@@hafsaali2058 ooh yes i would love to see laurie recreate some 5-star cakes!
Omg! I can't believe she had an actual tornado hit on her wedding day! That's so devastating but I'm glad she made the most of it and was still able to get married!! Cake was beautiful. I would have picked the same choice. Congratulations 😊
Rightttt!!!! Everyone dreads rain on their big day and this queen got a tornado and made it through!!
@@TheIcingArtist it's just extra good luck on their marriage hopefully lol🤣
@@TheIcingArtist it was a very stressful day 😂 one of the most stressful I’ve ever had
The fact that Laurie is doing this for her is so kind😊
It was extra good luck!
The part where olive was in the wedding dress was so ADORABLE. What a cute idea. 😂
Literal tears!!!!!! 😭
@@TheIcingArtist I love your videos. Thank you for the quality content. 🥰
I almost cried when I saw that. Too cute.
same, that baby is a BORN STAR, look at her grinning for the camera so perfectly!
Who else thought Lori was going to make the cake herself? 😭
Me!
Mee too 😪😭 I thought that was going to be the big surprise at the end... that Laurie made it 🤩
Me 😩
Yess
😂👀☝🏼
Laurie, I love this so much!!! 💖 absolutely a pleasure getting to work with Emilie & Lukas on bringing their dream cake to life 🥹💖 thank you for choosing me to be a little part of their big day. 🌷
Thank YOU so much for capturing the vision and bringing it to life in such an incredible way!! P.s. all the footage of the cake making.....!!!!!!
Your cake is amazing! Really worth every penny. Thanks for bringing us behind the scene.
The cake was gorgeous ; you are so so talented !
You’re so talented! Gorgeous work 😍
I just subscribed to your channel! Your art background and the beautiful results are stunning and I can't wait to see more from you! 🌻 Following from Seattle!
Wow! Do Alexandria and her team ever get a day off? I just can't imagine the time it takes to make one of those cakes. I'm blown away. True artistry. Her cakes belong in a museum.
SOOOO mnay hours went into this!!
No days off the week I did this cake! But yes, usually a day or two whenever there are no deliveries 🥰
@@FinespunCakes This cake was the most beautiful that I`ve seen!
@@FinespunCakes you are next level talented! That cake was a masterpiece, brava! 👏🏼👏🏼👏🏼
I can now understand why wedding cakes can cost so much, the amount of behind the scene hours aside from the time to make the cake completely makes me understand the cost especially for there will to provide a service like Alexandra did
I was wondering what a 3000$ cake would be like and I really understood it when I saw the entire package. Like, the tastings, the consulting, your specific wishes and the HOURS AND DAYS she spent on that. Wow. I'm an artist myself and I know it's really controversial how you put a price on art. But after seeing some of this huge process, I can imagine it was justified.
Prices are so different in Europe/Austria. No one in their right mind would pay so much for a cake. One ordinary cake costs about 30-40€. I had seven different cakes including my 2tier wedding cake and petitfours and payed 400€. I worked as a pastry chef too, the most expensive cake my shop ever made was a 1.20m long sailing ship priced at 700€ with inflation nowadays maybe 1000€ but not more.
I loved that Alexandria was willing to show us the cake assembly process!!! It turned out so good
Hey! I worked this wedding! Loved the cake in person! Awesome to see it on your channel:)
Thanks for coming and saying hi!!! You guys all pulled everything together at the venue amazingly and really helped us all make the best of the situation!
Hi! Do you know where they got the chair covers from? My wedding is in 3 weeks and I still haven’t found nice chair covers :)
You are awesome for making this work for her! I've worked weddings and it can be tough when everything goes right! Sounds like you did an amazing job!
@@ShyGetsHi thank you!! Appreciate it:)
What a beautiful cake. Loved that she vlogged some of the steps she went through to make the cake……those flowers are amazing , it was fun to see some of the process. Unbelievable that the venue was able to regroup after the storm and still be able to host a wedding….plus the wedding photos looked beautiful.
I love those steps too.
Can we just talk about what a kind and loving person Lori is. She is so thoughtful. She is one of my dream people to meet. ❤️ 🍰 Also congratulations to you, Emilie and Luke, the newlyweds 💒 ❤️. God bless 🙏 ❤️
I really loved that Alexander actually filmed the baking of the cake, and talked through some of what she was doing. That is going above and beyond for you and your channel. Those flowers were over the top AMAZING! That cake was AMAZING! WTF? Is up with the tornado though! It looks like they managed to have an amazing wedding anyway. I just realized I am a year late to this show... LOL
You were not joking! Her sugar flower work is BEAUTIFUL!!! Makes me want to get married again…. Well no, but at least have a wedding cake!! EDIT… that photo with Olive in the wedding dress was precious! Can you imagine if when she gets married? Sorry to hear about the storm!
