#MAKETRADITION As an engagement present, a friend gifted Clay and Mike their very own pair of Lego grooms. Because the company doesn’t create sets of grooms, it took a bit of DIY magic. The gifter bought two separate sets of brides and grooms, combined the boys and reworked the packaging, cutting out different parts, so it would appear as though the toys were made with grooms in mind.
COURTESY OF VENDORS
The Legos were such a clever, thoughtful gift, we knew we had to use them on our cake. We’ll always keep them—in fact, they might make an appearance at an anniversary party down the road. -Clay
