well...its 10 weeks to go now!!
Next weekend we are getting the guys measured up for their kilts. I cant wait!
then the following week I'm of to the seamstress to have my dress altered! I have lost weight since I had it made and its too bog in the bust and waist
I had a cake crisis!! Thought it was all sorted but no.... sent her the pic and said...do it exactly like the picture please minus the flowers. I have some decorations for the cake.
Simples? no!!
She said ok after weeks, so I thought things were cool.
Then I realised I didnt tell her what flavours I wanted so I emailed her again. After waiting and waiting she said she was sick in bed and would get back to me. But she is my mums next door neighbour so I knew she was not ill. Any way she emailed me back to say I cant have all the flavours as I had named 5 and she was only doing 4 layers of *very* think cake!!
I emailed her back to say, thats not what I wanted and she replied saying... look at the pic the layers are thin, and Im only doing 4 and they wont be triple thickness like the pic!!
So I said well, can you just replicate the picture please? and she said to do that she would have to add a 12" and 3" cake at the EXTRA cost of £150!! making the total £300
RAGE!!!!
The hotel are doing us a croque en bouche and I know plenty of other bakers who are much much better than her. I only went with her as she was my mums next door neighbour.
I emailed http://www.lilycupcake.co.uk/ and she is doing a fantastic cake at a much better deal The exact replica of the pic for £160. her email was so detailed and polite!
now Im thinking PHEW!!!
I just have to pay a few other things of and thats it!! just waiting for the day to come!!
