Dominique and
Anna Hoyt met while attending the University of North Carolina Greensboro
(UNCG) about four years ago. They were both pursuing degrees in Public Health
Education and working at the UNCG Recreation Center. Dominique asked Anna to go to Coffeeology, a local café, and
the two have been together ever since!
One rainy
Saturday in September 2012 the couple planned a hiking trip to Pilot Mountain,
NC along with their two beloved dogs, Sydney and Sophie. With Dominique leading the way, they
hiked towards a nook at the top of the path. Anna was completely surprised when
Dominique suddenly got down on one knee to propose! After their hike, the
couple celebrated with dinner at Southern Lights Bistro in Greensboro. 
The couple
married on June 15th, 2013 at Travis Pointe Waterfront Weddings and Events on Lake Norman. Their theme was a simple,
elegant, and romantic lakeside wedding. They wanted to create a relaxing
atmosphere where their guests could enjoy a sense of escape in the beautiful
day and happy celebration. A theme which transferred beautifully to their three-tier Strawberry Buttercream Cake! A hand whipped buttercream frosting, and fresh
roses added the perfect final touch.
There were so many lovely aspects that tied the day
together. From old mason jars filled with hydrangeas, sweet nautical signs, all
the way to the natural aspects of the venue that were incorporated into the
day. To add an extra special touch, the couple brewed homemade beer for their
reception. Sydney and Sophie were even part of the celebration!
Dominique and Anna chose Maxie B’s for their wedding cake
after years of enjoying birthday celebrations and date nights in our shop. Anna
has always loved stopping by to say hello and try new flavors. Fresh Strawberry
Buttercream is her favorite, so there was no doubt about choosing it for their
special day!
