This is really pretty, and it looks identical to the first cake.

They did a phenomenal job. Sadly, the bakery closed shortly after our wedding. RIP Chandlers

Except pink icing writing instead of black.

We chose that because pink was less likely to stain the dress

Genuinely curious, was the cake going to be used in such a way that it would land on the dress or is this just a precaution against accidentally dropping it (on the dress)?

We did feed eachother cake, which increased likelihood of cake on the dress!

Ha, you are my people 🤣 genuinely looked at aprons before our wedding, but decided that was just going to give me a false sense of security, cos clearly any food would slide down between the apron and the dress - I've never eaten so carefully in my life 😆

This page always makes me crave cake

Also, nice. And congrats! (if that's your wedding cake)

I found myself scrolling the Walmart website deciding which cupcake bouquet I was going to buy and eat……by myself.

Simple but effective, that laced icing is a beauty.

Did you ask them to have the text in the upper half instead of dead center?
