Thought We'd share pics of our Wedding Cakes

[Cplofdisneynutz]

Well finally 3 months after the wedding we have gotten around to resizing and and posting some of the pictures. First off we did not have a FTW @ disney, we got married in virginia and honeymooned @ WDW, but we had a very obvious disney theme throughout the wedding/reception. It was wonderful :goodvibes Anyway, we thought we would share a few pictures of our cakes, because it was this board that we got a lot of our ideas. We hope you enjoy.

This was our grooms cake:
http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f294/cplofdisneynutz/GroomsCakeThanksMarla.jpgMy Aunt makes the best cheese cakes in the world and she had the idea to make 3 seperate cakes and then decorate it like this!! We LOVED it :love:

This was our wedding cake:
http://i49.photobucket.com/albums/f294/cplofdisneynutz/100_0049.jpg The champange glasses in front of the cake were from the disney florist, they have mickey ears etched in the glass, and of course the cake serving set had mickey and minnie on the handles (it's hard to see in the picture).

take care and may all your wishes come true!!

Our wedding cake:

The topper is our undergrad college mascot! The cake is...well, not what I wanted, but DH had strong feelings about what he wanted, so I gave in a little. Also, we had to have such a big one that it made it difficult to really have what we wanted because we had a huge number of guests.

[Glass Slipper]

Great idea with the cheesecakes! It looks very yummy!

Great cakes!

[castoff]

Beautiful cakes ! Here is mine.

[JandJ]

We upgraded our Intimate cake. I really wanted a square cake with edible flowers in our colors (burgundy and ivory) on top and cascading down the side (of course you don't really want to eat that sugar stuff!) and Disney got it exactly the way I wanted and it was absolutely delicious :goodvibes

Jen,

If you don't mind my asking, I am also curious as to how you upgraded your intimate wedding cake...I did not know this was allowed. What choices do you get in your upgrade?


Thanks!!!!

Re: Upgrading Intimate Cake

I told my EM that I didn't like the standard Intimate cake and I had my heart set on a square cake. I googled square wedding cake and found a couple pictures and sent them to her with a very detailed description of what I wanted. She told me "don't worry about it" and I just left it in the Disney bakery's hands and they got it perfect! I don't remember the exact cost but it was right around $260 to get the cake.

This was the "old" Intimate rules as I booked last February and things have changed but Disney will do anything for a price.

Happy Planning :goodvibes

P.S. cryssi your cake is SO cute!

Thanks Jen! :) I saw that cake at Franck's in 2000, and knew that I had to have it! Thank goodness they were able to reproduce it for me at DL! :)


Princess - I love your cake! :yay:

[PrincessMo]

Thanks Cryssi!!

I really like yours too, very nicely laid out and has that splash of colors & you gotta love the mickey & minnie!!!

I originally wanted the cake that they have out at francks studio (i forget the name of it). Then, we got the new cd with the cakes on it and once we both saw that one there was no question!! It was awesome!!

Have A Disney Day!!

[Rustyflwr3]

PrincessMo, I think that must be one of the coolest cakes I have ever seen! Its awesome :)

Jessica

[Codie]

Would any of you believe me if I told you that it appears no one took a close up picture or a full picture of our cake????????? We didn't have a cake at Disney (I could not BEAR the cost) so we had one (so painless and SO cheap--$450 for 300 people) at our home reception...

[MEME]

For our Disney wedding in FL, we had the standard intimate wedding cake, however, for our Post-Wedding Celebration back home we went with a vendor known here as: Heavenly Sweets Cakes. They are indeed, the best (in Indiana) at what they do and have been voted best by our local wedding experts for 3 years running.

Anyway, here is a link to the wedding cake that we ordered. The only difference is the initials and our cake topper was done by a florist and was made with roses only. Our Wedding Cake===Dots and Monograms (http://www.heavenlysweetscakes.com/gallery/page13.htm)

[mickeyfan2]

Can you order a small cake like these if you are at WDW for your anniversary or are they only for weddings. I saw the WDW wedding show and would like one of the individual cakes with the castle that they made.

