The Wayback was honored to be a part of this couple's story of love that turned into a surprise no one saw coming. Amidst the green trees and the lush floral arrangements by Blumen Floral, The Schumanns not only pledged their love to each other through an elopement but also shared a heartwarming surprise with their closest family - the gender of their soon-to-be-born baby.

The couple's creative idea to turn their wedding cake into a dual celebration made this elopement even more special. Their wedding cake wasn't just any wedding cake; it also carried the secret of their baby's gender with pink or blue frosting inside. The anticipation built as the moment to cut the cake drew near, with their family speculating and sharing their excitement.

As the couple took the champagne glasses to the cake, they held them up to show everyone the blue frosting - they were having a boy! Cheers and congratulations filled the air, turning the intimate elopement into a dual celebration. The cake looked like a white wedding cake on the outside, with a custom cake topper that read "The Schumann's." It cleverly concealed the blue-hued interior, waiting for the right moment to share the joyous news.
