This was a scramble to fix up! The icing was melting... the tiers collapsing.. There 'were' four tiers. When I started assembling them at the hall, they kept tilting and would have crashed. They smooshed into the lower cake and when removed; the top icing ~removed~ with them! Luckily I had brought a LOT of extra icing and the hall owner was able to "donate" the platters. The hydrangeas were not planned, but used to save the day! First wedding cake.. and for my son. (my DIL still loves me!)
