      <![CDATA[maybe you should say you tried cake at papa haydn. their cake there is pretty good. <br>
<br>
also, spend the money on booze<br>
<br>
finally, when you are selecting cake decoration, make sure you ask for something "simple and elegant" coz wedding planners love that shit.

      <![CDATA[Alex, your 12-year old niece is cute, but are you sure the whole marriage thing is legal?  I kid, I kid.<br>
<br>
My wife and I did the carrot cake from Pambiche.  We had a small (under 50 people) outdoor wedding, devoted very little money on decorations, flowers, etc., and instead chose to splurge on food and booze.  I recommend that course of action.
