I've done a few small wedding cakes before, but this is my first big one. SCARY!! Can't find the creator of the cake I used for inspiration for this, but thank you!! Lots I'd do differently--obviously learn from each one. Hopefully I'm my own worst critic, but please---I'd appreciate your honest feedback--I won't be offended. Thanks!!!

Your cake is nice The only thing I think is that your lilies could have been much bigger needs the balance on top. Other than that you did a good job icon_smile.gif

It's very pretty. One thing you can to is use a bench scraper on the sides and that will get rid of the "slight" bulge and give you a nice straight side. Now, that's about as picky as I can get. icon_wink.gif It's beautiful! thumbs_up.gif

It is soooo pretty! What size cakes did you use?

I would maybe add larger flowers to the top layers but it is great just as is also.!!!

I think you did a great job, it looks really nice and smooth. I have to agree with the other members about possibly next time adding larger flowers. You did do a great job though!!!!!!!!

It's beautiful!! I love the design! I agree that larger flowers on top would give it a nice balance. Wonderful...I hope to do a cake like that someday!

Thank you all so much for the very nice comments. I know what you mean about the flowers--I was going from a picture of a three tier as the example the bride picked, it was much smaller and I should have thought to enlarge the flowers to go with the bigger cake-----especially for the topper.
Thank you all again!!!!
