Okay, so I'm not really a fan of cake. That being said, I loooooove coconut cake, and was considering it for the wedding. My mom basically called me an idiot for wanting a coconut cake for an October wedding. I tried to compromise, suggesting we have a coconut layer and do the rest pumpkin spice, and she acted as if I wanted to serve puppy ears or something.
Am I crazy, or can I tell her she is?
Re: Cake
I think you should get what you want and if that's coconut, so be it! I don't know how popular coconut is with your average guest though, so maybe the different layers thing is a good idea.
Have you ever thought of doing cupcakes instead of cake? That way you could have a few different flavors and your guests could chose. Just a thought. I had a cupcake tower and everyone loved it.
But if thats not something you wanna do, I would definitely do a layer thing. I know a few people who HATE coconut and you dont want those people to be left out ya know?

Funny that you bring this up because I never really thought of it either. We are doing cakes as centerpieces with a variety of flavors, but one is going to be strawberry...which I guess is more of a summer flavor. Honestly, I would say if you like it go with it....but maybe just that one layer..because not everyone enjoys coconut. I also really like the cupcake idea from PP though too!
I personally would love coconut... or pumpkin... or any kind of cake. Your mom should cool it a bit... it's just cake.

My thoughts exactly! Especially because if I had it my way, we would skip the cake and have more appetizers or something. I would rather eat stuffed mushrooms than cake any day.
