With the popularity of shows such as Cake Boss and Ace of Cakes, customized cakes are showing up at many weddings in the form of groom's cakes. Your traditional wedding cake, I think can also be customized to fit any theme (and they've come SUCH a long way), but some people understandably like to stay with tradition and get a three or four tiered cake and feed each other leaving the guests in suspense of cake smashing (which I feel is on its way out...let's face it, having beautiful make-up professionaly done is not going to be ruined by buttercream icing!). Since the bride gets to choose so many details regarding "her" big day, it's nice to throw a little touch of something in to the mix that represents the groom. Kristin chose to have a cake made in to a tackle box for her hubby-to-be whose main hobby is fishing. It definitely becomes a conversation piece and is something memorable to do. The options and ideas are endless. You can have a groom cake themed according to your hubby's occupation, favorite sports team, favorite hobby, favorite band, etc. Since the cake is generally small enough that it will feed about 25ppl (unless you order something bigger), you can choose to share it with just the bridal party or have the cake sliced small and offer it out to guests who would like to try it.
