I met with a bride and groom about their wedding cake.

The bride did all of the talking.  The groom just sat there like a lost puppy dog. He looked like he really wanted to interject, but he didn't.  Finally I asked him what he thought about the cake flavor and what styles he liked etc... The bride shot back at me " I  AM PAYING FOR THIS CAKE, I DECIDE WHAT IT'S GOING TO BE" I sat there in total shock and total silence for what seemed like an eternity.  Finally the groom said " the NEXT time I get married I'M paying for the cake" I think at that point my guts ripped in half...I wanted to tell the groom to run for the hills and never look back. When I arrived at the wedding to set up the cake, the father of the bride came over to the table and said " THIS is the cake?"- in a VERY derogatory tone.(.he didn't even introduce himself). I thought to myself "like father like daughter" and kept decorating. Several weeks later I received a call from the bride saying that I left the strawberries off the top layer of cake and that her father was a lawyer ( there's a big surprise! )she wanted her money back or she would sue me. I sent her a refund for the strawberries I left off the cake- probably three strawberries TOTAL  and told her that she could take me to small claims court. I never heard back form them because of course, they knew they had no case. I heard from the wedding coordinator that she was divorced in less than two months ( another BIG surprise!). Those were the worst clients I ever had. I really hope the groom re-married a NICE girl! I think he finally got the picture!
