You cant have a New York City themed wedding without a yellow cab in there somewhere, so how about taxi cab cookies!? YUM. This delicious example is from My Kitchen Addiction.
A car shaped cookie cutter will make the job a lot easier, you can even buy taxi shaped ones, CoperGifts.com has a great selection of NYC themed cutters. Then some black and yellow icing and a steady hand.
If thats a bit out of your league, black and white cookies are a New York favourite - and a lot less fiddly. Check out the recipe here.
How awesome would it be to make your very own city lights skyline? This very clever idea is from Sweet Paul. All you need is some city photos printed out onto card paper or try vellum. Just wrap them around your votive candle holders and cut some windows out to let the light shine through. Cute!
Something sweet to kick things off. Here are a few of our favourite cake finds inspired by the city that never sleeps.
