Funfetti is supposed to be for a Betty Crocker cake that the wife makes with the kids for fun on a Saturday. Not something you get when ordering the groom's cake from a wedding cake baker.

I mean maybe, just maybe, the groom wanted a funfetti cake.

Only gays know what’s wrong with that pic. Hopefully I’ll figure it out soon

ETA: I don’t have a problem with y’all being gay, just making point. I support yalls right for gay marriage and even know gay people. But sorry, if you can figure out something wrong with that pic you are simply gay, not a big deal

I'd rather spend that money on a kick arse honeymoon, a down payment on a new house or car, or just put it into a rainy day fund.

Spending tens of thousands of dollars for one afternoon/night to cater to people you don't see everyday or even once a month just never made sense to me.


Neither does the “I’d rather” crowd.

What’s wrong with having an expensive reception and an awesome honeymoon if you can still afford both and all of the rest. Some folks act like you only have a certain amount of money to spend on all of those things and have to allocate it how they’d want it.

I had Southern Maid donuts for my “grooms cake,” and that was fricking delicious. I can get on board for red solo cups and shitty Walmart cutlery being on the tacky side, but I’ll be damned if I’m not gonna have the cake I want at my own gd wedding. Nobody really cares about the grooms cake as much as the wedding cake anyway.

That’s fine if you wanna have what you want. But there’s tons of better options than funfetti cake, groom probably just doesn’t know it bc they went so cheap

Lemon cake
Red velvet
Carrot cake
Marble
Chocolate cake
Devils food
Strawberry
White chocolate raspberry
Cookies and cream
Etc

You’re not paying for it... The bride’s father is. You put your own $15,000 into a house or car.

I can confirm the reception was dry and had no Jim beam.

I look forward to your revised commentary

Well that’s understandable and maybe the baw who had that cake actually did save the money instead. Maybe it’s their third marriage.

I just never understood the hate the OT spews on people for their weddings and what they do.



Now, I can understand the hate for people going into debt to try and do something elaborate. But that’s as dumb as buying an F350 without truck nuts.

Granted, our daughter is 10, so we BETTER have a ways to go before we have this discussion with her and her future husband.

But, what my wife and I have discussed is to essentially have a budget in mind for the wedding and then give them options. Would you rather:

A) Use the entire amount towards the wedding.
B) Half towards wedding; half towards debt, house, etc.
C) Do you want half the money and just go elope (s is my least favorite)

You get the idea...

Unless you marry into a poor family or remarry. Pretty sure OP would fall under one of those two

Why would you give your daughter money to elope? The whole point of y’all paying for the wedding is so you can have a nice event to celebrate your daughter and her new husband

No crawfish shells on the table with the groom's cake.

Should be a pile of condoms beside it also. People get in the mood for bridesmaid sex at a wedding and you never know what she might have.
