Weddings, Butterflies & the Sweetest Dreams

‘Weddings, Butterflies & the Sweetest Dreams’ is a companion
volume to Bonnae Gokson’s award-winning first book ‘Butterflies and All Things Sweet’. It is neither a cookbook nor a wedding planner but, rather, a celebration of love, weddings and wedding cakes in an inspirational journey around the globe.

Against a backdrop of sublime images we sourced internationally and art directed with our team in Sydney, coupled with a judicious sprinkling of copy and a scattering of exceptional weddings we highlight Bonnae’s interests, influences and extraordinary cakes.

We were mindful that this should be a book not only for those planning a wedding, but also to anyone interested in design in a broader sense. The pages traverse the arts, architecture, culture, interiors, fashion and of course food.

‘Weddings, Butterflies & the Sweetest Dreams’ was launched in NewYork with an event hosted by Vera Wang at her flagship bridal boutique on Madison Avenue. The following year the book was Silver Winner Publication category: Sydney Design Awards.

  • “The project was not an easy undertaking as we were working in three different cities, Hong Kong, Sydney and San Francisco but I am so proud of the result. This book has turned out to be so unique and sophisticated which reflects both Ms B's CAKERY and SEVVA. Hats off to This Is Ikon again!!”
