As a guest you still get a slice of cake, it just comes from a much cheaper sheet cake.
I guess this could be your something borrowed? Lol. Has anyone ever heard of this or ever been to a reception with a rented wedding cake? Would you ever have a fake cake? I think I am far too traditional. I mean the cakes look real, but I don’t know it just seems strange to me.

I have heard of this and quite honestly I think it’s a great option for people who don’t want to shell out 1200 bucks for cake that may not even be completely eaten. And as a guest, you’re not paying for it so…what’s the problem? As long as the sheet cake has the same decorations on it and it tastes good, comes from the same baker….who’s going to know? Also, the couple wont have to worry about damage to the cake in transport. I saw one cake that was almost destroyed because it fell over but the cake maker came with the cake and was able to fix it before the bride and groom came in the reception.
Personally, I’ve always liked the mini-cakes or the cupcakes. I’m not going to have 200 million people at my wedding, most likely less than 50 so I would never entertain the thought of a tiered cake anyway.
