I've always loved strawberry shortcake...

Oh the wedding cake...a traditional piece of the traditional wedding. My opinion...I could have done without it because I know that if Jack and I cut the cake...somehow cake will end up in my nose!

What the heck is the point of getting your makeup and hair done, purchasing an expensive dress (that most only wear once), then having cake shoved in your face by your husband? This is not a good start to the marriage! Jack needs to understand that if he shoves this wedding cake in my face I will take my lady gloves off and throw down like Charlie Brown.

Now to the ladies that provoke the cake in the face by making the first move....what are you thinking...do you want to wake up tomorrow morning with a crazy break out because of that royal icing? It just does not make any sense to me.

On to the wedding cake (that will not be smooshed in my face)...our buddy Danielle will be making it for us. It will be a giant take on a strawberry shortcake...below are some photos we liked. Opinions please...

Taryn- I like the last cake. It is very earthy yet clean looking. Have you thought about maybe doing a cupcake thing instead of the traditional cake? Just food for thought!

i like the last one. the other two look a little too messy and I know you are going for an organic/earthy look but i think the last one is still organic but pulled together.

Ilike elements of each cake...I'm digging the powdered sugar on top...and I'm probably going to have Danielle make use of a lot of strawberries and some of my wild flowers. I'm planning on having cupcakes too...thanks to the help of Melissa :)
