Loving the cows. And the pugs. And everything else on this post! Sharyn, you never cease to amaze me.
Congratulations, Savannah and Zach!
I think in the future we need to see their wedding cake :-)
Sound of Music, Monty Python, Steampunk, Bambi AND a Wedding Proposal. Sunday Extra Sweets!
YES!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Sweets to the sweetest!
A century of joy to
Zach and Savannah.
Congrats (or should I say 'Congradulatitions'?) to Zach and Savannah!
Love the Spamalot cake! Trojan rabbit, vorpal bunny and Holy Handgrenade of Antioch, oh my!
Yay Zach and Savannah!! Congrats to the happy couple!
She said yes!
HOORAY! Mazel Tov to Zack ad Savannah - they are off to a spectacular start!
Also, fantastic rhyming-with-the-music-scheme, especially the line about the owl cake. =)
Congratulations Zach and Savannah!
Congratulations Zach and Savannah! Got me and my hubby teary-eyed!
Congratulations Zach and Savannah! A proposal in cake?!? Kinda makes me wish I wasn't already married!
Love these cakes! I was overcome by the awesome of the Monty Python Cake (WANTS!!!) then scrolled down to see that unbearably amazing dragon. Once I find my jaw where it fell on the floor, I'm going to start saving to get one of those. And a big ol' display case so I can just look at it forever.
Congratulations to Savannah and Zach!! May you have many Sunday Sweets together! :-)
Say yes Savannah! Great post as usual!
Bambi cake is sooooo cute! But I'd rather cut into one of those baby cakes. What heartless person would cut into Bambi.
Best wishes Zach & Savannah! Hope your wedding cake is as beautiful as this one!
And "yarn-addled kittens" for the win!
Woohoo!! Great day to sing along and congrats to Savannah and Zach!
Yay Savannah and Zach! :) And awesome cakes!
Aww! Congratulations Savannah and Zach! It was a very sweet post today! Thank's Jen and John!
ok - seriously freaking out here... because I know a Savannah who is dating a Zach! gulp!
congratulations Savannah and Zach! Wishing you much love and happiness
AAHHHHH!! Congratulations, Zach and Savannah!!!
i'm impressed tht zach knows how to spell.
Congrats! Love and good blessings and luck and all sorts of wonderful good things for your marriage.
Awww! Yay Zach & Savannah! Congrats!
Congrats to Zach and Savannah! May your wedding cake and marriage be the stuff of Sunday Sweets forever - no wrecks!
(although it could be neat to tie a bunch of naked baby carrot jockeys to the back of your getaway car, you know, instead of tin cans…)
Great job, Sharyn!
I want the cows cake…
Best Sunday Sweets ever! Congratulations to Zach and Savanna!
Congrats to Zach and Savannah! (And extra kudos to Zach for his creative proposal!)
I am Zach's proud aunt. We are thrilled for Zach and Savannah! What a sweet proposal--and they are indeed a warm, loving, and very sweet couple.
Congrats to the happy couple!
I LOVE THE HOLY GRAIL CAKE!!!!!
Congrats, Zach and Savannah!!
I wonder how many Zachs with girlfriends named Savannah are feeling super awkward now!
Nice, Holy Grail cake, but where are the shrubberies?
These Sunday Sweets are AWESOME (my personal fav is the one by Pink Cake box - with the white frosted tiers and green ribbons and GLORIOUS flowers).
Congrats to Zach and Savannah. How very cool! Happy long life and may your wedding cake NOT be a wreck.
May be best post ever!!!!
I would have given anything to see her face when she saw that cake and it sank in..... HAPPY TEARS!
It's been said, but bears repeating: Best. Sunday. Sweets. EVER!!!
Congrats to Zach & Savannah! I confess that I am jealous. I've always wanted my hubby to do something big like that...but he's a shy guy so that's a no-go. He's good, though, so it's a fair trade. :-) After I read the column, I had The Daughter read it and she instantly burst into song & sang Sharyn's sweet parody while reading the post. But what really got me laughing was The Son, who launched into the Minecraft parody of My Favorite Things when he heard his sister singing! {giggle}
@Interrobang - WE KNOW. BEEN THERE, DONE THAT. And I still love it and the dragon cake! Will take one of each, OK? Deliver them to the Bunker ASAP.
Now, Craig, we need to redecorate the Bunker again! The left side, with the gym & den, etc. will be the Bachelor party and the right side with the Spa will be the site of the Bridal Shower/Bachelorette party. If Zach & Savannah desire, perhaps Theardare will permit the use of his very palatial Atrium for the wedding ceremony and/or reception. Please have Eddie 2.0 decorate accordingly. Thank you!
One last note - Zach, *no* cage fighting during the Bachelor party! You will not look handsome or cute going down the aisle with a black eye on your face. Feel free to *watch* all the WWF matches, etc. in the den on the super-colossal-ultimate HDTV. I'm sure Theardare won't mind a bit.
Even my hubby liked the Grail cake!! Congrats Zach and Savannah!
I LOVED the Monty Python Cake!!!!!!!!!!
And the engagement was very unique! Congrats!!
I would be extremely embarrassed to be a good cake artist and have my cakes featured on here. I don't understand it. Who would want their stuff featured on 'Cake Wrecks?' I think you should make another blog or something if you want to feature good cakes, because it's sort of a disgrace to people.
[Editor's note- That's true any other day of the week. But Sundays are reserved for the best of the best cakes out there and from what I've heard from the many kind emails we've received, it's considered an honor to be featured here. I'm sorry you don't understand. Have a pleasant night! -john]
A guy who proposes via cake is a keeper! ;) Congrats to Savannah and Zach!
Applause! Much applause!
Awww - we have been watching all day for an update!! Yeah Zach and Savannah!! Awesome!
Finally, FINALLY, someone notices Rogers and Hammerstein's AWESOMENESS.
Congratulations to the happy couple!! What a great way to propose!!! New memories for CakeWrecks. We'll need update cake pictures in the future.
And I'm agog and in wow at that Dragon cake. Too pretty to eat!!
Wow! I am so NOT a teary-eyed romantic (unless it's Bogie standing there when the bimbo walks away at the end of "Casablanca") but, yup, I was all teary when I saw that engagement "psst!" Lovely photo of the happy couple, too! :D
Savannah and Zach MUST have a wrecky wedding cake! Be vague when ordering but iinsist it must have 'sprinkles' on it.
By the way in the UK we call sprinkles 'hundreds and thousands' I'd like to see what a wrecker would do with that!
Congrats!! What fun, a Cake Wrecks proposal!! Now, be sure the wedding cake is a Sunday Sweet not a wreckerator classis!
Awwwwww!! I'm all misty over here.
That proposal was sweeter than anything I came across all Valentines Day... Awww. <3 Cake Wrecks and this just warmed my heart even more!!
Yeah! Congrats and many happy years to come. Now, go find a lot of wrecks on your hunt for the perfect wedding cake. Just be sure to share all the wrecks and the perfect cake with us, please!
The dragon is AMAZING! Wow!
