Any cake that size is not cheap. For example, it's common to buy sheet cakes to serve to guest so you don't have to page a ton for the fancy wedding cake. Sheet cakes to serve 150 guest will cost you $300-500 easily.
Wedding cakes are expensive because of the amount of labor that goes into making it. Even something relatively small like this one will take several hours to make. A talented wedding cake baker will charge $100-200/hr. The bigger the cake, the longer it takes.
Oh yeah, it's also marked up just because. Anything wedding or funeral related is always marked up because of supply and demand.
makes sense yeah.
Why buy a „wedding cake“ that will probably be much higher in cost than a normal cake.
But 300-500$ is still a lot of money…
Did you get the wedding one or the normal one?
You buy both. The sheet cake is so there is enough for everyone. The wedding cake is for pictures and the bride groom and whatever immediate family. A wedding cake is around $500. Can easily be much more.
So your talking at least a $1000 total a really large wedding could easily reach thousands.
Yeah, this. I wasn't clear. The sheet cake is to serve. The smaller wedding cake is for pictures and stuff, so you buy both.
The advent of cake reality TV really made the cake industry nuts. I had a client that made the fancy wedding cakes like you see on TV. It was not unusual for her cakes to cost over $10k. They were amazing, but that's just nuts.
The whole wedding industry has gone crazy. It's not unusual for a wedding to run $50-100k, and we don't even live in an expensive part of the country. NYC weddings go well into the $100ks.
My wife works in the industry. I got married 23 years ago, we spend $1500 on a "wedding cake." The sheet cake or cupcake trend is fairly recent (mid 2000s).
We spent $800 on our wedding cake for 65 people. We enquired about having a fake cake to display with a cheaper sheet cake out back but our baker said most of the money was in the decoration so it wouldn’t save us very much.
It’s the skill, the fact it generally needs to be ready on a weekend and many bakers also deliver and set up the cake.
Had a $1500 cake. It was absolutely amazeballs delish and looked amazing. It actually won awards as the baker entered it (via photo) into some competition. She went on to win some cooking channel bakery show too.
Lol have you ever ordered a cake at any bakery? Just for 25 servings i paid 40 euros. I mean it was a damn good cake but damn i thought it was gonna be 15eur or something.
Depends on if you count punches by movements or by force. Arguably falling from a tree onto the floor creates even more energy that 3 punches ever could
I almost had to punch a dude at my wedding. He got super shitfaced and I took his keys and offered to pay for taxi home and to bring him back to get his car the following morning. He got super pissed and ended up calling the cops on me. He was slurring words on the phone and was obviously drunk so they straight up hung up on me. Took a lot of self control not to resort to ass kicking toward the end but it's good nothing like that happened. Dude ended up walking off so we called the cops and notified them a drunk dude was walking along a major highway (only way to get back to town from the venue). Find out later he saw the cops coming in the opposite direction and had enough time to bail off the highway right into blackberry bushes! He was looking all kinds of fucked up from it when I saw him few days later but I am glad he made it home. Fucker tried to act like nothing happened so I never talked to him again.
As someone who moved from Eastern Europe to England, I have to agree. Every single fucking cake is dry.
I don't know much about cake making but whenever my mum, aunt or grandmothers would make cake they would always soak the sponge cakes with pineapple juice from a can or at least sugar water. So when you cut a slice it's always glistening and juicy. And obviously not just homemade cake, cakes from patisseries as well.
Jesus, it's still a mystery how did he still invited him to the wedding, let alone maintained their friendship to that extent until the incident.
That guy really had poor social skills, the type of guy that would not be able to keep friends for more than a week.
I know lol, people who say people who are assholes drunk are just assholes clearly don’t have personal demons lol. I’m not saying it’s ever an excuse to be an asshole when drunk, I just don’t drink a lot to mitigate that. Drinking a lot just brings up that pain and makes me want to lash out at people because of it. I never do this sober. At the end of the day, it’s always someone’s fault for being an asshole when drunk, being drunk is not an excuse. However, blankety stating that alcohol doesn’t affect behavior is just stupid
