♥ J & J Wedding ♥


Last weekend my cousin Joleigh was married to James in Mill Valley, CA in a vintage themed wedding.  Unfortunately, I had already planned a weekend getaway and was not able to attend.  However, my family reported on all the dancing and merriment as well as shared some pictures with me of the special day - my cousin looked absolutely stunning!  And although I couldn't be there, I did make the happy couple a macaron tower for their dessert table with the help of my friend Thip from Bonbini!  Joleigh and her mother LOVE macarons and I'm sure it has to be rubbing off on James by now!

The making of these macarons was the beginning of the most hectic 2 weeks ever for me.  Although Thip and I make macarons regularly, we have never made them in such a large quantity.  It was a bit of a challenge doing it at home, but I think we did a good job!  


Congratulations to Joleigh & James - Wishing you all the best! ♥

  1. That macaron tower is just great! By chance where did you get the clear tower? I've never seen one like that. I'm getting up the courage to try macarons this week. It's been raining the last few days so I want to wait till that clears. Thank you! Love your sight!