[Laurafoster]

Does anyone have pics of the new cakes disney offer? i love to see some but my SM is out on Maternity leave!

[Tinkerbelle14]

Does anyone have a picture of the cake that comes with the intimate wedding package? I would love to see an actual picture of it!

Thanks for the picture Jen! I must have a mush brain from school, I completely forgot about checking the Disney website!

No problem, you're welcome :goodvibes

Since we got an upgraded cake they actually gave us the Mickey and Minnie topper in a separate box, which I thought was really nice, I was worried we wouldn't get it at all!

The cake for he Mad Hatter's Bridal Tea


I know that the 3-tier Mad Hatter's cake is $980.00, but has anyone asked if you could do just the two tiers, like Jill's' bridal shower cake. I read somewhere that the Mad Hatter cake is set at $940.00 for 84 people, but if I only have 40-50 people, do you think the two tier would be enough, and would they do it? :confused3

[sajetto]

Beautiful cakes guys, keep em coming!!!

[pixie08]

Princeslisa- I believe you can have a smaller cake (2 tier). I believe Disney charges you for 50 people no matter how many you have and the mad hatter is probably around $15 pp. So figure around $700 for a smaller version but don't quote me on this I am only speculating!

[KT27]

My mad hatter cake is running about $995

[FutureAshleyDukes]

Our cake is the "Monogram of Love," except our is only going to be two tier and with the castle on top. I am so excited for we just found out today that they'll allow us to do this being that we are an intimate wedding. :cool1:

Ashley, if you don't mind me asking, how much extra did they charge you for that?

[FutureAshleyDukes]

I know the castle is going to be about $100 plus tax, and I'm still waiting to see how much the flowers and the design is going to cost.

I just love this cake, what was the cost for this? Also could they do this in a smaller size as there would only be around 15 of us in total and it seems a lot of cake to eat!!

[engagedatWDW]

This is Mickey's Delight that feeds 50 or more people. I was suggested a smaller version that feeds 30 people - they use the two round tiers from the "standard" intimate cake, cover in fondant and stamp with the silver mickeys. There's a picture of it posted by melmel in this thread: http://disboards.com/showthread.php?t=1069631

[cryssi]

thanks! :) I LOVED it!

I'm sure they could make it smaller, you could just have the "water tower", maybe on a small square or circle cake?

It was $9/person for this cake - pricey I know but I HAD to have it ever since I first saw it at Franck's in 2000! :banana:

[Laurafoster]

I have just been told by my EM that if you are a custom wedding then many cakes can only be made for a minimum of 50ppl.

[faeriegrl]

Where did you find these bobble heads of teh disney bride and groom?

Actually I paid to have them custom made from www.whoopassenterprises.com

You send them photos of yourself and your hubby and they carve them by hand to make them look just like you. Mine wasn't that close looking but Frank was a mirror image. I paid extra for the bride & groom ears. Be aware it did NOT fit on our wedding cake. The cake was one inch smaller in diameter on the top layer than the bobble head. We added the castle at the last second and it turned out beautifully.

This is not a "catalog" offering by DFTW, but a blend of 3 cakes from the DFTW cake book. Many styles can and have been altered to fit the B/G taste and theme.

[cryssi]

very cool...

[starflower]

I love your cake KT. My fiance desperately wants the Mad Hatter cake for our reception, but we're only having 45 people so it we'd have a ton of it left over, not to mention it wouldn't be cost effective for such a small group. As of now, we're still searching for ideas.

You can get a 2 tier mad hatter cake made.

[starflower]

KT, thanks I didn't know that! There might be hope for my fiance's cake dreams yet. We'll have to ask when we go down for the planning session how much a two-tier mad hatter would cost.

Anyone know if/how much a two tier Mad hatter is??? How many would it feed??

