Cake stand...is it too much?

I like sparkly things...bling out the E :-D

 

Just try to keep the cake simple, like everyone else said.

I am all about the bling!

SO - last night me and the kids went over to FI's grandmothers house. She asked me to find a knife and cake server and to let her know and she would buy it for us. Well before I could get a chance to tell her, she tells me that she already picked one out and was just waiting to take it to get engraved.

 

I was seceretly scared that she bought something I wouldn't like but I figured that she bought it with love and I would just be happy with whatever she chose. Well, we're sitting there talking about the wedding and she brings out this black velvet box and this is what was in it......

OMG - It's the cake knife and server and it is absolutely beautiful! Totally something I would have chosen AND.....what does it have on it SOME BLING!!

 

It is so much prettier in person. Actualy the one she showed me seemed a little more ornate than this one. But it is very similar. Absolutely beautiful and I was SO happy!

 

So now - of course I need to add the bling to the E! So last night FI comes home and I told him how beautiful the set was and I said to him, we need to try to match up the E to the set by adding a little bit of swarovski crystals on it.

 

He said - "Yeah that's cool. I told you my grandmother has good taste".

 

HA HA HA HA HA!!!

Awesome. I think the E will look great with some bling.

I think it's nice! And I agree with all the previous people to keep the cake simple (sounds like you are with the blue ribbon) and bling out the E. I love the cake topper monograms look with sparkle.
