This is a local bakery in Manahawkin, NJ and the owners are Staten Island natives who have relocated to the Jersey shore. The cake was delish! My husband and I wanted to really support local business during our wedding planning. So, we went with this small bakery in a strip mall off Route 72. Sounds sketchy right? Well, it was the best decision we could have made! I want to try to remember what we got but I can't! People talked about the cake all weekend though! And, the owner sat down with me and worked with me on what I wanted in design. I would say they are more traditional which is what I wanted. I didn't care about a fancy abstract cake design. I cared more about the quality. And I got it! Great spot for any baked goods!
Rev. Caputo was an amazing part of our ceremony. She was easygoing, personal and heartfelt and sincere about marrying us that day. We met with her beforehand so she could get to know us and she also proposed the coolest idea to replace a candle ceremony since we were outdoors. We combined sand from the west coast and east coast beaches because my husband is a Cali guy and I am a Jersey girl. It made it that much more special. She let us write our own vows and she was supportive from minute one to minute end. She was available via email at any time and responded quickly to any questions or fears I had. She directed us with ease during the ceremony so we didn't feel anxious or nervous. It was the perfect outdoor ceremony with spirituality and creativity to satisfy our own tastes. Thank you Rev. Caputo!
