The bride wore a yellow utility belt and elbow length gloves, while the groom wore a sky blue tie and boutonniere. And their cake, which depicts the Gotham skyline, is almost too gorgeous Tell Me More!

Batman Cake Features Gotham City Bank Robbery in Progress
This Batman cake was made by The Little Cherry Cake Company employee Tracey. It features a bank robbery in progress on this layered creation with Batman and the birthday boy, dressed as Robin, sitting at the very top of the Gotham City Bank. Two Face is on the back of the cake and there is a small alarm light above the Joker's head which flashes but neither can be seen from the photo. Our favorite is the little Harley!
