Beautiful Wedding Cakes from Bar Harbor Maine

I found myself wanting to order a wedding cake the other day just because it was so beautiful - I don't know if I could have eaten it or just looked at it!  Curious?, click on the link and check out the oval shell wedding cake (decorated with shells, coral, etc.)! You will understand what I am saying!

When I was younger, I always wanted to have my wedding ceremony on the beach (yes in the sand), back then everyone said "no way", that's not a good thing.  Today, it happens and it is a beautiful thing!  Even to have the ceremony on an area such as the Bar Harbor Inn lawns with Frenchmen Bay in the background - it's actually breathtaking!

I even thought at one time how nice it would be to go out on a boat (like the Margaret Todd, on the Bar Harbor Inn pier), have the ceremony out in the water and come back for a reception in the Porcupine Room at the Inn at sunset. How beautiful...

On the end of the Bar Harbor Inn pier sits a beautiful boat.

Come sail with me today..

The Margaret Todd, a four masted schooner waits for your arrival.
