Op·u·lent: Characterized by rich abundance

Today Eric and I decided on a bakery for our wedding cakes! Eric has been unable to accompany me to any of the tastings thus far, but he was able to make it to this one and it ended up being the most important! We chose Opulent Cakes of Colleyville for our cakes, and I feel so good about this decision!! Donna, the owner, is so hospitable and her designs are beautiful!! We taste tested 6 different flavors and we decided on Amaretto Liqueur (the best I've ever had) with 3 layers of butter cream filling for the bottom 2 layers of the bride's cake, and Chocolate Liqueur with 2 layers of caramel filling and one layer of chocolate mousse filling for the groom's cake and the top 2 layers of the bride's cake.
This is what the bride's cake should look like (I photo shopped the original photo to look lavender). It will also have a crystal monogram cake topper.
Groom's cake: The TCU Stadium!!






We liked these the least (which is still very good! haha)

These two were good... but not the winner.

The winners!!! SOOO amazingly yummy!!!

The end!
