Tips for ordering your wedding cake:

Before deciding on the size of the wedding cake, ask yourself these questions:

  • Aside from the number of invited guests, will I need additional servings for band members, photographer, etc.?
  • Am I saving the top cake tier for our first anniversary?
  • If you are having a large wedding do you prefer a large multi-tiered wedding cake for the viewing table or a smaller scaled wedding cake with a few back-up sheet cakes to be sliced for additional servings?  This option will decrease the overall costs.

When you are ready to place your wedding cake order, please have the following available:

  • Payment.  You need to put down a 50% deposit for the total cost.  Payment can be made by cash, check or credit card.
  • The remaining balance needs to be paid in full one week prior to the wedding.
  • If the cake is to be delivered, have the contact name, address and phone number of the address the cake is to be delivered.

We hope all this information helps you with your big day.  We are here to help you make your wedding day as lovely as can be.
