I'm making a 50th Anniversary cake soon and the "bride" wants her cake reproduced. The picture is a bit fuzzy and I think I can figure out the designs but the corners with icing going from top of the cake to bottom. Any ideas?????????????? or any other help would be GREAT! Thanks! 
That is a lot of buttercream...so cute though that she wants to recreate her wedding cake. I think the corners look like just a spiral running vertically with a good sized star tip.
ditto
There are a lot more expert people on this forum than me (for sure!), but it looks like the same piped pattern repeats on the 1st and 3rd tiers, and then again on the 2nd and 4th tiers. Kind of looks like the same star-ish tip was used for all the piping, so that should make it easier. What other sort of details are stumping you?
I think there might be a rosette at the top of each corner.

It starts at the bottom and goes toward the top. It's just a shell border that is piped with a slight "C"-shaped movement of your wrist, and it's built up on itself.

On on each layer or just one big movement from bottom to top? Thanks!

I'm not quite sure I understand your question correctly, but I'll try to answer anyway and I hope I get it right...
Each corner appears to have five "C"-shaped shell borders moving upward vertically towards the next tier. Do five or whatever fits on each corner, then work on the next tier, and so on.
Beautiful job!! I think it looks gorgeous, and you did a great job of recreating her wedding cake!
I absolutetly LOVE this!!!!! The cake you made is beautiful. I'm a very old fashioned person and what she had would be along the lines of what I would pick for my wedding cake and I'm in my early 30's. LOL. She sounds like a sweet lady and I'm sure she appreciates your hard work to make it perfect for her!
