Phyllis Court, a private members’ club in Henley-on-Thames, provided a picture perfect venue for a wedding reception on a sunny Saturday in May. Situated by the River Thames with beautiful grounds and light and airy reception rooms, it is certainly an elegant choice for a Summer wedding.

The couple opted for an equally elegant and classic cake design. The inspiration for which came from the wedding flowers replicated in a cascade of purple lisianthus and freesia sugar flowers.
From top to bottom they had the following flavours to feed their 230 guests:
“Luscious Lemon”
Zesty lemon sponge soaked with Limoncello syrup and layered with lemon curd and a light lemon buttercream

“Zesty Carrot Cake”
A moist carrot cake enriched with orange zest and juicy rum soaked sultanas, and layered with orange buttercream

“Red Velvet”
A light and fluffy red vanilla bean sponge with a hint of cocoa, layered with vanilla bean buttercream

“Classic Victoria”
Vanilla bean sponge soaked with vanilla bean syrup and layered with Morello cherry preserve and vanilla bean buttercream

Many congratulations to the happy couple, Kelly and Patrick!
