so, we feed each other? or…

I once made a very real cake for a very fake wedding. my friend nichole introduced me to a florist who was planning a fake wedding shoot to take photos of their flower bouquets. the day of the wedding i show up with two cakes; my first tiered cake - red velvet and a dark chocolate along with a simple white heart shaped vanilla cake. the bride was played by my friend and the groom a stranger to us both. He was, as it turns out, her neighbor living just nextdoor. holding hands insincerely, they exchanged vows by saying any words that came to mind at each other. i watched them feed each other cake. it was overwhelmed by distrust and anxiety. however, no cake was smashed and the reception carried on without anyone ruining their borrowed clothes. i wish them the best when they awkwardly pass each other on the way to their cars .
