Good morning everyone!!! Are you ready for the next episode of the Glamnuptials? Its cake time people it’s cake time :)

Our wedding cake was so beautiful! It was literally a show stopper, or should I say a conversation starter. All our guests commented on how unique and glamorous it was, and it made me extremely happy to know that people actually paid attention. We wanted something unique, and thanks to all the weddingbee  readers, we finally had the perfect balance of brown, ivory and design.

For our cake topper, we used a vintage crystal glass that my step-mother had, and used the remaining arylic crystals that we used for our escort cards. (more to come on that) I put a tealight candle in the glass so that way at night our cake would have its own mini chandelier.

We had a chocolate Ferrero Rocher crisp dessert included with our meal, so we served the cake later on with the sweets table. Since I figured not everyone would eat cake at night, I decided to make cake flags to go with our oh-so yummy dessert.

Sorry for the blurry picture, this is the only proof with our cake flags.

For the portions, we decided to make a cake for only 70 people (though we had over 150 guests), and I have to say it was still too much because we had tonnes left over. We had more than half the cake untouched… but we even forgot the leftover cake at the hotel. Oh well… just another excuse to get a cake made for our 1 year anniversary :)

    I’m getting married in 4 weeks and haven’t decided on a cake yet! We are on a strict budget so a friend of the family (who happens to be a baker) is making it but I have to design it. This cake is EXQUISITE and the first one I’ve seen that really stopped me in my tracks.

  8. Lauren says:

    WOW!!! Love, Love, Love this cake and the topper!! Hello YUMMY!

  9. I love that cake – I’ve been watching Amazing Wedding Cakes on WE TV and think this one ranks up there with the faux chandelier.

  10. That is a beautiful cake, we had something very similar, just slightly smaller.
    We also ended up getting Personalized candy bar wrappers with hersheys chocolate inside for guest favors

  11. The detail in the cake is amazing! Did you cry when you had to cut into it?

  12. Wedding Cake must be as big as every guest have a chance to taste it.
