I think what you have should just make the 20 servings.   Doubling the layers will double your serving #s - putting you way over the amount you need.   I suggest cutting the cake - fully stacked - while it is cold but not fzn.

OMG i did it last night and crumb coated. now the fear is flipping it upside down, fear of crumbling.

Well you're off to a great start.  You say you wish to flip it so the smallest layer is on the bottom?  That should not be a problem - especially if the cake is cold.
