The bride's family lives on a farm, where they held the wedding. Farms make me nervous, as I have relentless allergies, but this was nothing like I expected.
The wedding was absolutely beautiful and the couple, although I didn't know them before, were the sweetest people.
But let's get to the part we're all interested in - the cake.
While I'm sure the couple spent a ton of money to get their land in tip-top shape for the wedding, they had to have saved so much in other areas. It's nice to see that such a beautiful and heartfelt wedding can happen without shelling out hundreds of dollars for a fancy hall, or a professional cake.
I believe the bride said the cake was made by a family member. She joked that the top layer fell off the day of the wedding, but you couldn't tell anything was amiss with this simple, beautiful end product:

The bride and groom cut themselves a chunk from that cake. The guests were served a different cake, that our friends decided was probably a Jell-O poke whipped cream cake. These cakes are easy to make and I'm sure was a huge money saver. They were made in pink and green to match the wedding colors.

This cake was delicious. It's not your usual wedding cake, but it's good and it's going to please everyone. The colors were a cute addition.
I had three pieces.
Here is a link for a Jell-O cake recipe.