I love you wedding cake. I am doing the same with the Monogram initial. As a matter of fact I found your cake posted on the website I am getting it from. I glad to see that it was a Disney cake, its very similar to what I want.

[dsnyfan6/18]

I loved my wedding cake! We had 35 people at the wedding, and we could only do a cake for a minimum of 50 people, so we had the whole middle layer and top layer when we left the reception.

We gave the middle layer to the bell staff at the GF when we checked out and we wanted to take the top layer home for our anniversary. Unfortunately with the heat and carrying it everywhere with us, it didn't make it. When I got home and opened the box, it was completely smashed in :-( But at least i have the pictures to remember it!

Keep posting...I love to look at all the cakes here!

I had 35 guests but "had" to have the 3 tier, a 2 tier would be perfect for 20 guests. I was thrilled with my cake! Go for it!

I designed both the wedding cake and the groomscake. The baker that I found in Atlanta was SO excited to do a Disney-style cake... she's always wanted to do one :o)

Here are 2 pictures of my wedding cake... we had our initials ACT on the top tier.

i LOVE this cake! and i love the Christmas trees and stuff around it! very nice!

Thank you so much. I was very happy with how it all turned out.

Have A Magical Day!

I designed both the wedding cake and the groomscake. The baker that I found in Atlanta was SO excited to do a Disney-style cake... she's always wanted to do one :o)

Here are 2 pictures of my wedding cake... we had our initials ACT on the top tier.

Here is the picture of our groomscake... we went for a Fantasia theme in order to incorproate Tommy's love of music (he's a musician). The orchestral score for "The Sorcerer's Apprentice" is on the cake...

awww i love the Sorcerer's grooms cake!! my DF isn't really a huge cake fan, so it's going to be hard enough to make him eat our wedding cake lol. but he loves Fantasia and Sorcerer Mickey. i'll have to show this to him.

:offtopic: LilIrishChick,
Being from the same area as I am, have you heard much about Groom's Cakes before? I think I never heard of them until I came on these boards.

lol. well, i've heard of them, but i've never actually seen one in all of the weddings i've been to around here. my DF doesn't really "Get" the whole grooms cake thing. but like i said, he doesn't even like cake all that much either, so he just says "it's more cake that i won't want to eat" lol. but he did say he'll eat the actual wedding cake because....it IS our wedding!

[mermaidbride1108]

WOW ~ these cakes are so creative and it gave me so many ideas! I love the seashell cakes and the one with cinderella and the bridge

Since I see this is a old thread I found, do we have any more cakes to add?

I think I have too much time on my hands at work :badpc: and just like dreaming about my future wedding and reading this board!

[MzEeyore]

I found these and thought that they were really neat if you were having a beach themed or Little Mermaid theme.

does any one know if you have to have disney make your cake or can you get it from an outside vendor?

All the cakes are lovely, I love the sea shell ones, we dont really have a theme like that yet only colours at the moment

[QUOTE=orangetiggs;17278671]does any one know if you have to have disney make your cake or can you get it from an outside vendor?

I beleive you have to use Disney for all food and beverage, which includes your cake.

Here was our cake! I designed it (DH picked the color). I loved it!!!:goodvibes http://i25.photobucket.com/albums/c85/slowe09/FH070016.jpg

You have to use Disney for any and all food and beverage including cake. The only exception is wrapped favors if you make them yourself or something like that. Disney takes food safety VERY seriously.

This was our intimate cake.

I didn't think it was as beautiful as Fairy Tale Bride's and Maggimus's cake. It was very plain and boring. In hindsight...I wish I upgraded the cake.

