- we do letters/love letters on cake table - with 1 month away i dont know if i want to be bothered wiht it
- picture/table numbers - i dont know if i want to do it, it seems so time consuming & im thinking it might be too much...

Re: is anyone not doing these:

I didn't have a cake topper or 'I do' letters....I did make my table numbers though. I wanted my birdies to be there in spirit Honestly, they didn't take all that much time, they were probably my easiest and cheapest DIY.

PS didn't do a slipper basket either.

Re: is anyone not doing these:

i dont think we are going to do anything with our cake....no flowers, no monogram - maybe we'll get some crystal snowflakes or something along those lines to put on it but i havent seen anything that i really like...

we are doing table #'s - we are going to use pictures of our dog

im doing programs but i dont think im going to do any menus - if i did do menus i would do the circle ones - i LOVE those!

you arent being lazy - i bet nobody even appreciates or notices half the things we do! hopefully our guests will be to busy having a good time to notice all the small details....

I was going to do some of those things but as it gets closer i just don't think i'll have the time.
Definitely not doing the 'we do' letters or slipper/bathroom baskets. If i have the time, maybe table numbers.

Re: is anyone not doing these:

I'm not doing a cake topper either. I don't see anything that I have to have so I'm not going to bother. I was debating the mamogram letters but I have to run that by my FH. My cake designer doesn't like cake toppers which made me feel better when I wasn't going to put one on.

Re: is anyone not doing these:

I completely understand where your coming from. I'm feeling a bit lazy too.
I am doing a cake topper. I do not know about the table numbers. I feel like its an added expense that no one will notice but me and my mom.

As far as the 'we do' letters go, I never wanted to do them. No offense to anyone who likes that idea, it was just never my thing. Thought it was a bit cheesy. But that's just me.

Don't stress yourself out over these things... honestly most people won't even notice.

with that said... FH and I aren't doing the We Do letters since there isn't room on our table for them. We're putting real flowers on our cake top. FH like to keep things simple. Also we're doing just plain table numbers, no pictures, it can add a nice touch, but not worth all the trouble.

no cake topper for us. Just orchids down the sides

No cake topper for me. Just flowers on top, but i am doing table numbers. I think it's a nice touch. But I am going to do them now cause I agree when it gets closer you won't want to be bothered. If you don't want to do it and hte place gives numbers just use theirs? Its up to you!

so far I'm totally with you except for the table numbers (only because a very talented friend is doing them for me). I am not doing any of the other things you mentioned.

Your wedding is soo close. Amazing!

You are not lazy at all---it just gets to be too much
I am just having flowers on the cake, no slipper basket, not sure about the letters, and if I don't have the time to do the table number's, I won't be uspet.

are you doing the pictures?



i think thats what i am going to do for the table numbers. I have to meet with my DOC soon in person, and they have laurie who is a former LIW bride on their design team. Not sure if she can do them for me since i dont have the full wedding planning package so i have to find out. If not i guess ill do it myself since it should be pretty easy

Re: is anyone not doing these:

IF your cake is ornate you don't need a topper. The flowers on top is a lovely idea

Table numbers is really your call. As long as tables show some type of numbering you should be fine. Most RHs offer standard numbers they could provide you.
Don't stress over the little things
