Video: Waiter drops R90,000 wedding cake

This bride was everything "mindful and demure" as she watched her wedding cake descend onto the ground before her eyes...

There's this assumption about brides based on several previous encounters that they tend to freak out if something goes wrong on their wedding day. This is mainly because the media has socialised this day as the most special day in a lady's life.

So, when something goes off-script, we expect the bride (and sometimes the groom too) to react accordingly. But this bride and groom were the epitome of calm, even after their $5,000 (R90,000) wedding cake fell to the ground.

We cannot imagine what was said to the waiter, eek! It might be one of the luckiest wedding cake fails that wasn't a full-on fail ever. 

It was almost too graceful... the way the cake landed right-side-up was the best part. 

People had a healthy mix of responses, many calling the whole affair "mindful and demure", while others were shocked that the cake was so expensive.

We have to admit, we're no cake experts, but that does seem like a lot of money to pay for something so plain.

• "The cake was very mindful, it's drop was very demure, very cutesy it's not like all the other cakes which flopped on its face."
• "See how the cake didint flip? Very mindy very elegant very demure."
• "See how she didn’t let it ruin her wedding night very elegant very mindful very demure."
• "5000$ for a circle …"
• "You see how the newly weds reacted very calm very happy very cutey very demure."
• "See how the chef turned and walked away very mindful very classy very demure."
• "$5000 for a plain white circle?"
• "Is the $5000 wedding cake in the room with us?"