I was a little sad when I realized it wasn't that you made her cake but OH MY GOODNESS that cake is STUNNING! So much fun to see the process!
My husband and I made our wedding cake. It was actually really fun to spend that special time together. It was way cheaper too. Just celebrated our 4th wedding anniversary this last week. 💕
All these people spending fortunes making their special day look like everyone else's special day with the same standard venue. Wedding receptions should all take place in the church's musty, dimly lit basement with an adequate cake made by a family friend you exploit for a free labor.
@@buckaroobonsaibuddy7 That’s great if that’s all you want.
I made my daughters cake and all the sugar flowers and it was beautiful.
Congrats....and good for you guys doing your own cake
That’s nice.
Dude! I love your friend's attitude about the chaos during her wedding. Props to her for having optimism about the whole thing. She's such a trooper.
My wedding, we had to find a way to get out of a blizzard that nearly had us trapped inside the venue where we were staying. We had to get married in our yard just below the snowfall line. It was Springtime in Arizona for crying out loud! 😂
Here is an idea: what if you did the 3 bakery making an expensive cake/ vs you AND you had them vlog their experience similar to how you did in this video! Sure it would be a longer video but that would be super cool 😅 and you made your own version of the cake idea without seeing theirs!!!
not a baker so maybe thats why im so amazed but those flowers look so real! how anyone manages to hand make them let alone that amount is amazing. bakers are truly awesome artists.
oh my god....as I continued watching the video , I almost fell off my chair when you showed clips of the tornado ripping through her venue.....I would have lost my mind....the cake was gorgeous , and the flowers on the cake were even more beautiful than real flowers.....just a beautiful wedding...congrats to the bride and groom....even though the storm caused some damage , it looked like it was a beautiful wedding and looked like everyone had a good time....looking forward to your wedding
I was confused and thought it was a weird commercial🤣
I just looked up Finespun Cakes and holy crap they are a 5 min walk from my house and I had no idea! Will definitely be my new go to for cakes
it's always something! I was married on a cruise and it crashed into the port. it can never just be the perfect day. what a gorgeous bride and what an amazing friend you are doing this for her!!!
Both the wedding dress and the bridesmaid dress are stunning, the baby is so darn cute grinning from the middle of the bed tucked in the dress, and Emily is incredibly lucky the storm hit before the ceremony rather than during the ceremony.
It's so sweet of you to do this for your friend 😀 thank you for sharing the process, the cake looks amazing! I can't believe the hurricane on Emilie's wedding day 😳 I'm glad she was still able to get married and you both looked beautiful 🥰
Can you imagine her telling little Olive about this when she grows up! I am so happy everything worked out in the end and they got married OK. The cake is beyond words WOW! Made my day. You go girls!
That cake was absolutely stunning, and the flower work was beyond belief. Those flowers looked more beautiful than real ones! That baker is worth every penny of what she was paid!
I have taken a few Finespun flower classes and I can honestly say her flowers are insane!!!! ❤️ That wedding cake was gorgeous!
The cake was really beautiful, it looked amazing. This was I really nice thing to do for your friend, y’all have such a beautiful friendship.
Now that is an A+ top notch bakery! Absolutely amazing
I love that they just gave the cake artist ideas and colors for the wedding cake, then they gave her creative freedom to do the rest. All artist love having creative freedom. While it does seem hard to justify thousands of dollars for a cake, this is every cake artists dream come true, a $3,000 budget, plus creative freedom. This is an artists playground, this is what makes them love doing what they do., and when people love what they do, they do it a lot better. When artist are hired and told exactly what to make, it isn’t nearly as fun, and the finish product often doesn’t turn out as magical, because the artist is creating someone else’s design and not their own, and their own creative ideas don’t get used which feels very frustrating for creative people. There is something very magical about giving an artist an idea, a large budget then letting their imagination go wild and letting them push their own artistic limits. I am also glad that they are using their platform to really feature the artist they hired, and they are able to celebrate her for her talents and hard work.
Stunning cake. You should like a really great friend. How crazy is that storm that hit right then? Glad she still had a beautiful wedding.
Anyone else find themselves watching olive instead of the cakes lol what a little darling
Me LOL!!
Olive is adorable, and seems happy to be included!
PS:The cake is next level gorgeous.
Is no-one gonna talk about how cute Olive is?
Okay right??? Legit the true star of the show!
