This may just be one of the weirdest wedding cake designs you've ever seen. Some couples fuss over cakes with buttercream or vanilla frosting for their big day, but this cake is anything but traditional.
Instead of actually having any kind of dessert that is at all cake-shaped, this couple opted for a design that is made to look like their severed heads, which takes the concept of "'Til Death Do Us Part" way over the top.
This may be the perfect cake for a couple that loves all things macabre, but this gruesome wedding cake will definitely make some stomachs churn -- so just be thankful that you weren't invited to this wedding and didn't have to take a bite of these faces.
