type it into a cake

after being asked about our wedding details recently by a bride-to-be friend, it reminded me of the wedding cake.  yes, i'm being snooty & talking about our wedding cake. :)
gorgeous on the outside, but also insanely delicious on the inside - guests were licking their plates clean! layers of banana bread cake, peanut butter filling, chocolate fudge cake, creme brulee...mmmm.
thank you to take the cake in chicago!

but the thing that won my heart was the typography we had copied onto the cake.
scott si, an über talented typographer who has done amazing work for coca cola, nike, and tiffany & co was willing to turn our names into art... which then appeared all over our wedding, including the cake.
here's the beauty...

i don't have the original image, but here's the design in reverse - hubby's doing.
 a taste of scott si's intricate work...
