The Wedding Cake
Author: Mary Jane Holmes
The wedding cake is the first thing your guests notice when they
walk into the Reception hall. The cake sets the tone of the
wedding as formal or informal. In ancient times weddings took
place after the harvest and cakes were considered a symbol of
good luck. Wedding cakes gave good luck to the newlyweds, and
passing out pieces of cake was a way of sharing that luck with
friends and neighbors.
The traditional wedding cake of three or more round stacked
layers, is what comes to mind when most people think ¡°wedding
cake¡± However, your wedding cake can be any shape or style you
wish. I have seen all kinds of cakes used for wedding cakes,
from multi-tiered heart shaped cakes with several smaller hearts
on pedestals attached to the main tower by cascading ribbons,
and plastic bridges. It was really beautiful. I also know a
couple who met at a hockey game. Their wedding cake was a sheet
cake decorated to look like a hockey arena. Obviously it was a
very informal wedding, and a second marriage for both. A sheet
cake can be decorated with elegance, for an informal wedding. It
is your wedding, you can have any kind of cake you want.
Most brides show up for the first meeting with a cake
designer/decorator, with an image in her head of the perfect
wedding cake, that she may have dreamed about since childhood.
The designer will do everything in her power to bring that image
into reality. Go to the meeting the approximate number of
guests, your color scheme, a sketch however primitive of what
you want your cake to look like and possibly a picture from a
magazine that is close to what you want the cake to look like.
The designer will also want to know what flavor you want the
cake and icing to be. They may even have samples for you to
taste.
If you want a formal wedding but still want to add a touch of
whimsy have fun with the grooms cake. The wedding cake can be as
elegant as you want, but have the groom¡¯s cake reflect
something about the groom, his hobbies, job etc. Does he like
Nascar have a race car, the options are endless. If another
special family occasion is the same day as your wedding, try to
recognize it some way. A friend of mine got married on her
father-in-law¡¯s birthday, so she had the top layer of her
wedding cake decorated as a birthday cake for him. He was so
delighted. All of these kinds of things need to be discussed
with the cake designer, well in advance of the big day. You can
get wedding cakes at most bakeries, but I¡¯d suggest looking for
one whose specialty is wedding cakes. You don¡¯t have to limit
yourself to the traditional cake. I knew a bride whose wedding
cake consisyed of hundreds of filled cupcakes, artfully arranged
to resemble the traditional wedding cake, each of the five
layers had a different type of filling. It was amazing!

Want to save money for your wedding? Here are some ideas for a
cheap wedding.
If you hire an event coordinator for your wedding planning and
execution, you will save time and thus money by selecting from
his/her recommendations of experienced vendors and ways to save.
Most specialize in cutting costs.
Learn how to do your make-up well in advance of the event date
and complete your own prior to putting on your gown.
If you select "in-season" flowers for your bouquets and décor,
you can save a third of the costs.
Let the bridesmaids carry one long-stemmed flower keyed into
your wedding bouquet.
If you use mirror rounds under the flowers, you'll expand their
appearance on tables. Expand the flowers for your table décor
with 2/3 greenery to 1/3 flowers.
Purchase a cheap or less expensive plain white dress and buy the
