We do love a fabulous wedding cake here at HELLO!, and Jessica Wright and William Lee-Kemp wowed us with the most stunning five-tiered creation at their wedding on 9 September.
The happy couple wed on the Spanish island of Majorca with their marriage ceremony at the Basílica de Sant Francesc, in the heart of the old town in Palma.
The wedding party were then transported to a castle for the reception, the Castillode Bendinat in Calvià, built in the 19th century.

A grand banquet was put on for the 130 guests, with Jessica telling HELLO!: "I had a vision for the whole day that I wanted it to be Hollywood glamour combined with this amazing regal place, with a theme of black, white and gold. I decided on everything from feathers in the table floral centrepieces to the poems on the back of menus."
The wedding cake was absolutely breathtaking: a five-layered confection decorated with marbled icing, golden embellishment and cascading ivory roses from top to bottom.

The cake was presented on an elegant glass stand, which beautifully complemented the soft hues of the show-stopping cake.
The banquet menu was a feast to behold, featuring Galician beef fillet with charred spring onions, sea bream with oven-dried tomatoes, and homemade ravioli with summer truffles.
For dessert there was a reminder of home with sweet treats named after their dogs: papillon/chihuahua mix Cooper’s Snicker surprise and miniature Yorkshire terrier Bella’s mango and passionfruit cheesecake – with edible pictures of each of them.
