Do I have to buy the cake cutting set?

Ok... honestly... I'm not going to want this after the day is over... do I HAVE to get this? I'm starting to feel overwhelmed by the little details... boo.

Nope, you don't have to get one. A lot of people keep them for sentimental value. Check with your caterer/venue. Mine had one I used at no charge. I knew I wouldn't care about keeping it either.

Thanks! I think I'm being a big baby because I just saw one on amazon for $6.95...

I am definitly not buying a cakr cutter and server set. I think its a waste of money for something I know I will never use again..can you say Ima ghetto big knife and spatuala kinda girl lol. Luckily the venu is lending us one at no extra cost along with different jars for the candy buffet !!!

See... I almost bought the amazon one for $6.95, but first I sent an email to the venue coordinator to see what they have...

No not a necessity, Although I still use my first one. It is good for scooping out pie. I got one from Michaels for $24. At least I know I will use it again. Then I will throw out the old one with the first info on it lol.

no. I dont know if you guys got cub foods where you at but they give you a free plastic black cake set when you buy a cake (with their logo on it). I'm thinking about just using that. i have a couple sets. the photographer doesnt need to get a picture of our cake cutting set.

We don't have cub foods here, but I'm sure I'm either going with the free venue shot or the $5 Walmart or $6.95 amazon set...

Benita, you don't want to keep that old set for the memories??? LOL... I already have something I can get pie out with!!!

It's either or for me in terms of the toasting glasses and knife cutting set. I'm only going to buy one and keep it. My venue already said they have the cake cutting set, so I think I will opt to purchase toasting glasses.

I have some toasting flutes already from Princess House that I was planning to use...