[Maggimus]

I really dont have a clue why they change these cakes? I realize different people make them at different times but in all honesty-- sometimes you get different from what they advertise. I have seen some with color on them too-- and no one had requested the color be put on the cake. I just dont understand them sometimes:confused3

I wonder if they actually forgot about my cake. It tasted SO stale. My WP was away on vacation for the 2 weeks before my wedding and returned the day of. I wonder if it was actually ordered as a wedding cake or if they "made do" at the last minute with a cake that was already in the bakery. It just didn't look like a "wedding" cake, you know? It's fine though...I had a "re-do" when I got home. On our "one month" anniversary I just ordered a cake (chocolate with chocolate mousse and white buttercream icing) from a great cake place in St.catharines and DH and I really enjoyed it :rotfl:

[Bostonbride6292008]

Hello,

I love your cake! Can you tell me how much it ended up costing you I think I want a very simmilar cake.

[Maggimus]

I dont know:confused3 Ive seen a lot of disney intimate cakes that ended up different. I do think they should train everyone to have a somewhat standard approach as to making them look alike. Atleast then we know what we are getting instead of showing up the day of hoping we get the one we wanted..:wizard:

[JandJ]

This was our intimate cake.

I think it's lovely! Your cake reminds me of Mommy_Poppins' cake (page 5 of this thread). Like Maggimus said, it just depends on who is making it that day. Some of the Intimate cakes are more intricately decorated, but they always seem to do a nice job. I am sorry though that you didn't think it tasted that good.

My sister works with a gentleman who used to be a DFTW EM and he said the best cakes come out of the WL bakery so I guess we got lucky that we got married there :goodvibes Our upgraded cake looked and tasted amazing!

[prprincess]

Here's a pic of my wedding cake. Sorry that the pic is a bit washed out, but my wedding was 4 years ago, and my photographer was still using film, so it's from a scan. Our wedding was beach-themed--the reception was at Ariel's, and the shells and coral on the cake were all white chocolate.

that *is* strange. I really love your cake maggie.. I wonder if I can request to get it done with all that fancy icing on the sides. hmm.

[Maggimus]

Thanks for saying that-- I cant really take any credit though because my cake was pretty much luck of the draw--I didnt design it what-so-ever!

[sajetto]

Since all of you are questioning it, the reason that all of the cakes look different is that the designs are specific to the bakery. In ForKeep's case hers really is unsual for the GF bakery, but otherwise the other cakes seen are standard unless they are upgraded.

[Maggimus]

Sajetto-- We have actually had a lot of intimate cakes posted in the past that have been somewhat different-- some with colored icing even-- not upon request. I think thats what we were talking about. They are suppost to be very standard, but most of the time they are slightly different in design and sometimes color. Like Jen said, I think it has to do with who makes the cake that day.:confused3. I think this was mainly just talking about how sometimes there are differences in the cakes... all turning out beautifully.

[hiwaygal]

I've been reading along on this thread...someone;) took a peek at my pics and asked me to post a pic of my cake. So here it is:

http://i20.photobucket.com/albums/b241/lunaselene66/Disney%20Wedding/002190-0034.jpg

This was the basic intimate wedding cake. I did not ask for anything special. The green icing didn't bother me in the least because I had planned my entire wedding to be very casual, lighthearted, and maybe even a bit whimsical.

Over the years I've seen lots of pics of cakes. Each of them is really beautiful, IMO. One of the things I've noticed is that traditionally, I guess, they are almost always all white. Having a touch of color makes it stand out a bit more, or just gives it a more personal/customized feel.

I like to think the chefs who make these cakes are artists (and I'm sure they think the same thing;) ). Because of that, even if they have some standard they go by, my guess is they put some decorative, individual touch on each and every one to make it special.

[luna99]

I'm going to be talking with juliana tomorrow so I'll ask her about the cakes and why they look different and if I can request anything or colors even though I'm having an intimate wedding. :thumbsup2

[Cinderella Fan]

Tiffany and Maggie - I think BOTH of your cakes are just beautiful! I really like the simplicity of them, but then again, that is just me...:confused3

Our cake was simple, but I wanted the white chocolate castle - it is now in a glass dome in my dining room. I have forbidden DH to eat it or I will rip his toungue out....:lmao:

Very appropriate for a December wedding, IMO :love:
http://i83.photobucket.com/albums/j320/aleffel/Wedding/HPIM0156.jpg

[ForKeeps]

Thanks to everyone who said that my cake was lovely. I was fine with what I received. I mean, I had the option to upgrade and chose to go with the standard cake. I do think it was a bit unusual, like sajetto said...and I do think it was kinda boring. But that's ok.

