I used to make the mistake of removing the cake topper. Hey, stop laughing, it's something you have to do in RL. I couldn't figure out why my newlyweds couldn't fulfill the 'take the first piece of cake' requirement. I came to the forums to find out what I was doing wrong. And, that's when I found out removing the topper was bad news. The game sees it as an ordinary cake, rather than a wedding cake without the topper. Face/palm. But, yeah, I made the mistake of anticipating the caterer would bake the cake. In full panic mode, I had the groom rush into the kitchen and bake the cake! Happily, before the timer ran out on the reception! But, just barely. Phew!
I've never worked a party so hard in my life. LOL
