    3 tier + full sheet. We're also having a "Pan Dulce" (Mexican sweet bread) bar. 200 guests.
    Ignore my horrible Photoshoping skills haha. But I'm wanting something similar to this:

    We will be having cupcakes no tiers. Maybe a small round cake just for the cutting part.

    We’re having a smaller wedding of only about 60 people. So just having one tier cake. Then several small mini pies the caterer is making. Think there will be about two mini pies per person.

    Barely 2 and we will serve cupcakes, pastries, tarts, scones, and brownies! The deserts must fit the tea party after all.

    You could always have a small cake for the cutting and then a dessert bar with the other sweet treats!

    Three tiers for ours! The top tier will be our cake, the middle tier will be made of cupcakes, and the bottom tier will be actual cake. I love the idea of having cupcakes (especially with the 6 or 7 children who will be present), and he and I just love cupcakes in general! Smiley smile

    We have 2 largers tiers and it should be more than enough slices. I know that not every guest will have a slice (especially since we have some other desserts as well). But I’ll probably have 3-4 slices! Haha! I LOVVVVVEEE cake and all desserts. I’m saving room for that!

    I actually have different members of my bridal party who are going to help make cupcakes. I think we're planning on one cupcake per person.

    Thank you Kelly! The cupcakes will be all different flavors such as vanilla, chocolate, banana, red velvet. And each different flavor will also be offered with a different variety of fillings as well!

    My wedding cake is just a 6 inches cake for FH and I only. We’re doing cupcakes, and a dessert table as well as a candy buffet for everyone else
