Jeremy and his wife Gosia tried to save as much money as they could, so they just didn’t have a flowers budget or perhaps a cake budget to speak of.

Instead of paying a huge amount of dollars for a wedding cake, Jeremy and Gosia, with the help of Jessica and pastry chef friend baked a gorgeous one. They purchased two of Costo’s sheet cakes, resized them before cutting them into thirds

The cakes were then re-frosted and decorated with $10 worth of Trader Joe’s flowers. The result is fantastic, and it sure looks like it’s worth more than $50! The wedding cake is undoubtedly the biggest highlight of a wedding, aside from the wedding dress.

Each guest looks forward to seeing and eating it, hence it’s best to have a good one. And because they are so critical they are incredibly costly as well. A great quality wedding cake will cost more than 1000 bucks.
