Okay, so I found a place that will do a grooms cake for me around $200. Only problem is that they charge a $100 delivery charge!!! The place is in Suffolk and my wedding is in Nassau. Do you think I should suck it up and make it a suprise for FH and pay the fee. OR try to go the day b4 and then go to my RH to drop it off (a day b4 the wedding). I just dont want to be running around getting a cake the day b4 the wedding... but $100 is A LOT of money just for a delivery. Ahhhh what do I do ladies??

I am picking mine up the day of the RD and dropping it off at the restaurant.. why not just have a family member or friend pick it up for you? $100 is alot for a delivery fee...

I agree, try to have a friend pick it up for you. I also think $100 is alot but I would pay it if there was nobody else who could pick it up. Its better than having to go yourself

Yea, I am really thinking about it LOL!!! I feel like its a lot to ask a family member to do it ... so whats why Im thinking of doing it myself the day b4 OR just shelling out the $100 so I dont have to worry about it. Tough decision....

i would see what your MOH is up to the day before or a family member - how far is your RH that you need to have it driven out to? Nancy is a doll at Audrey's isnt she?

Yea Im going to call my sister and see if she can do it the day before.... if not, I think Im just going to suck it up and have it delivered. I told FH that I was whipping up a suprise for him at the RH and he goes 'Your taking a stripper pole class?' LOL!!!!!! But, he got excited about a suprise being set up for him.... I really want to see the look on his face when he sees the cake! Nancy is really sweet!!!! She has already gone back and forth with me in emails like 4 times today lol!!!

Oops I think I misunderstood.... she just wrote an email saying that it's just $215 for the xbox. Hmmmm I wonder how much more it would be with the fillings and whatnot......

Oh yayyyyyyy I know FH loves that!!! What would go good with canoli filling? Chocolate pudding? I know FH likes that too... but I dont know if they will go well together. I wrote her back again and told her that you referred me I also asked what her Sun and Monday hrs were- bc I would love to go there and take a look.
