Do you suppose that we are really gonna hafta wait until Monday to hear anything?

Man, Momma's not gonna get any sleep tonight.

Let's all give OP a little credit cakers. I doubt this is just a yarn. If it is. Maybe in OP's next life she should be a writer.

This has been the most fun. Hearing all the different endings everyone has come up with.

Okay so I know eveyone is dying for the ending , sorry i had a friends wedding yesterday and then eatser and church stuff today.


took bottom tier of the cake to venue sat before heading out with cake #2

MOG went and took her ring back from Bride that she had let her son give her as an engagemnet ring and then left the wedding because her son was still going through with it.


MOB saw walmart cake boxes and took them off the table and just tried cutting and serving, from the kitchen, venue rep just told people the truth when they asked about the cakes whereabouts....I didnt really get to hang around and chat for long and as happy as i am bride wont be getting away with it I just prefer not to take too much delight in her torment...karma ( and law) will catch up with her.

As for the bank I took them a basket of treats including top tier of cake, saturday morning,
Their policy is that if someone knowing tries to commit a banking fraud against one of it account holders, they will step up help prosecute this as a fraud case, which means, they turn everything over to prosecutors, and i will of course have to provide my documentations and the bank suggested that i wouldnt hurt just for me to have my own attorney also, which is no big deal.

The filing coming from the bank rather than than an individual helps push things along faster apparently.


Anyways, I took the rest of the cake to my church, which everyone loved, I also have letters from the bank, venue, and church saying that I had given them the cake so that the bride cant try to claim that maybe i just had a pic and no real cake.

So sorry it has taken me so long to get back on here and I still have yet to completely finish reading pages 32-end.


Thanks agian for all the support...YOU GUYS ROCK!!!

Wow! I'm so glad that the bank is going to set up the prosecution! You should get back your very well earned payment for the cake (which was incredibly beautiful!)

I'm sure that everyone who had some of your cake must have LOVED the special treat!

Thanks for posting again! We've all been watching with great anticipation!

I just wish this bridezilla would have learned some valuable life lessons earlier in life so that this wouldn't have had to happen to her. Shame on her and MOB.

That's... WOW. I mean, I love the MOG, I do believe. I wonder what the groom had to say about the whole thing?

Wanna bet the honeymoon suite was a bit frosty that night? icon_lol.gif

Thank you dsevans for the update. I hope you had a blessed and peaceful Easter. I know your church and the bank really enjoyed it as well as the venue. I bet it was some reception. I would have given anything to be a guest at that one.
Poor Groom, he may feel he can change her of her imputent ways. I was telling my brother who is an attorney about this and he said what the bank did was 9 times out of 10 the way most handle it. He was in finance before he went to law school working at the now defunct Barnett Bank in Tampa and he said there were two brides who pulled similar stunts at the time he was there but one was for the venue and the other the dj. I guess it takes all kinds of people.
Get some rest and have a great week.

Poor dsevens is just trying to survive a very stressful weekend and not let it ruin her holiday and we're practically stalking her here, LOL! Thanks for the update... why do I have a feeling we're going to see this bride on Dr. Phil whining about her evil MIL who took her ring back and left the wedding? Why do I not think the MIL's reaction was ALL about a cake? I'm sure there's SO much more going on here. I feel sorry for the MOG/now-MIL!

MOG is my new best friend. I sincerely doubt that she would snag the ring back and leave based solely on one incident. Sounds like this was the last straw for MOG.

The whole thing is sad - but will be worthwhile if the bride responds to the wake-up call and changes her ways.

Yay! I am so proud of you! I think that I would like to have stuck around with a big ole cheesy smile plastered on my face! And way to go MOG! I guess everyone knows where she stands on this wedding.

It really sucks that her relationship with her son probably just took a big hit. I was thinking though that the bride has definately done this stuff before because you would have to be pretty confident in yourself to try this at your WEDDING, when most people want that to be the most perfect and memorable day ever! Well it wasn't perfect but she still got the memorable. icon_lol.gif

I still have time to go make dinner in peace now. Yay me. icon_biggrin.gif

So not the ending I was expecting, but it sure was an unbeliveably satisfying one! So sorry this happened but I think you handled it so well. And I just want to say thanks for posting about it (As I said in many, MANY earlier posts this has happened to my husband in a different type of business and I thought there was nothing that could be really done, but if it happens again I am looking to you for inspiration!). Good Luck with everything! and have a happy easter!

DSevans, I'm glad the bank is taking the lead in this on your behalf. Yes a lawyer for you is a great idea--you'll need your protection.

What a cluster eff--this just makes me very sad for that warped fractured aching family. Very sad.

I mean a wedding to celebrate never ending love where the mog has to make such a stand against her own son. Wow heart breaking huh. Lotta tears flowing, lot more coming.

I'm proud of you DSevans!!! You were a great example throughout all this. No name-calling, no acting "ugly"-just telling the story as they happened w/o stooping to BTB and MOB's level.

That poor MOG-I know she is just mortified over this. She sounds like a classy lady, too.

I agree, but I have to give kudos to mom for standing up for what's right. You cannot even imagine the conversation I would have had with my son had this been his wedding. icon_mad.gif

I just finished a book by Joyce Meyer called "Never Give Up". It's where I got the "eagle" quote in my signature. What it means is that sometimes you have to stand alone .... when you are the only one who won't go party with a bunch of drunk drivers, then you are home alone for the night. When you don't compromise your morals and your standards when those around you are comforming .... then sometimes you stand alone. When you believe in your dream of opening a cake shop and those around you are telling you it's not a good time to open a business and you won't make any money anyway, then you'll probably be building the biz by yourself.

A real life example is my nephew who is in college for a career in ministry. He was instructed to do a paper pro-abortion. It's against what he believes, not to mention it could kill him career-wise when he graduates. He stood his ground, and took an "F" for the project. Everyone else in the class just said, "ok, we'll be sheep and do whatever you say." My nephew, the eagle, soared alone when he stood by his beliefs and his morals.

Birds (of a feather) flock together, but eagles soar alone, high and regal and proud.

This mom-eagle is soaring over those who thought it ok to pull an illegal act to try to cheat someone out of their money.