I'm not bitter or anything...it just wasn't a favourite part of my wedding. And I'm glad that I loved my bouquet (I would have been disappointed if I didn't like my bouquet) and I did manage to get 2 cakes out of the deal in the end ;)

[DisneyBrideWannabe]

Maggimus: Love your cake, thinking about requesting a look-a-like. You didn't pay anything extra?? I don't really want to upgrade my cake to a bigger one or anything, just change the decoratation on the outside (without adding flowers, etc...). I like the design of your more than the regular intimate cake!:cutie:

First off, I have to say this is such a beautiful photo of you two! Your DH looks adorable in this pic and so happy! You look stunning!

I actually saw the picture of your cake and loved it before I read that you said it was plain and boring. I think it's lovely and I do love the flowers!

I had no idea that all of the intimate wedding cakes were different until I found The DIS a month after our wedding. I thought they woudl all look the same, but it does make everyone's a little more special. :wizard:

I love your cake!!I hope that they can make my cake like that. Would it be a little bigger since I am having a custom?

[Summer-Caitlin]

Although I actually love the cakes that For keeps and Maggimus had. I am asking if mine can be sort of personalised. I have asked that I have black satin ribbon and real calla lillies on the cake, I am also asking for sparkly edible dust to be sprinkled on the cake.
Tanis said she will get back to me to see if their is any upgrade charge.

http://i139.photobucket.com/albums/q283/georgiajaimie_2006/wedding/003305-0101.jpg

We had marble cake and white chocolate mousse.

[Maggimus]

Thanks everyone for the compliments

DisneyBrideWannabe- Yeah im sure you can request it. Why dont you copy and save the photo to your computer and then email it to your coordinator telling her you want it to look just like that one. I did that a lot with my coordinator out of fear things might be slightly different-- remember you ar ehaving an intimate but you still have a say. And nope-- no extra charge (i do things the budget way!)

Lynn- Since you are having a custom you can have yours look just about any way you want (Im sure with a charge-- but i dont know how all that works).... if you want yours like that just tell them-- but you have a lot more flexability in cakes (much like the other neat cakes on this thread). Let us know what you decide!!

:grouphug:

[disprincessatheart]

Has anyone done any Tigger or Nascar themed cakes for a groom's cake or any other events? I want to do a cake at our rehearsal dinner, and I thought Tigger would be perfect since he's DF's favorite, but I haven't seen any tigger cakes anywhere...

[heatherlynn444]

:love: here is my cake. i know its not a disney cake...but I absolutely LOVED it. my colors were brown and blue, and they did an amazing job! i was very happy with it! (except we had an "M" to put on top and the cake ppl forgot to put it on! bah.

Thanks girls! Maggie, that was the reason I designed it like that! You know how the winters can be around here... And, though we were getting hitched in FL, we were still having a winter wedding. I wanted something to remember all of the snow at home...;)

How much extra is the white castle if you decide to add it?

[luna99]

my cake tasted soo good-- i really wish I had a piece of it now..:cloud9:

what flavors did you choose?

I talked with juliana yesterday and she said I can do the two layers separate flavors! I'm so happy cause my DF is a chocoholic and I"d prefer something like almond with raspberry or something.

I forgot to ask about the different styles of intimate cake though. :rolleyes:

[Maggimus]

I totally forgot what flavors I had. :laughing: I had to pull out the ole wedding binder and look. We had Marble cake with Strawberry filling-- and it was DELICIOUS!:cloud9:

[Cinderella Fan]

How much extra is the white castle if you decide to add it?


It is $125 plus tax.... But is worth every penny, IMO!! It is just beautiful in person!

