    We're having 3 for the actual cake (of very small sizes), but I'm ordering additional trays to make sure every guest gets a piece.

    Mine will be 2 tiers, which will be more than enough for our tiny wedding :)

    3 but it's supposed to be enough for 100 pieces, plus another large cake, in addition to a traditional Norwegian almond cake-thing

    I should add that there are sweet thooths (teeth?) on both sides

    3 tiers, and that's all we'll have (but there will be a separate dessert that will be plated...so the cake is just for having tiny pieces with coffee). Sounds like we're having a relatively tiny cake!

    @Knubbsy-Wubbsy: Are you having a kransekake?  I think we might wind up having ours at the rehearsal since bringing in outside food makes our venue very nervous.  FI is half Norwegian :-)

    i think we're going with 3 tiers and a sheetcake in the back (it's like $300 cheaper than having 4 tiers) and then a groom's cake

    While we are having a large wedding we are only having a 2 tier cake and then we are doing cupcakes in a few different flavors for everyone.

    I would like 4 tiers but I think we will have 3 tiers and we may need some sheet cake because I have 175 guests

    I had 4 tiers but one of them was fake. We didn't need all of the cake for our 100 guests but I wanted to look of a taller cake.

    3 tiers, maybe 1 or 2 of them fake, and lots of 'secret-sheet-cakes' in the back. I can't imagine having to buy a cake to feed 300ish, and then have to cut something so pretty and tall into itsy bitsy pieces.
