself get lost for a while. I bet we could all use that right now.

I thought these fit the love & music theme perfectly:

Sterling Silver Rose Treble Clef Necklace

Plus they're SO pretty! I think the classic rose is my favorite, but the sunflower is a close second.
