Wday cake

I went window shopping yesterday and came across this cake pan from my favorite store, williams and sonoma. I picture a couple of these made out of R&R's fav cakes and a bunch of little ones.

a reflection of R&R

so i've been thinking of what type of wedding would suite R and I the best off of the little opinions R has shared with me. The opinion that's helped the most is that he wants it to have color. I am also taking into consideration that our budget is $10,000. Which, BTW, I have saved $150 so far. Just $9,850 to go! While I was brainstorming today in the usual Hawaii nei traffic jam I thought about making our wedding a vintage hawaiian wedding (nothing cliche of course), 60's-70's inspired. I figured that would have color, right? It'd be fun, and it could also be less dow-llars. Ideally I'd love it to be both town&country.

Dream Wday location shot down

Ssssooooooo i am very sad that i will not be able to afford to get married at my dream wedding location. i got an email from the onsite wedding coordinator who informed me that a wedding of 100 guests will run around $25,000-$30,000. That's just $15,00-$20,000 more then our budget, which is more then half. That's crazy talk. Damn, i'm so bummed! I was very excited and in love with this place too.
