To add to the numerous origami flowers made for our wedding, my husband, mother-in-law, and I, folded 2 different sized flowers for our wedding cake! Again, we used regular printer paper in different colors. We did not want to use Japanese newspaper for the cake, in fear that the buttercream icing would leave oily marks on it. So, my husband - being creative - typed random words in Japanese characters on regular white paper and printed them out. Things like - sushi, unagi, oishii, etc!
Each flower had a skewer hot glued to it (about halfway up the middle of the flower). Then, we gave the flowers to the cake shop, and they were able to snip the skewers as they saw necessary.

On the top of the cake are hand-painted kokeshi dolls, made to look like us. We love them so much! - they were given to us by my matron of honor and her family! (painted by

Incredible! So much thought put into all of this :)
