Bach Wedding!

This was my very first wedding cake!  Our friends asked me to be the one to have the honors in making their wedding cake.  The top and bottom layer were lemon cake with vanilla BC and lemon filling alternating the torted layers.  The middle layer was white cake with lemon filling.  The border was hand pipped on and the "ribbon" and monogram were made from MMF and then painted with an edible gold paint. 

Unfortunately I wasn't able to go to the wedding (I was in my first trimester and puking), so my husband got to be the one to deliver the cake.  While during transit there was a bit of a traffic problem and to avoid an accident he had to hit the breaks.  This caused the middle tier to shift ever so slightly and mess up the hand piped border.  Luckily I sent him with a repair kit.  For someone who's NEVER touched a piping bag in his life he did a really good job fixing the problem!
