Mixed feelings about wedding cake
All our wedding guests loved the cake, thought it was delicious and a lovely, novel design. We went with the cake that looks like stacked presents. My problem is that when we sat with the person to make decisions about the cake, we arranged that each tier would have a different design and color. And it was up to me to hunt down ribbon with colors they suggested would match each tier. I spent hours and searched every store I could think of that sold ribbon, to find ribbon close to what I thought would be close to what they suggested. The cake we got had nice designs on each tier, but only alternated between white and yellow. They didn't add the two other colors we had talked about. And they did not utilize the ribbon the way they said they would. Rather than have each color on matching tier, the ribbons were mishmashed throughout. All in all, it looked fine. And like I said, my guests were impressed. But I felt like if they were going to do something different, for whatever reason, I would have liked advance notice or a note the day of to explain. If I would have known the cake itself was not going to have all the color accents they promised or if they were having problems with the ribbon, I would have bought ribbon accordingly and I would not have spent so much time hunting all over town for specific colors.
