Wedding Cake

All week I have been talking about the wedding cake I was going to have to help my 15-year-old make for her Romeo and Juliet party at school. I have been dreading this event for some time now. I don't have a problem with baking, but a wedding cake seemed to be a huge undertaking to me. I think it's the decorating part that gives me hives. Plus, she decided she wanted to do a fondant cake. Who on Earth told her about that stuff?  ..oh, wait.  I think I did. See, I cause my own trouble. Thank goodness for the Internet. I've been searching for weeks now about how to do this. It's only for about 25 kids, so I knew that I didn't want to go really crazy and make a 3 tier monstrosity. I watched a ton of videos - man they make that look easy. I also knew that I was not going to have time to tackle roses or anything like that.  This was going to have to be a simple, yet somewhat elegant, cake. How do I get myself into these things? Of course she wanted marble cake...