@@TheIcingArtist oh my god! I did not expect you to reply at all yet alone so quickly! I absolutely LOVE your videos and cakes ❤
Mad props to Alexandra! ❤
The queen!!!! instagram.com/finespuncakess
@@TheIcingArtist I love your videos so much thanks for hearting
Omg!! Did not expect the weather montage - so scary. Glad everyone was safe and congrats to the lovely couple and baby!!!
Kudos to Alexandria for filming too! The cake is beautiful and everyone looks so happy!
Wow Alexandria is an artist for sure. That cake was gorgeous and those flowers were so realistic. My god what talent. And what an awesome friend you are to give your friend that for her wedding. Great great video.
The wedding cake is soooo beautiful! This was such a thoughtful idea
This was so amazing of you, and honestly the fact she had a newborn and a puppy, yet still tried to pursue making this on her own was amazing. And a tornado hit on her wedding day? Wow- But still Laurie & Emily you both are so amazing :) You’re bond seems so beautiful!
I don’t know how you all managed to go on with the wedding after that storm. We got it here too! No warnings! Fortunately the cake survived. It was truly a work of art.
Beautiful cake….congrats to the happy couple! Wishing them, and as always you, the very best!💖
We also had carrot cake as one of the layers for my wedding cake! It's my husband's absolute favorite flavor, but he prefers it with regular buttercream frosting instead of cream cheese frosting. Very unexpected for a wedding cake, especially with no cream cheese frosting or filling, but a hit nonetheless!
I'm glad she picked that cake, it was so beautiful. It looked like a drawing. Wishing them a wonderful forever
This was by far the sweetest most heartwarming thing I've seen all day. Really needed a boost. Congrats to the beautiful couple.
Such a beautiful wedding! Congrats, Emilie! Missed Kevin in this video-hope he is doing well!
It's just not the same without his commentary right!!
He did a wonderful job of capturing it!
What a BREATHTAKING cake! I have never seen such an amazing cake. True artistry. Emilee! That must have been so distressing to go through a weather disaster like that but you have such a great attitude. You were a beautiful bride.
Loved the cake! Design was great and the skill of the flowers is inspirational. I had an idea for your next bakery challenge. What if you got 1 star and 5 star bakeries to recreate your own wedding cake?
I've been binge watching your channel for the last few weeks and I'm in with it all... I'm so happy here and I have been so inspired to start my channel soon🥰🥰🥰... I Love You Laurie
The torn edges look amazing. They bring that cake to a level of like just being the most incredible!
Absolutely LOVED this video. What an amazing gift for you friend and showcasing the process and timeline of planning and designing a wedding cake was really amazing to watch
Wow, these cakes were phenomenal!
I love her designs.
This inspires an appreciation for the beautiful flower skills.
The wedding cake is absolutely gorgeous. The different colors, textures and the height of the cake work so well together. The flowers are so realistic looking they give the cake that extra touch. I really need to thank you for sharing your struggles with depression and anxiety and providing me with a chance at real help. Since my husband passed away I've been lost and my mental health has been taking toll on me. Betterhelp sounds perfect for me. Thank you for sharing and keep on caking 💜
Please check your local hospice. They could provide grief counselling and support.
Thank you. That helps.
Oh no so sorry to hear about your friend’s wedding day, thankfully everyone was okay during that storm.
The cake is absolutely stunning, she did such an incredible job.
Congratulations to your friend, May God continue bless this union.
What a sweetheart and what a great friend you are! ❤️ Alexandria and her team are INCREDIBLE!!!
Congratulations Emily, Luke and Olive 🥳 the wedding cake is stunning 🤩 the most beautiful one i ever seen! Best video of the year 💖
I've been watching your video's now for about a year....you have a great personality , you are funny and verrrrry real....you call it as you see it.....so in today's video , when you said you struggle with depression and anxiety , I was very surprised.....kudos to you for letting everyone know what you're dealing with and how you are dealing with it.....makes me love your video's even more , because it makes you so much more real and not a phony....you go girl ,keep up the good work
Loved, loved this video. Gorgeous cake! Gorgeous bride and a special memory filled day. The cake artist who baked and made the cake is beyond talented. Thanks for sharing! Love your videos.
I had already started watching fine spun cakes videos on making sugar gum paste flowers. It takes so much work and skill to make one flower!
I love this concept! It’s so sweet!
Great video!!! So glad you could give her this special gift. The cake maker is so talented. Never knew all that went into wedding cake making such as days, a week, or even putting final decorations at the venue instead of before. Really cool and fascinating
You are kind and amazing person💜🤍So happy to see the talented bakers together and hatsoff to everyone who worked to make this beautiful cake♥️It’s gorgeous ♥️♥️Cheers to the wedding🤍
That wedding cake is so beautiful! I can’t get over it! And the colors are just perfect 😍 Also the flowers look so stunning and hyper realistic.
