4 tiers, all buttercream, pillared with flowers in between. I think the florist did a great job with the flowers! The border was made of sheer ribbon. The ribbon looks spotted in the picture, however it looked fine in person (I think it was just from the flash on the camera). I have other photos where the ribbon looks fine, but this really is the best picture of the cake itself so I wanted to use it for posting. TFL!