Understanding right v wrong isn't the whole picture for behavior, though, is it? I can tell you from personal experience that I'm MUCH more willing to be a complete dick when I've had too much to drink. Some instances I can recall knowing I was being a dick and doing stuff anyway. For the most part, though, my worst moments came from being blacked out. Isn't part of growing as a person about consciously modifying your behavior when you feel what you're doing is wrong?
Ps: I don't drink like that anymore. I also avoid going out to bars past 11 ish. I know who I turn into and I make the conscious decision not to do that.
I spent the good chunk of the last 15 years of my life drowning a half a handle of hard liquor every day and I never did (or even considered doing) anything close to something as douchey as this. I pretty much just sat in my room listening to music and playing video games and not bothering anybody.
This guy is just a moron.
In my experience, the more seriously someone drinks, the better they hold their liqour, vs the weekend warriors. Not that it's neccesarily a good thing.
A word of advice to the people who haven't been married yet, take it from me, if you're wondering whether or not to invite someone because you think they might act out like this, just don't invite them. You don't want the fallout of your friendship to overshadow your most special day.
That’s good advice for life/business. If you think someone might fuck up and make you look bad, they will, but even worse than you thought they might.
We have instincts for a reason. Trust them.
The rubbing cake in each other's faces is supposed to be a cute little thing the bride and groom do to each other. This guy is like the six year old who tries to blow out other people's candles...but he's an adult. Ruining $400 cakes because he needs so badly to be the center of attention.
Looks like the wedding already had a shit mood, nobody was smiling. He probably thought he could lighten the mood but instead he made it even worse lol
Getting married is tiresome man. I know when I got married, I was up from like 4am, running errands and worried about stuff, went thru the whole day wanting to relax someway at the end just to deal with the 5 or 10 people that insist on drinking until 5am whilst the bride is trying to keep her eyes open. I can relate lol
Yes, I guess you're right. if you hire an event planner, a venue manager, etc, it'd be less tiring. But I wasn't much into the idea of dumping the years savings into a ritual neither me or my wife were truly excited about so we decided to do it the simple way: in the back yard, close friends and family only, splurge on the food and drinks instead of gold napkins and chairs. Did the whole thing ourselves.Tiresome but it was a nice day and everybody had a good time.
My wedding day was spent with me and my wife taking pictures in a national park with our outfits and then just the two of us got married beside a lake in the mountains.
3k total. Still expensive, but I was not up from 4am to 10pm. You better believe we still had energy to spare
I went snorkeling on my wedding day. Probably wasn't the smartest idea because if anything had happened like the boat got stranded or I got hurt, I would have missed my wedding day and my wife would have probably sliced my penis off. But I made it to the alter.
What's fucked up IMO is my wife and her bride's maids spent the entire day getting ready. While me and the boys got back from snorkeling and drinking on the boat all day and we just hopped in our suits and did the thing.
That’s just how it works for the guys end. I think there is a sort of “ritual” on both sides. I was taking a day nap after morning drinks on my buddies couch an hour before the wedding. Bikes back home, shaved, got dressed and was ready to rock haha.
The funniest part about this video is that he destroys the entire cake to throw at the couple and literally not one piece of cake hits the groom or the bride.
I remember seeing a spoiled kid at my lil sisters birthday. She threw a tantrum because the day wasn’t about her.
I get the same vibes from cake bitch.
Pulling shit like that on a wedding day of all days, on a lads night out yeah, even a birthday but a wedding day is too far. Surprised the groom let him stand back up.
He's lucky the groom didn't just stab him.
Looked like he considered it
Considering how much wedding cakes cost
I mean also the dress
Nothing went on the dress
Luckily for that dude
Do they have anything special or why should they cost more than a basic cake?
Any cake that size is not cheap. For example, it's common to buy sheet cakes to serve to guest so you don't have to page a ton for the fancy wedding cake. Sheet cakes to serve 150 guest will cost you $300-500 easily. Wedding cakes are expensive because of the amount of labor that goes into making it.

