Really good idea. I don't even think you have to do this if you are on a budget. I was at a pretty nice wedding a few years ago and I'm pretty sure they did this. The wedding was so big (about 200 people) they passed the cake around to everyone anyway. So if you did use a sheet cake no one would know because it all tastes the same and looks the same.
