The others -- # 2 and and 4 in particular -- don't look like cake to me; they sort of look like a candle or like plastic; they're not very inviting to eat. I struggled with the cake decision too, but it was more of a budget thing for me and I think it was rooted in the cake not being a high priority for me. So, we opted for a small, heart-shaped cake (FI's idea) and accompanying cupcakes in all different flavors.

The last cake reminds me of one I just saw at a ;ocal baker here in Philadelphia and I was in love with it the moment I saw it! These are all beautiful cakes. Good luck choosing!

So of course I vote for #1, except maybe I don't because I kind of want #1 for myself. So maybe you should go with #3 which is still beautiful. So let's do #1 for me, and #3 for you.

I don't care for #1 or #5, but I like clean, modern looking cakes, so it's just personal opinion. I would go with #1 if it were me, but I do love the look of #4. My favorites are #2, 3, and 4.

I like it when you can tell that a cake is frosted in something edible - fondant looks so plastic. A combo of the first and last.

April Reed's designs are gorgeous. You could add a bow and a brooch instead of the red flower. Number 2! April Reed’s designs are gorgeous.
