$450 for a freakin' cake?!?! by miker2 (2.00 / 0) #1 Thu Jan 03, 2008 at 03:57:55 PM EST

Makes me so happy my chick is very, very low-maintenance and wants a very simple, very inexpensive wedding.

$450 for enough cake to feed 175 people? by webwench (2.00 / 0) #2 Thu Jan 03, 2008 at 04:06:26 PM EST

That's not bad, actually.

It does help explain why those of us who do this stuff more than once like to elope for subsequent weddings, though.

From the lady in town who made cakes for fun. Best wedding cake I ever had.

for my first wedding by StackyMcRacky (2.00 / 0) #5 Thu Jan 03, 2008 at 06:42:09 PM EST

we paid about that, and the cake showed up totally f'd up. the first layer was totally destroyed, and the cake itself looked like a 3rd-grader did it. oh! and the fillings were wrong and parts of the cake were frozen! we learned she had baked it 5 days in advance and frozen it because at the last minute she had decided to go on vacation the weekend of my wedding but had already signed a contract with me a year in advance.

not cool, yo.

but the only way to do that was to go to court. at the time, i didn't really feel up to it.
my wedding planner got the baker black-listed, so that was cool.
