Just a quick update on the cake's progress...after 6 hours in the oven and cooling overnight - it didn't come out of the oven until 8pm - I pricked over the top of the cake and spooned over 2 tablespoons of brandy, letting it soak into the cake. It was then wrapped in two layers of greaseproof paper and two layers of foil and stored in a container in the larder to mature...only two more cakes to make next week and then I can start looking for the icing materials...phew!

You are definitely braver than me! I don't know if I would dare to ever
make a wedding cake. Good luck with it and I just know that it will be
good because you have started feeding it already!
Sylvie, not sure if I'm brave or foolish, time will tell! Thank you for your good luck wishes.
