Author: I have to make a wedding cake that is two toned horizontally. Any ideas on how to get a clean line that doesnt bleed?

Posted in 
Our original plan didn’t fall through and now my fiance and I are trying to find a cake vendor at the last minute for our upcoming wedding. The only thing is, we didn’t have to pay anything for our original idea and we hadn’t put much aside for it in our budget. Everyone said I should stay away from making my own wedding cake, but then I heard about cupcake wedding cakes.
Am I naive to think that I could probably easily pull this off? I would just need to make cupcakes, decorate ‘em and make a small slab cake for the top. What sort of things do I need to consider/plan on buying? Anyone recommend NOT doing this?
Where and what hotels in Miami have a great Beach to have a small wedding ceremony? I will be getting married at the end of June but I am so confused on hotels in Miami?
What are the requirements for NYC residents to get married in Miami?
Does anyone recommend a Hotel that does a beach weeding on their property?
What about wedding cakes in Miami: does anyone recommend a wedding cake designer (Bakery) in Miami??
Does anyone know how should i begin to arrange the beach wedding with a hotel? should I question the wedidng policy of the hotel? Or what should I do?
When I got married a few years ago, it was an at-home wedding.
It was in my aunt’s house and at Christmas time. I have always admired how she decorated her home.
After the wedding, there were several comments made about how much my wedding cost her and my other aunt.
My husband and I paid for the cake, flowers and rings. The only clothing purchased was my outfit () and my MOH (). She choose to purchase an outfit for her daughter to be a bride’s maid (without my consent because the 6 year old was jealous).
The second aunt paid for the food. I went shopping with her and kept the cost down ().
All the other things (painting her kitchen, wallpaper, stenciling the walls, wall sconces and candles and more floral decorations) was their ideas and she, of course, kept them. There was also more decorations bought for her new 12 ft. Christmas tree.
The total comes to over ,000. They say that was the cost of my wedding. I say that was the cost of her re-decorating
her home.
(P.S.) My aunts stepped in because they promised after my mother died that they would give me my wedding.
I did not ask all the re-decorating. It was a family only wedding (around15-20 people). None of the flowers, decorations, or even the leftover food came to my house.
I loved my wedding but 7 years later I still hear about how much my wedding cost. Yet, I know for each of their daughters’ weddings cost about ,000 to ,000. It’s not the money ( and I know I am not their daughter so it is not the same). It is the comments that mine cost so much.
Who is right? Was the re-decorating part of the cost of my wedding or was the wedding an excuse to re-decorate?
Can the re-decorating be defined as a legitimate part of the wedding budget?
As to was she intending to re-decorate-yes and no. She wanted to and had been picking out paint and wallpaper samples for a year before I met my husband.
As to why it is still an issue- because it is with the aunts. As recently as this past weekend, one aunt listed all the things they paid for and how much it cost them. The general topic of weddings can not come up without hashing it over again but it is never mentioned how much the other weddings cost them. I feel defensive every time this happens which is about once a month.
The party is at my mother in laws house and its casual, we are having food, drinks, and we will do a toast and cut our wedding cake. Do we need to wear our wedding attire? It’s all white and its getting chilly.
at decorating cakes with marzipan and sugar paste i just didnt know royal icing went onto marzipan, are all wedding cakes and christmas cakes supposed to be like that? if someone orders one from me should i do it with royal icing or just marzipan and sugar paste as i would normally?
Both cakes would have a few real peach lilies and/or peach rose petals for color.

Where can I find great cupcakes for delivery for my wedding?
How long does it take to do all the pictures for ceremony and between at a location, then reception? Also, do these prices seem reasonable? Tell me your thoughts and any advice!
