This was the second wedding cake I had ever made. I adjusted the colors and flowers to match the wedding flowers and colors. I froze the bottom layer after I baked it so that it would be easier to assemble because of the size. Once I had the bottom layer iced and together, I let it thaw before completing the decrating. The instructions were very easy to follow. It was such a big cake that we needed a ladder to assemble the tiers at the reception. It was a very beautiful cake.
