He gets lost... then after an hour of delay, he basically flies into the venue—sudden braking, barely stops, and then... well, you can imagine what was left of the cake behind him😂 Honestly, some incredibly skilled, "ready-for-anything" wedding planner managed to fix the mess... I won't even go into detail, but they pulled off something straight out of a movie. There was cake everywhere in the van😬 😬 🤣

I guess I don't know if they shoved the cake in the luggage compartment or if they just bought her a whole new ticket
basically, it was a cake that smelled like diesel from the bus... hmm... yuck 😲

So, I was at this wedding expo the other day—can't even remember which booth it was, honestly—and this lady tells us when we ask about delivery that they’ve actually sent things via Greyhound 😲 😲 😲 all the way to San Diego, and everything arrived perfectly fine
I mean, I guess... maybe my nerves just wouldn't handle it on the actual wedding day? Like, no way. I think I’d be staring at the ceiling for weeks straight, just totally losing sleep worrying if that cake would show up in one piece!

Ashley Adams4 said:Aha....
Anyway, that’s actually a decent price for Vinny—but honestly, most decent bakeries are hitting those numbers now, so... I’m still torn between going with them or just heading over to Baskin-Robbins... can't make up my mind yet.😁

A fair price? 😕
Oh man... I don't know, it still feels like a huge amount of money to me for just one cake😕

😁

Ashley Adams4 said:Hmm, why is shipping so high... I mean, where are they even driving it from?
It’s honestly not worth it—my advice? Just find a decent local bakery nearby because this is basically just flushing money down the toilet. But hey, if you really want to... go ahead and pay 😉

It's not even about delivery $567 🤣 🤣
$567 It's a cake, and getting it delivered to my place in Chicago (which is pretty far from 😁 ) would cost like 200 bucks $133
The lady at the bakery didn't seem totally sure
And I wasn't even planning on asking Vinny to pick it up, I was just stopping by to get a rough idea of the price
I'm not even sure if we can even find those super "smooth" frosting cakes around here in Chicago, plus my godmother is visiting from New York City and she’s insisting on treating me to the whole cake herself

Could someone please tell me how much a wedding cake usually runs, or what you guys ended up paying?
I was asking around at Magnolia Bakery and they mentioned a wedding cake would be around $567 plus whatever delivery costs

$567 ??!?!!?!?!? 😲 😲 😲
I mean, that feels a little pricey to me, I guess... though I honestly have no clue what the going rate is for wedding cakes when you're catering to like 180-200 people....
