OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread

Hi all,

I have had the opportunity to meet a handful of LIW South Asian (Indian) brides as well as non-Indians marrying Indians through LIW.

Everyone can participate in the thread but some of us felt it would be helpful to share information to fellow Indian (or Desi) brides out there.

If you all are for it, we can post info that will help each other on it. Like DJs, makeup artists, clothing resources, etc etc.

Take care!

Re: OFFICIAL Indian 'Desi' Wedding Thread

i can't make a decision on the cake.. aaah.. did anyone else have the same issues?

my RH and caterer are not providing the cake.. so it's all on us.. which means i need make a decision and i am soooooooooooo indecisive..

and also.. anyone considering to freeze the top tier?

Our RH is supplying the cake, I just have to design it. Have you picked a bakery? Do you have a favorite that would be able to make the cake for you?

IMO, Buttercookie is a really good bakery on Jericho Tpke, across from Floral Terrace...and I know floral terrace uses them for their wedding cakes. Maybe try them?

I'm not sure if we'll freeze the top layer or get a separate, smaller cake made to freeze.
