How was your wedding?

[ISUKappa]

Another question, for those of you who had a reception: Did you eat at your reception?

What was the meal?

We did. We had a buffet dinner of smoked turkey, ham and beef; mashed potatoes and gravy; green bean casserole; tossed salad and rolls. I ate but couldn't eat too much because I was too excited with everything that had gone on all day and my dress was starting to get heavy and kind of uncomfortable. We cut our cake right after the meal, I didn't think it took too long to get cut and served. It was really good cake!!

which reminds me, I need to defrost our top layer this weekend!

My wedding cake sukkkeddd BIGTIME!!!

1) The hotel charged us for cutting the dayum sucky cake--it was only 2 tiers...

2) The cake I wanted comes from The Grove Bakery in Lemon Grove, California... But since I had my 2nd ceremony in Arizona, NO WAY was The Grove Bakery gonna guarentee their cake--and they make the BEST Butter Creamed Icing in the city--In my opinion...

3) So we had to go thru some non-descript bakery in Arizona--and the cake TOTALLY SUKKKEEDDD!!! And my husband is allergic to chocolate...

But, I guess the food at the hotel was OKEY... It wasn't all that... But, the good food takes careful planning... And the Yavipai Restaurant in Sedona at the Enchantment Resort was the best the next day...
