The Wedding Singer

The Wedding Cake

The wedding cake was made with height as its primary goal and was decorated with a spackle and white paint mixture, beads, faux white tea roses, a wedding topper, and painted dowel rods to support the cake. We had a wedding cake already in stock, but I wanted to try my hand at designing a wedding cake for a show, especially one set in the 1980s. 

Wedding Cake Process

Folding Wallet & Brick Phone

For the folding wallet, I used black cardstock, 80’s printed-out credit cards, and fake plastic sleeves created with cut-up Ziploc bag plastic. The Motorola brick cell phone was made from Styrofoam packaging and a hot knife to create details.

Set Dressing and Other Props:

I created centerpieces for each wedding at Touch of Class Catering, and stationary for characters to read and rip up. There was a toy plane used for scene transitions and different kiosks for the mall. This was an incredibly heavy prop and set dressing show.

Four 6" tall standard foam cake rounds decorated with spackle, white tea roses, 2" tall wooden dowels to add height, and Mardi Gras beads painted white.

1980s cake trends included extra height, lots of flowers added to the cake, and decorative pearls.

A pink-to-white spackle mixture with flour was added to stabilize the piping decor.
