438. It was a simple wedding ceremony with 4 people in attendance. The bride was absolutely beautiful and groom so handsome. The decision was to hold a civil ceremony and then a more grand wedding reception later in the year. Not only to save money but to be together...finally.
The night before we picked up flowers and created a bouquet for the bride. Because no bride should be without a bouquet of some sort.
The morning of the wedding ceremony, I woke up to the thought, "There isn't a wedding cake! We need a wedding cake!" Because no bride should be without a wedding cake.
So, I quickly baked my favorite vanilla cake and used amaretto and vanilla flavoring in the recipe and frosting. There were flowers remaining, so I used them to decorate the cake.
The happy couple were surprised. They cut the cake together and fed each other a piece. It was darling! And the cake was delicious!
Congratulations to the happy couple! Because all newly married couples need to be congratulated!
"It is such a happiness when good people get together - and they always do."
