I bought some cheap veils on eBay and decorated them. I don’t really like how they came out...I think they might be a little too much. Maybe I need to be a little less heavy handed with the Mica...

Sooooo, after the wedding I simply placed the top tier of our wedding cake into the freezer in a cardboard cake box. Didn’t wrap it or anything, didn’t know I was supposed to. Is it worth even...
