I'm not super traditional, as in a cake has to be white, but damn at least be real! If you can't afford fancy schmancy have someone's granny make you a nice tasty cake! The granny ones usually taste better than any store one anyway.

This type of keeping up with the Joneses just looks ridiculous.

That's why God invented Groom's cakes - so you can have your beautiful wedding cake AND a funkier one, too.

Wow you got a really great deal and it looks yummy... My cake was all real and it was good. I didn't think that it would get all eaten but it did because it was that good. I spent $600+ on my wedding cake... thank goodness my MIL paid for the grooms cake...

...at my cousin sweet 16 though they did have this huge FAKE cake on display on one of the tables... and yes later they served sheet cake.

I have heard of the fake cakes and although it is a good idea, I think you should go ahead and get the real deal. You definitely do not have to go with an expensive cake. The cakes at Wal-Mart and Publix (if you have one) are tasty, professional, and affordable.

you all are really making me want to go home and bake a cake. or at least cupcakes.

speaking of which, do y'all think the cupcake-cake thing is cute or tacky? I like the idea but i don't really see myself pulling it off properly. I'd save that for a more casual event.

I think it depends, if it's a casual reception or if they're done very well... I think it can work. Although I still think you should have a small cake, just surrounded by the cupcakes. I'm just all traditional like that though.

Now, the twinkie/hostess cupcake cakes are a no-no.
