Art Nouveau Wedding Cakes

Art Nouveau emerged in the early twentieth century (late 1890) and has been a trend during more than a decade, during which, however, managed to impose their basic characteristics in all aspects of art and design. The concept was to introduced by a German-born merchant, Samuel Bing, who opened an art gallery in Paris, a new style of applied art which later gave its name and the exhibition itself: L’Art Nouveau – New Art.




If you have a passion for this art you can choose to have your wedding cake with an art nouveau design.
Conception on the line shape is asymmetric which ends with a whip like motion, giving it a strong point and is the main decorative feature of style. Decorations in the Art Nouveau style show the ability to highlight form and structure at the same time, to merge both the purpose and trimming it into an organic entity. The ensemble shows unity and synthesis. Although Picasso consider these creations some “wild and crazy curves”, he is one who recognizes that Art Nouveau was a strong current and marked an era: “Even when you are against a movement, yet you are still part of it,” said the great painter.

In architecture and the interior decoration, Art Nouveau artists were carefully avoided the excess eclectic of the Victorian era and the ornamental properly diffuse. Art Nouveau designers selected and have upgraded some of the more abstract elements of Rococo, such as textures of “flame” or “shell” instead of using them consistently instead of the Victorian ornamentation of historic or realistic-naturalistic. Accordingly, Art Nouveau has consistently promoted the use of highly stylized nature of the existing grounds, extending the “natural” at all inspired by the life of the sea grass and flower buds to form invertebrates, insects, in particular, the curves that are found in cats and birds of prey. All this elements can be successfully included in your wedding cake design by a professional confectioner if your desire is to have an art nouveau wedding cake.

Art Nouveau is easily recognizable because of its curved lines, wavy, “flowing” naturally, full of syncopated rhythms, like a musical leitmotif. Frequent use of open curved lines such as parabola or hyperbola are such important elements of the “panoply” Art Nouveau, are those which give dynamism and pace of these artifacts and buildings. Also, all conventional forms previously used in other styles are being redesigned in the Art Nouveau lively, seeming to grow and develop in all shapes reminiscent of plants that are about to blossom or flourish.

Nowadays it is not uncommon for religious ceremony to be officiated in a different location than the church, so if you opted for a beach wedding would be nice and most exciting part of the wedding to be increasingly dominated by the sea. Talk of time with the priest who will officiate the ceremony on this possibility. Maybe there is the need that the priest to include more time in the day program, since it will have to leave the church for several hours. In terms of timing, it seems that the most spectacular time of the day is sunset.
Because now, most beaches are rented / purchased / managed by a company, it would be good for you are interested in this. More than likely it will require some approvals and will have to pay a fee. Fitting the place where the ceremony will take place (chairs, arch, carpet / floor, etc.) will be made on your wedding day, so take care to synchronize very well with those who will do so.
