One order a few years ago saw me having to make a much larger cake than the Bride wanted because her MIL-2B insisted on having an exceptionally large footed stand.
I still believe to this day it would have looked lovely with floating candles in it instead of a cake!

The Venue, a Vineyard in the Wine Region of the Victorian Goldfields - Ballarat
So they have opted for a Hand Made Stand using Raw Timber Rounds, which will sit to one side of the Bridal Table on top of a Wine Barrel.
I finally got the photograph of it yesterday.
I won't be seeing it for real until I get to the Venue to set up on Saturday - SO
Enter a Stand in ..... Cake Stand.
Not terribly stable but enough to show the Couple what their Cake MAY look like...
Although it is a little like doing a dress fitting on a dummy with no Bride to be seen!
And this is what I have got so far ....
Nice to know that those extra Flower Sprays may be able to be used.
I spent today crawling into the back of cupboards and venturing down the Bungalow/Storeroom to find enough containers to transport the cupcakes.
Tomorrow I will start to Bake.
(And Pray that nothing goes wrong!)
That is an interesting cake stand. Probably not something I would have chosen, but I'm sure you will make it look beautiful.
