Wedding Cake

On November 22nd....(I know I'm way behind on my blogs) Myself, Mom Tesch, Jenn, Grace, Ezra and Audrey traveled to the boondocks of Custer, WA to meet our cake lady Mechaelle. I looked everywhere to find affordable cakes. I got price quotes anywhere from $300 to $500 for the cake that we wanted. Even grocery stores wanted $400 for very simple cakes. Jenn used Mechaelle at her wedding and said she was very reasonable and has yummy cakes. She was soooooo right. She had a ton of cake photos for us to look at, different flavor options, different ideas. And on top of that she was really nice and so much fun to talk to. It was so much fun hanging out with my new family and spending time with the kiddos. Here's what Brad and I decided on with the help of our families (we all taste tested the samples she made):
Brides Cake:
White Chiffon Cake with Raspberry buttercream filling and White Butter cream frosting. The cake will be three tiers with ivory flowers in between the tiers. Each tier will have ivory ribbon on the bottom of each layer and the icing will have loose swirls on each layer piped in with icing.....its the cake of my dreams and more and for only $180.00!

Grooms Cake:
Vanilla and chocolate marbel cake with carmel butter cream filling and butter cream frosting. The cake will be a sports fan cake with the Seahawks and Mariners combined. Its going to be a really fun cake, it was all Brad's idea....its so perfect for him. I can't wait to see it! His cake will cost $100.00.
