These are some of the pictures I brought to show Jennyfer, I really am just a simple girl in need of a simple cake.
This is probably my favorite, simple and classic, and with my flower colors of course
I do like the addition of the navy ribbon and I would want butter cream frosting instead of fondant, that way it won't look so "hat like", and with my flowers as toppers.
I kinda like the navy dots..but this cake may be too formal for our wedding. What do you all think about navy ribbon and navy dots...too much??
We have not made our decision yet as far as taste and or style but I think we have at least decided on the red velvet with cream cheese frosting for one of our layers (can you believe I had never even tried red velvet until I moved to Florida 6 years ago?? Must be a southern thing??) We both agreed that we liked two other white/lighter cakes as neither Groomzilla nor I are huge chocolate fans but we know that others are.
So what is the protocol, do we select what we like or do we accommodate our guests by throwing in a chocolate layer as well?
I'd love to hear from you. Email questions, comments, or photos to blogzillabride@gmail.com

Yikes, they all look so chic and yummy!!!
We are doing our tasting this weekend with our bakery. We have actually already tried some of their stuff and we are going with a Red Velvet as well! It is only the best cake ever! Yum! We have already decided that we will do one tier in a chocolate of some sort and one tier in a white or vanilla of some sort and the top tier will be Red Velvet so that we can take it home and eat it, haha! I say do what you want. If you want to accommodate your guests then I say go for it, but if you really just want to accommodate yourselves, then I say go for that too. It is your wedding and all that matters is that you are happy with it!
I like them all! We are having a 4 tier cake and each layer is a different flavor so there is something for everyone. I've never had red velvet before, I've been wanting to try it.. I just never do, lol.
All those cakes are beautiful and I don't think the third is too formal.
I say get what you like. Does having a chocolate layer even guarantee the chocolates lovers get piece? All the weddings that I've been to you just get what you're served.
yummy! they're all so pretty too!
Pick what you like! Trust me, I'm sure your guests will all find at least one flavor they like, and by choosing what you like, you can have a small piece of each layer or even take them home afterward if you can't eat during the wedding. Also, to give people a choice, rather than just give them whatever's served, one option is to have the cake plates served on a table so they can all take the flavor they want. I love all the designs, but love the classic, clean look of the first cake!
Get what you like...pretty much everyone will like vanilla and if you have the red velvet option as a layer too then that's your "different" option in case someone doesn't like vanilla. Your picture options are great! I'm sure you two will decide exactly what you want once you think about it a bit more. I think you could do the dots and ribbon if the dots were as tiny as they are in your picture...cause they're really subtle there. good luck!
You have good taste in cake! I love all your options! :)
I do love them all but somehow the navy blue polka dots intrique me. You don't see cakes like that very often, do you?
lovely cakes :) I definitely enjoyed our cake tasting :)
The Perfect Palette
all 3 options are pretty! red velvet is THE BEST- your guests will be smiling! :)
I LOVE the one with the navy ribbon!!
I like all of them. Have you picked a guest book yet? They have really cute personalized ones at PaperCoterie.com, I am hosting a giveaway for them right now, $40 plus free shipping and there's 10 winners! You should enter! sometimesuwin.blogspot.com
those cakes look so delicious! our tasting was at 10AM when we had it... it was a perfect way to start off the morning!
i think the flavors should be a reflection of what the two of you like!
I agree with Whiney ......but they all look good.
