We are looking at ways to cut cost and as we've been getting prices from the bakers, the cakes are costing about $5 per person and up. I read in a magazine that one way to cut cost is to go with a smaller 'actual' cake and get a sheet cake. Since the cake is cut in the kitchen, no one will ever know.
I'm wondering if anyone has done this. If so, how large of an actual wedding cake did you do? We are planning on anywhere from 150-175 guests.