[Summer-Caitlin]

Hmmm, I'm confused, I don't really know what to do now:confused3 I love the look of some of the intimate cakes but I just wanted to make the cake my own I guess. I sent in a picture to Tanis and she has told me they can do all I've asked for and the price is likely to be minimal if at all, as there isn't a huge variation from the intimate anyway.
I think I may look again at pictures online and see if I can find a cake I absolutely fall in love with, and only then will I send in the pic. The white castle is tempting though......

[mermaidbride1108]

I'm justifying spending money on the cake in Disney and then not having a cake at our home reception - is that weird? To invite people to a wedding party/reception and not serve traditional wedding cake? I was thinking like cute cupcakes with candy or chocolate seashells on top.

Our idea for the reception is a late night celebration party - a chance to celebrate with everyone at home who doesnt come to Disney. Not a full formal dinner, but heavy hor derves desserts and open bar

I just don't want have to buy for things twice - I see my wedding will be at Disney, at home I just want to celebrate our new marriage.

Is that strange to do? subsituting cake for other deserts and themed capcakes?:confused3

[ClaireandSimon]

Was your cake an intimate or custom cake?
Claire x

[Tammy32]

I wanted to join the cake fun, so I posted mine on this thread too. I was just looking through the thread again and there are some beautiful cakes on there. I remember the beginning of this thread was when I was planning mine and see everyones cake really helped us decide on ours. Thanks again for posting your cake photos.

On a side note....we just got back from visiting WDW last night and we visited all the places are wedding took place. I see them all in a different light now. It was magical going back after the wedding and reliving our special memories. We talked about everything all over again, the flower, the cake, the fireworks, etc.

I *totally* wanna have cupcakes for my at-home reception, so I don't think it's weird at all. It's actually a pretty big trend right now. We have a cupcake place called Sprinkles (a teeny chain of, I think, two stores) that makes the most amazing huge delicious cupcakes, and they sell tiered stands to display them on - it looks kinda like a cake made out of cupcakes.

In fact, now that I think about it, the only reason I even want to bother with an at-home reception is so I can have Sprinkles!:rotfl:

[hmgolden]

If you look at page 2 of this thread, you'll see that Fantasia Sam had cupcakes at her at home reception. I think its a great idea. :)

[Swmhc]

I'm going to be talking with juliana tomorrow so I'll ask her about the cakes and why they look different and if I can request anything or colors even though I'm having an intimate wedding. :thumbsup2

Let me know what you find out from Juliana. She is my WC as well. I sent her an email with several questions, including cake options and haven't heard back from her yet !

I don't have a really good one yet- the colors are sort of off on this one! We did the frog prince at the top and the scotties at the bottom was suppose to represent my dog!
It is a little out there and I had no idea what it was going to look like, but it was definitely fun!

We are also not doing a traditional wedding cake at our at-home wedding (can't see spendnig $250 for only 50 people). Instead we are thinging of either renting a chocolate fountian with diff't fruits and cake pieces($75) or having a dessert table with may different desserts (cookies, cheescake. make-your-own strawberry shortcake). Just thought I'd share. :)

First off, not having a cake at your wedding is NOT bad...i've been to a wedding before where they had cupcakes in all different flavors for everyone. Personally, we had chocolate fountains at our wedding in addition to our cake....and everyone LOVED it. We had one white chocolate and one milk chocolate with a ton of dipping things (strawberries, rice krispy treats, sugar wafers, etc.)...I didn't get near it (i was worried i'd drop it all over my dress) but there was a huge line for it the whole night! Here's a picture:

This cake is beautiful! If I would have had a custom cake, it would have looked just like this! I don't have pics of my intimate cake to share, but it looks very much like Mommy Poppins' from page 5.

[Lizby]

Bumping...I know there's a newer cake thread out there somewhere, but this one has a lot of pics of the variations of Escape cakes. I thought it was helpful!

[pink_tink8i8]

that cake is really something else :lovestruc . It has such a magical appeal to it.
