You won’t believe what happened at a wedding last night

Blush (no I’m not the guest in question)

Evening guests turned up at 7pm. Around 8pm bride and groom decided to cut the cake. Only to find cake had already been cut by a hungry guest ShockShockShock

Cake in question was a three tiered cake made of different cheeses. Surrounded by grapes and crackers/biscuits. No little bride and groom on top.

An absolute war broke out about it. Half the people saying well, how were they supposed to know it was the cake, other half saying it was pretty obvious.

Cake was in a separate room to the bar and dance floor. Bride in tears (or tiers boom boom).

Around three or four people had taken some of the cake by the time they realised!

The bride was unreasonable. You cannot leave cheese unattended. Except goat’s cheese according to this week’s other cheese thread! Just get an actual cake and stop being try-hard.

It was exactly like that Smeaton one on the link. But lots of draped grapes over the top.

Quite a few chunks missing by the time it got to the photo op!

Fuck me that sounds delicious. I'd have tucked in if I'd found it.

Why was the bride crying? Surely "now I don't have to have another fucking photo taken of me cutting a fucking cake" is a cause for celebration?

At least this was a wedding cake that people actually enjoyed. Most of them are dry, tasteless horrors.

This is pretty funny!
It’s jot the person’s fault. I’m not sure I’d have realised it wasn’t just pretty cheese and biscuits.

At our wedding, the waitress knocked the cake table and the top tier (that we were going to save for first child’s christening cake) fell off and smashed onto the floor.

Everybody stared at me thinking I was going to cry but I burst out laughing!

Hard cheese.

*Shouldn't have left the cake unsupervised' made me laugh Grin

I'm imagining the guest like Ross in Friends when he cut and ate a slice of the going away cake for the caretaker he refused to chip in for. Did the guest have cheese all over their face?!
