    ACK! The bride and groom cactus would be the most original and inexpensive cake topper I’ve seen in AGES. Super cute!

    I too adore succulents. What an amazing bouquet! I would be worried about it being fragile. I was planting some succulents this weekend, and broke off a handful of little leafs.
