Wedding Planning Wednesday: Let’s Get Naked

Made you look, didn’t I? That’s good, because I actually need your help. We’re not talking about actually getting naked, but naked cakes!

I happen to love them, but I’m worried they are too trendy. I don’t want to look back on my wedding in 30 years and wonder, “what the heck was I thinking with this cake?” However, I love the simplicity and elegance that it brings to a wedding.

With that being said, I also love frosting… At birthday parties, I look for the piece of cake with the big rose. Of course, buttercream just happens to be my favorite, which is the most popular in wedding cakes. Convenient, huh??

Oh don’t worry, the schizophrenia continues. I ALSO love cakes with a simple structure but well made. Yep, you guessed it, fondant. While it doesn’t taste as good, it obviously looks amazing.

We have cake tastings on Saturday, and I feel that I need to make up my mind before then about the direction I want to take. That’s where YOU come in. I need help deciding. Please vote for your favorite cake style 1, 2 or 3. As a thank-you, have a coffee on me!

Thanks for your vote! Enjoy your Starbucks. Check our last week’s Wedding Planning Wednesday on guest list advice.

P.S. I’m headed to watch my brother graduate from Basic Training this week! I’m driving 10 hours both ways so posts might be a little light this week. Follow along on Snapchat: @helenguyyay.
