Unexpected

I have something that I just HAVE to share with you.
Something very unique for a wedding!
Something you'll look at and say, "Wow. I never would have thought of that."

This California bride (Dandelion Blossom) @ Bridal Buds was having some serious cake decision problems. Her original idea was to do a collection of pies with stands decorated with barbed wire. {Also cool!} After much consideration and talking with family and friends, she decided that she might regret not having a cake after it was all said and done.

What does one do?

Her groom was also Southern - from Texas. And, you know what that means, ladies. A groom's cake!!

Not only did this bride have to come up with a cake for herself but for her groom as well. Miss Dandelion Blossom knew what she wanted. Meet her beautiful, classic cake inspiration.
But...what to do for the groom?? Something non-traditional that still managed to represent the groom. It led her to wood grain cakes. Meet the woodsy, non-traditional cake inspiration.
Now, take a moment. Think about what this could possibly mean. [...] It could mean a LOT of things!! Two cakes {one for each}. Chocolate on the inside; beautiful white, clean decorations. Multi-layered cake {one white and pretty; one chocolate and wood-grainy}.

But...

Would you expect this??

Meet the love child of the two cakes!

Was that what you pictured?

No?

Well, get this!

The round, white cake was CARVED from the square cake right next to it.

If that doesn't blow your mind, then I don't know what will! It completely took me by surprise. :)