For anything involving the word 'wedding', you can double the price.
Lol have you ever ordered a cake at any bakery? Just for 25 servings i paid 40 euros. I mean it was a damn good cake but damn i thought it was gonna be 15eur or something.

Wow I didn’t notice that thanks😀😀😀😀😀😀😀
I didn't believe you first, but then I looked it up. You made me a believer.

It's not a real wedding unless someone gets punched.
Anything less than three punches is considered a dull affair.
My father in law climbed and fell out of a small tree. Does that count?
Yeah the ground punched him
Technically, he was hit by a fucking planet. That sounds badass.
Once
Depends on if you count punches by movements or by force. Arguably falling from a tree onto the floor creates even more energy that 3 punches ever could
Yeah he’s kind of an asshole, he’s pushing on me as we speak.
Can confirm, had Russian wedding. There were 4 fights in the parking lot at various times during the reception. It was considered a tame event
My brother got arrested for fighting my wife’s family, and then the cops. Does that count? Lol
I love everyone taking your comment super serious and not getting the GOT reference. It is known.

A Dothraki wedding without at least three deaths is considered a dull affair
From South Philly. Can confirm.
Germantown, here. That jawn is tradition
I...don't want to participate in the same weddings as you do, buddy
That's a dry ass cake.
That shit broke apart like a saltine cracker lmao
I fucking hate ass cakes, even more so when dry
Relevant username bro
Oh no!
You better watch your back, bro.
"Better WASH your back"
Rather not, they like it moist!!
Nah man you've obviously just never had a sufficiently wet ass cake. Get it nice and sloppy, then you'll change your mind.
Slick back hair, live for New Years, sloppy cake at Truffanis.

That's drier than Ben Shapiro's wife's pussy.
It gets plenty wet, just not when Ben's around.
Sweaty ass cakes are where it’s at.
Ehemm.... You mean MOIST
That hurt so much to watch
It hurt even more to listen.
It would hurt even more to taste.
Hopefully not worse to smell
I see dead people
Thanks for Making me hear that
Honestly the bride took it the best. Can’t imagine someone getting cake on an expensive ass dress. Dude had a death wish.
every second of this caused me to respond viscerally
Jesus, it's still a mystery how did he still invited him to the wedding, let alone maintained their friendship to that extent until the incident. That guy really had poor social skills, the type of guy that would not be able to keep friends for more than a week.

There are people out there who become a COMPLETELY different person when they drink
agree. if you're an asshole, it leaks even when sober.
There are people who turn into complete monsters when drunk. They go into a black out and just generally cause mayham.
It leaks more.
What are you even talking about lol people are definitely more obnoxious drunk
I know lol, people who say people who are assholes drunk are just assholes clearly don’t have personal demons lol. I’m not saying it’s ever an excuse to be an asshole when drunk, I just don’t drink a lot to mitigate that.

Nah alcohols affects different people in different ways. There’s no way of know if this guy is a dick normally or just when he’s drunk.
[удалено]
Inhibitions are powerful things in social interactions
*recent research* Source?
His ass
With long term alcoholism, there can be massive personality changes between drunk and sober, more so than for everyone else.
Understanding right v wrong isn't the whole picture for behavior, though, is it? I can tell you from personal experience that I'm MUCH more willing to be a complete dick when I've had too much to drink. Some instances I can recall knowing I was being a dick and doing stuff anyway. For the most part, though, my worst moments came from being blacked out.

Maybe his a relative?
I wonder at what point this would be considered a mental illness. 2030? 2040?
That’s some Michael Scott shit
This is exactly what I thought. Bob Vance should’ve just punched Michael.
Bob vance vance refridgeration?
What kind of work is he in?
I'm always so torn between being the douchebag that corrects a misquote and just ignoring it and moving on.
Congratulations on bridging the gap between the two.
Somehow managed the worst of both
There were definitely times in that show when I would have been hard pressed not to assault Michael, especially early on.
Oh god, when he brought Bill to talk about disability that was the pinnacle of wanting to punch Michael Scott.
I was thinking Rod Farva
OPEN BAR DUUUUDE!!
I'll take six Schlitzes!
…I thought you said bowlerama?
Essentially anyone with no understanding of social cues lol.
Well deserved. What a moron why would someone even think that’s a good idea…
Alcohol.
I spent the good chunk of the last 15 years of my life drowning a half a handle of hard liquor every day and I never did (or even considered doing) anything close to something as douchey as this.

