The Dessert TableAn avid cook, crafter, and baker, Blake envisioned an abundant dessert table overflowing with their favorite treats.

Espresso BeansGold foil cupcake liners held coffee-and-cream espresso beans from Nuts.com.
Mini TartsGuests enjoyed blueberry cheesecake tartlets by Caviar & Bananas in Charleston.
Lemon TartsAnother dessert table option was tiny lemon tartlets with meringue toppings by Caviar & Bananas in Charleston.
Fruit JelliesVarious pates de fruits from La Maison du Chocolat tempted guests.
Little CakesMini strawberry shortcakes by Caviar & Bananas in Charleston.
