Grooms cake of the week (6/7/10)


Hey All,

I've decided to add for a new feature of this blog is to post groom's cake of the week. Every Monday a new cake will be posted.

I found this while searching on google "Groom's cakes". Why did I decide to make a Nintendo controller the first cake you ask? Anyone born the late 70’s/80’s played Nintendo and its part of my childhood. Plenty of hours were spent with this controller.

If you would like to submit a cake for next week. Email us at groomwars@gmail.com

My fantasy groom’s wedding ring



I know plenty of us guys out there are into Sports. I’m talking about real Man sports. You know the one’s that include a ball like for example: Baseball, football, basketball and soccer. The 2009 Yankees World series ring is amazing. You would have to be either a player or an employee of the Yankees to be entitled to owning it. I’d choose that ring to wear over any wedding ring. I’m sure when Derek Jeter get married later on this year that he would most likely wear an actual wedding band. However nothing could compare to his current collect of 5 World Series rings. However the 2009 World Series ring I think is the best championship ring out of any sport out there. This past week I was able to see the 2009 World Series ring in person. I’ve taken a picture of the ring and compared it to my actual (groom’s engagement ring that my finance gave me). The Yankees World Series ring is very impressive. If I had to choose any fantasy wedding ring to wear it would surely be this one.

I’ve attending our first wedding of the year:

So wedding season has officially started for us as of Memorial Day weekend. So far we have been invited to 4 weddings this year. The first wedding we attending was a beach theme wedding. The wedding took place on the Jersey shore. There was fist pumping going on...lol. The wedding was for my best friend’s sister. She looked amazing. The weather was amazing. The ceremony was outdoors as well as the cocktail hour. The reception was indoors. I also really enjoyed my Chilean Sea bass entrée.

One wedding down. 3 more to attend this year.

Guy’s night out/Girls night out

Hello my future grooms. I’m sure it’s been awhile since you might have seen your close guy friends. I strongly suggest that you should arrange time within your busy schedules for a guy’s night out. You should also suggest to your fiancée that she should also do a girls night out. Mine was long over due. Saturday night with my close guy friends we went to a bar into the Manhattan to watch the subway series. I’m a big time Yankees fan. I know they lost on Saturday but it didn’t stop us from having a good time and drinking a lot of beers. It was nice to catch up with my close guy friends. While I was with my best buds, my fiancée went out with one of her bridesmaid to celebrate her birthday. So she had her own girl’s night out.

So the moral of the story is that I strongly suggest that even though there’s a lot going on with your lives. You should still make time for your close friends and hang out whenever you can before having kids that take over your lives..lol

I’ve joined a gym recently and you should too.


Health and fitness is a lifestyle. You should incorporate it into your daily routine for the rest of your life. I originally hired a personal trainer 5 months before our engagement party for my fiancée and me to get into shape. It was a great experience. My fiancée has a gym in her basement. Treadmill, stepper, an abs device, a bike and I brought over my workout bench plus we had various dumbbells. However we need to come up with a routine and a diet. So that’s where the personal trainer came in. 2x a week he taught us the proper ways to work out lift and assigned diets. The gym is perfect for my fiancée. However I outgrew it very fast. So I’ve recently joined LA fitness as a promise to my trainer after we had our engagement party last month.

Guys unless your already looking like “the situation” then you should work out and join a gym. If you’re spending a lot of money or want to look great for your wedding/photos/honeymoon and for the rest of your life then it starts now. If you got days, weeks, months or years before you’re married. Your health & fitness starts NOW. Stop making excuses. If you can devote half an hour to an hour a day on your self then your wasting your time and everyone else’s. If you like TV then invest in a DVR/Tivo so you can record your favorite programs. You could also either wake up a little bit earlier then you normally do or go to sleep a little bit later then your normally do. STOP making excuses. It all starts now. Since Jan I’ve lost 11 pounds. I’m very happy with my results. I’m 5’5 and I originally weighed 168. My goal is 145-150lbs. I’m halfway there now that I’m 157lbs. I don’t need to lose a lot of weight but I like to have a better physical appearance. I also want to have very nice abs, arms, chest and etc when I’m walking along the beach in Hawaii June 2011. Those are my goals. Plus 30 years from now when I’m looking back at my wedding/honeymoon photos I want to remember that I looked the best I could ever be. I’ve made It my goal to get in shape. So should you.

TLC 4 Wedding’s. I like this show

My fiancée just got me into watching TLC’s 4 weddings. It’s an interesting show. It’s about 4 Brides that attend each other’s weddings and rate each wedding. The winning Bride that has the best wedding among the 4 brides gets an all expense paid honeymoon. I do like how they show you the highlights of all 4 weddings and how the real brides rate each other’s affair. I’ve only watched 2 episodes so far. But I’m already hooked. Some lessons I’ve learned so far from watching.

The Ceremony – Make sure everyone can view the couple getting married and can sit down. People don’t like standing. Plus if you have guests that can’t stand this would be a major issue.

The Cocktail hour –
Make sure there’s a great flow from your guests to and from the cocktail designated areas. Also make sure when they are passing hors d’oeuvres that there’s plenty to go around and the waiters/waitress are very visible.

The reception – Guests like to see the traditional stuff that you see at a wedding. Cake cutting, first dance, dance if possible with parents, and the best man/maid/matron of honor speeches (Don’t have long speeches, just funny and direct) your guests should know and like to PARTY. They should all be dancing. Great Music. Either and awesome DJ/MC or Live Band .

Food – Must have great Food

The show focus on the Brides wedding dress, wedding venue, Food and overall experience. But for my blog purposes. The groom should concern himself with the Entertainment and Food.
