Now that wedding season is just about half over, I thought it would be fun to help with the stress of things (has anyone had a good night sleep since April?) to tell of stories of cake drop offs, funny brides, interesting decorations, etc!!

The funniest ones I have had: We were delivering the cake, and the bride was running around the hall that had a kitchen, in her jeans and t shirt, with her hair up, complete veil and everything, putting together bowls of chips and ice buckets and such.

A bride was dressed as an elf three hours before her wedding. (we didnt ask but she looked cute!)

We drove up to the hotel and the bride was sitting on one of the benches in front of the hotel, beer in hand..just enjoying herself!

A bride and groom who were both scientists put out beakers from the chem lab of M&Ms at the tables. It was really cool looking!

A couple who's first names both began with L put "L2" (L squared) on all thier napkins and such instead of monogram.

I recently had a bride who was marrying a mathematics professor, and their cake was covered with infinity symbols and about 10 different mathematical symbols repeated, piped randomly all over the sides, white on white. When you stepped back, it just looked like a random pattern.

This spring I had a bride who wanted edible image b&w photos of herself and the groom all around the sides of the cake tiers. When she submitted the original photos to me, I could see in the background of one that they were at a PORN convention!

I think I may have mentioned this before, but a few weeks back, a groom came rushing in one Saturday morning, sweating like mad, to pick up his wedding cake. We had an engaged couple in the lobby, picking out their cake at the moment, and he turned to them and said, "My wedding is in 2 hours, and I still have to pick up the flowers and get dressed. My fiance spent $10,000 on this wedding, and she cheaped out on the wedding cake delivery charge. TRUST ME, IT'S WORTH THE $50. HAVE THEM DELIVER THE CAKE!"

Yeah, the couple in the lobby DID decide to have their cake delivered. icon_lol.gif

I do love it when I have a particularly fussy couple in the lobby, and a return customer happens to walk in and start raving about how fabulous we are. Sometimes the timing is so perfect, I think it must be an angel in disguise. icon_rolleyes.gif
