    Gotta agree with boogieboo...I'd want to keep it away from nasty sharp knifey things!
    I'm going to take the pics of the animal ones and also this pic I found to a local cake place. Ok the second one isn't as nice as the one spoonymoose found but I do have a budget to think about! I'm going to ask if they could do something like them and ask how much...I am not going to mention the W word as that doubles the price.
    At the higher prices they are it was tempting to think go for it at the day only and get a plain cake for the evening but I really want a zooey thing in the evening so will need more cakes (45 daytime, 100 evening). I'd only planned for a Tesco or M&S cake that I was going to put ribbons on...now if I don't get animals I will cry. Darn you spoonymoose showing me such lovely things!!!

    Sorry ellay! I couldn't look at it and leave it tho, especially as it made me think of your wedding! ;)

    If you find any websites of unusual cakes pass 'em my way (regardless of how non-MS they may be... Ideas are something we can take with us to our cake maker!)

    Oooh, have just found this too for you (quite a cool take on a traditional wedding cake :))

    Also found some animal cake tins (if you could get someone else to make the mini cakes for you...

    OMG I'm going to have to lock myself away from this PC at this rate...those cakes are gorgeous. Though I think they could do some serious damage to budget and diet...I'm getting hungry just now looking at them! I think that even if I cant get to a full animal cake I at least need some animal toppers :)

    Wow, I love them all!

    Thinking to myself maybe I should have a theme to my wedding after all, I want one of these cakes!

    But don't think I could change everything in less than 2 weeks even if I could afford to! :rotfl:
