I am getting married July 2, 2005 and I have a 3 tier cake with 2 smaller cakes in the front of it. (Its all part of the wedding cake). The cake designer would like to use flowers. But in order to use real flowers, I know that it will be very expensive. Is it alright if I use artificial flowers on a wedding cake? Please Help ASAP

[In reply to]
I would hope that your wedding cake designer could guide you with respect to your choice of decoration on the bake's designed wedding cake. The baker should be able to offer options, as well as pricing, for choices between real, edible fllowwers (which would need to be chosen seasonally), decorations made with butter cream or marzipan and possible options for using silk, artificial flowers as decorations. If you must use silk I would certainly try to make your selections based on the type of flower. Choose colors that are found in nature (i.e. you wouldn't use a purple rose, use pink, yellow, etc.).
Again, your baker should be able to guide you in the right direction. Top Wedding Questions Forum Moderator - "Write your sorrows in the sand, your blessings in stone".
