Your cakes are amazing! Don't give up on weddings, to me they are some of the best cakes to do, and people deserve to see your talent! Good job on telling her off, I wouldn't have been as nice as you! icon_smile.gif

I think both of your cakes were wonderful! I hope to someday be half as good as you and all the other cake decorators on this site!
If that old lady relative is still as mouthy as she was the day of the wedding and still around causing trouble.....I'm sure the couple have already divorced! icon_evil.gif

You did great!!!! Sometimes people keep getting humilitated and mistreated, and dont even defend themselves!!! I can imagine that lady's face when you said you would take the cake with you!!! icon_smile.gif

Both of your cakes are drop dead gorgeous...that woman should be committed somewhere...don't you dare give them a cent back...there's no reason..if the bows aren't red ,I don't know what she'd call them
Maybe she can't see clearly...(can't read emails) You were absolutely right to tell her to back off...I can only wonder how the "groom" is dealing with his new family icon_wink.gif l:

Haha-I had no idea this thread was still going. Thanks to all for the nice comments. icon_biggrin.gif They never contacted me after the wedding. But getting some distance from it, I just know deep down that they were going after every single vendor so they could get refunds and discounts. I knew from the get go they would be hard to deal with, so next time I will just listen to my gut, no matter how much they are paying.

The wedding thing isn't because of this one woman, just due to brides in general. The whole princess/bridezilla thing drives me nuts. And birthdays are soooo much less trouble.

Yep....definately red to me. thumbs_up.gif

Wiki says 285 shades of red to the naked eye. icon_rolleyes.gif She should have been more specific.

I hate it how people like this don't think before they speak. They don't realise that what they say can affect the course of peoples lives. I know you said it isn't just this one lady, but she would have been the straw that broke the camels back. I hope you don't look back one day and think " I would be still doing that today but......."

Would your cakes be anything but beautiful? Na!!

Your cakes are beautiful! Wedding cakes are stressful anyway, having everyone watch you like a monkey in the zoo while you set up and put on the finishing touches, much less having someone scream at you and bring in others to help her remember anything nasty she may have forgotten to say. You did a great job handling the situation!!!
