For my wedding I used a cake and server set that my mother used at her wedding nearly 30 years earlier. My mother and father's name and the date of the wedding was engraved on the cake server. My two aunts used the same serving set and added their names. Then it was my turn, followed by my brother. It is beautiful to see a classic cake server set that is adorned with the names of a loving family. The beauty of the serving set and the personalizatoin is wonderful, but the tradition is what holds the most meaning because it represents a moment in time. You can start this tradition for a bride and she'll be so excited! For just over $60.00 you can give a personal gift that is the beginning of a cherished tradition. You can give a $50.00 crock-pot to a co-worker or a relative you see once a year, but for brides who are family or are dear friends go with the cake serving set. Be sure to use a conservative size font and placement of the names and date on the cake server because the hope is that many more couples will be able to add their name to the server and eventually the trowel.
Gift: Vera Wang Love Knots Cake Serving Set.
Budget: Sold online at Exclusively Weddings for $56.00 for the set. It's another $8.00 for the engraving of the names and dates.