I'm watching her assemble now... those sugar flowers are just... awe-inspiring!
Cake was beautiful! Those flowers were amazing! It was fun when you showed us the sketches…and the one that was picked was my favorite one too!💜
I loved this!! So cool watching you go big with your ideas and then narrow them down and then see the final cake. And that cake was absolutely stunning!!!!
The cake turned out Beautifully. All the detail and care and artistry. Wow. And your friend seems as lovely as you.
This was so Good! Congratulations on your friends' wedding! I LOVE Alexandria from Fine Spun Cakes, she's amazing! So are you!
Woahh! This was awesome Laurie! Amazing work! it looked beautiful.
Stunning! What an incredible cake. I loved seeing the consultantation and the baker going through prep steps.
Beautiful! This was so sweet of you. Congratulations to your friend ♡
I love you Laurie! You have so much talent!
This was an amazing video, I even watched the ad all the way through bc this was all so beautifully done. What a crazy adventure, I am so glad I got to watch this
The cake was gorgeous!!!! Loooove the flowers and the ripped edge look just makes me happy. Also the vanilla with lemon curd? Solid choice. My best friend had that and then a chocolate with raspberry at their wedding. Super tasty.
Eeek! One of my favorites so far! I follow both of yall so it was so amazing to see it in one video and the behind the scenes with pricing 🤩👏 Absolutely beautiful
Such a beautiful cake, a stunning couple, and a wonderful friend!
Stunning everything! Beautiful bride and matron of honor! Awesome cake and they talented baker/designer is outstanding!
I loveeeee this video I’m happy you all shared this part of your life this cake looked amazing!
That had to be the most stunning wedding cake I've ever seen! The flowers look perfect and so real!
That is such a beautiful gesture for your friend 💖 congratulations on their wedding
I wouldn't have thought it possible, but I have to admit that cake was actually worth 3000 dollars!
That was a fantastic piece of art, and the artist spent a lot of time and effort just to reach the state of being able to offer to make the cake, and then spent many more hours and energy on the basics of creating the different items that combined into a cake. On top of that, she brought the cake personally and took her time to assemble it where it would be viewed, and the result was definitely visual perfection.
Wish I could have tasted, it sure looks like nothing is s accidental or just assembly line about any detail of each layer of cake, so it must have been as good on the inside as on the outside!
I love your vid and your decoration tips💕
Wow gorgeous cake!!!! And so very thoughtful of you Lori🤗
BEAUTIFUL cake and what a graceful bride ! Good wishes to them!
What an amazing cake artist! Reminds me of a local cake artist friend Jehonna. She is so amazingly talented, makes the most delicate flowers and aesthetic cakes 😍
Beautiful! Congratulations! Thank you so much for sharing the love with us! 💖
Wow beautiful cake! Glad Emilie has a friend like you laurie such a beautiful thing you did for her special day!
Thank God you are all safe and the wedding happened. What a beautiful day and a stunning couple. What a dear friend you are for such a special gift. Not just the cake, but the awesome memories of planning it.
Oh my gosh! The cake looks SO good, you and you friend Emilie REALLY have a good eye, (and tastebuds) when it comes to cakes! AMAZING JOB and also CONGRATULATIONS!!
*Hey friend I got my relationship fixed back with the help of a man who brought my partner back in 48 hours after many years of seperation. This is how to say thank you to him by telling other people that needs help like me.

Those roses looked so real to me. That cake is absolutely gorgeous! Such an amazing job done on it.
Loved this video. So sweet to see the whole story behind this spectacular cake and wedding.
What a kind thing for you to do. Bless you heart.
omg. this is the most beautiful cake ive ever seen!
Thank you for sharing with us about your anxiety and depression. You are inspiring and thoughtful
Thank for this lovely post. I loved the process and the cool outcome tornado and all.
The cake you ladies picked was stunning! It was my favorite of the choices as well.
I'm only 6.5 minutes into the video and am loving the choices of cake, filling and frosting for each layer. Sounds delicious 😋
The 3 initial designs so far are amazing. Can't wait to see the final product 💕
Amazing!! Really spectacular! Shout out to Alexandria
Absolutely beautiful! Great pick of bakery. She did a phenomenal job! Congrats Emily 🤗
Love the cake! It's stunning!! I remember when the tornado hit that totally sucks that it happened on her wedding day. But am glad it all worked out and she had a beautiful wedding day anyway. 😊
You are truly an amazing friend, but I knew that the second I firrt came across your videos (hence why I am going backwards from moe recent videos and binging!) I wish nothing but blessings for your life, and I know this year was a tough one, but you are strong and resilient- and don't ever forget it! 💓💗♥️