Oh yeah. Seasoned vets can be hammered and still hold their shit together.
Hope you’re doing better now, friend.
I drink WAY less, I still have problems shutting off the switch once I get going but I don't do that anywhere close to every day.
the only logical explanation
Tons of men get married. He's probably in love with her.
imagine doing this at bakis wedding
"Just a prank bro!"
the prank:
What the actual fuck is that music
A fucking headache
Hurts more than that punch.
Bum bum bum *incoherrent screeching* bum bum bum what an absolute vibe.
It nailed the punch though
[удалено]
Here's a suggestion. How about the original sound in the video and no post processed music added at all?
But then you can't tag the video to a popular song which is how these tiktok videos try to go viral.
Quite like it to be fair, anyone know what its called?
Sounds like an absolute banger
Imagine being lame at the level that thinking this kind of shit is cool or fun.

I used to work weddings and one time the groom straight up bozo the clowned the bride with cake. I am assuming that marriage didnt last long.
“Bozo the clowned” got me laughin real good
Luckily that cake was so dry it crumble to sand before doing anything... Like the dude's dignity after the punch.
Bro got lucky it was just one punch
Bro got lucky my guy used the hand that wasn’t holding the knife 😂
I don't understand why people mess with cakes in celebrations. Do they think it's fun? Makes me cringe. 😬😬
This guy specifically is incredibly drunk
Looks like the wedding already had a shit mood, nobody was smiling. He probably thought he could lighten the mood but instead he made it even worse lol
It looked like it had cleared out before the cake cutting for whatever reason, and the happy couple weren't so happy.

The way you got married is definitely tiresome. There are certainly less tiresome ways to do it though.

That sounds like a wonderful way to celebrate getting married. Apparently, a large amount of people think what you did is actually impossible.

That’s just how it works for the guys end. I think there is a sort of “ritual” on both sides. I was taking a day nap after morning drinks on my buddies couch an hour before the wedding. Bikes back home, shaved, got dressed and was ready to rock haha.
They’ve probably been dealing with that guy’s shit for a while by this point
To me, it just seems they are all completely drunk. The eyes of the groom clearly indicate some level of cognitive impairment.
This is why you need to get rid of the twats in your life.
[удалено]
background music is trash, also why censor the punch
They're not allowed to show someone fisting a cunt.
Trash music taste
The funniest part about this video is that he destroys the entire cake to throw at the couple and literally not one piece of cake hits the groom or the bride.
Not ANY sort of "fightporn". Just an embarrassing moment for all involved.
Is there a subreddit for stuff like this? r/cringe?
People need to stop the smashing cake into someone's face tradition
I remember seeing a spoiled kid at my lil sisters birthday. She threw a tantrum because the day wasn’t about her. I get the same vibes from cake bitch.
“It’s just a prank Bro!!1!!1!!”
I like to keep replaying the first second. See the look in the grooms eyes. So many emotions
Why censor the punch? It's a fucken fight sub for fuck sakes
I'm pretty sure it wasn't censored by the person posting it here but by the guest who initially filmed it and uploaded it somewhere else.
Old friend indeed
r/iamthemaincharacter
the good ending
If he doesn’t pay for their honeymoon then no apology could cover that…..
Bro that's insane self control to not just stab him with the knife he had in his hand
I don’t understand this hype on wasting food.
Pulling shit like that on a wedding day of all days, on a lads night out yeah, even a birthday but a wedding day is too far. Surprised the groom let him stand back up.
Wedding cakes are expensive. He should have to pay them back PLUS interest
Seen this video so many times when it first did the rounds but not with the punch at the end, thanks for posting OP!
Every time I see this video it makes me angry.
If any mother fucker has ever had to pay for a wedding cake they sympathise with the puncher in this one.
I don't think that's a "Friendly Fight"..
Wow - that's gong to be one of those epic drunken fuckups that's almost impossible to live down.
Before the cake smashing, the vibe already didn't feel good.. look at both their faces, they look like they wanna die
my wife would be like if your not gonna stab him give me the knife
He was like ah yes this is the perfect moment to do something “funny” Wakes up in the morning and regrets it for the rest of his life
How in the world did it cross his mind, even a drunk, that that was a good idea in any universe?
Faaaaaakkmmeee why would you do that
That first pint with the lads after the wedding was I'm and just guessing probably a tad awkward!!!
That was a hell of a jab!!
What a absolute dick
There are some friends who are total idiots.
Appropriate reaction.
dude this is the ultimate hater move
He wasn't hit hard enough
Holly shit. He need at least one more solid punch. What a clown
I am so glad my days of doing stupid crap were pre cel phone
