Let Them Eat Cake!

Pat and I met with a potential cake baker on Saturday. Her shop was cute and clean and she was nice. She's delivered to Martindale before and she's fairly close by (huge plus). I have been worried about how the wedding cake was going to get to the reception site. Apparently it's just driven there in a car. Very interesting. I wish I could have cake insurance or something like that.

So it turns out that the cake is actually something Pat feels very strongly about. He wants a big cake! This is a good thing, because I do too. It's easier to spend the amount of money that cakes cost when you're both in agreement about what your perfect cake is.

We'll probably set up a tasting with her in January. I can't wait to try all the combinations. We'll probably have each layer be a different flavor and let everyone choose which one they want. What's your favorite cake flavor?

So people do read this!

I've learned over the past few days that people do actually check in here and there! That's great news! Things are going great in wedding world. We're gathering tons of ideas and supplies. Our next project will be designing our invitations. I purchased a great machine called a Gocco which is essentially an at home screen printer! It can print in any color ink on any color paper. So we're going to try and do our invitations at home with this little guy. Wish us luck! I'm hopeful that they'll turn out great. I'm sure they'll be quite the labor of love!

We're getting ready for Christmas. This weekend we might put up the tree - if we ever get around to it. We probably won't be celebrating at our house at all and instead just go to each family. This is the first year we've had to split up time and it's a new adventure for me!

So keep checking in. There are so many things that I want to post, but I'm keeping some surprises. Rest assured we are working on a bunch of things that I hope you'll all love!
