Um..how about no. That was disrespectful to EVERYONE who attended. And an amazing sign of "unfailing love" to the bride. I know I'm going to be a bridezilla, b/c I would have told homeboy to step after that, I couldn't marry his behind. Your cousin's super nice! (But she's related to you so she must be!)

I could totally see J doing that! I don't think I'd be nice about it but I wouldn't flip either. Knowing me, I'd be running late anyway and would welcome someone else to blame for the ceremony starting late

Yeah she's one of the few brides I know who were actually on time and waiting for everyone else. I have never been in or to a wedding (besides hers) where the bride was not running late.

Wow really? LOL. Yes she was upset (because guests had been waiting), but obviously didn't think it was worth a blowout and an argument because when you think about it, your wedding (while a wonderful and important day for 2 people), is just one day in the rest of your lives. And who wants to say that they had a blowup on their hubby on their wedding day because he was 30 minutes late and it ruined the rest of the evening?

I think that one might have been a divorce cake...which makes me Are there women having divorce parties? And it looks like it could have been a beautiful wedding cake, but then it was made into a awful, gruesome divorce cake, so that's why I posted it.

I need to figure out what I want my cake to look like... need to meet with the baker in a few weeks. We're less than 8 weeks to go until the wedding. ARGH! Invites went out today. Shower is in less than 2 weeks. Work is getting busy. Getting in panic mode!!!

OMG! Seriously? Divorce parties? Are there invitations for these events? I don't agree with a three-tiered cake to celebrate your divorce. Granted, I'm single, so what do I know? But as someone who is about to have a divorced friend....if she were to have a party, I'm thinking a shoe shaped cake would be more appropriate. It would also be much more attractive.

I remembered seeing a cake like that in a story about Shanna Moaklar's divorce party when she and Travis Barker broke up. I actually found the pic:

That Shana Moakler cake is disgusting.

For those interested, that "Amazing Wedding Cakes" show premieres next Sunday on WE (after Bridezilla).

Arg, so my fiance and I have had some wedding cake drama! Our bakery, who has baked every cake I've ever had, has been forced to close due to the economy/horrific fire last year. So, the scramble was on to find a new baker (t-minus 2.5 months till WDay). My aunt and mom, being the networking ladies that they are, found a baker that used to work at a bakery they both went to when they were little. Apparently he's gone into a sort of "cottage" business of his own with one of the other bakers, and they do wedding cakes and cookies in Pittsburgh. He said he could replicate any cake we threw at him, so the search was on, because I decided to change the original cake idea. So, this is what I've found, and he's agreed to do this for us (in buttercream, not fondant (blech!))

From the knot
