    A friend of ours has a cake business (Cakes by Laura) and she is making our cakes for us. The wedding cake is white almond cake with raspberry or lemon filling (different layers). The groom's cake is chocolate cake with raspberry and chocolate covered strawberryies piled around the bottom.

    I am so giddy about it!! My fiance says my face lights up every time I talk about it. :)
