How much cake if serving two desserts?

We're planning a NC style bbq menu for our outdoor wedding and in addition to wedding cake will be offering Chocolate Burboun Pecan Pie.

My question, do I still order the wedding cake to feed 75 if there are two dessert options? Desserts won't be plated, things will be sliced and put out on individual plates for guests to come and pick up.

    I think you need to offer enough wedding cake to feed everyone since traditionally you save a bit of wedding cake for your first anniversary.

    It's doubtful that every guest will eat the cake, but it's better to have a few leftover slices than not enough.

    I am having dessert at my wedding as well. I am still ordering a cake to feed all of my guests. I'm not sure if this is the "right" thing to do but I feel that I should provide enough cake for everyone, in case they want it. I'd rather have extra than not enough.
