With our epic fail into the wedding cake world, we started to look around at ideas for more traditional cakes. We found out pretty quickly that we both loved little fondant flowers on cakes.
While those are simple and beautiful there was one cake that we both just stopped and said, “yep that’s the one!”
Yes we fell in LOVE with Mrs. Emerald’s cake (among like a million other things in her wedding). Those little flowers streaming down the side are the perfect mix of simple and modern. *swoon*
So while we made the decision to have a two layer version of Mrs. Emerald’s cake made and use our Indy cake topper with it, there was still something missing. It just wasn’t completely “us” yet. We finally figured out what it was. Two furry little members of our family were missing from it; Wicket and Bravo. We HAD to add them to the cake. I sent photos of our boys to Clay Greys on Etsy and she created two little status of them.
I *heart* these so much! The coloring and markings are identical to Wicket and Bravo. Now our boys can play a part in our wedding day.
Did anyone else have a much trouble finalizing their cake as we did?
Aaaah! This is SO awesome. I love that your guys get to be part of the day too!
Mrs. Emerald’s cake is gorgeous! I can’t wait to see your version of it. And those cake toppers are precious!
Is your hotel providing the cake?? We are not having our DW at a hotel and Im scared we will have to use a crappy baker for ours and end up with a basic sheet cake heheh
@HoneyBear: Don’t worry the resorts actually have some great chefs. 
They did give us the option to bring in an outside cake but we have talked to other brides who said the cake was great so we didn’t bother.
If you are really worried contact the coordinators and ask what your options are for cakes. They usually have some examples that they can send you.
