IT'S CAKE CONSULT TIME!

Who to Bring or Not to Bring, That's the Question!


You probably have so many ideas and know just exactly what your thoughts for your wedding cake. Ideas like fondant or non fondant; three tiers or four... 

But most importantly, the consultation with your baker/ cake designer should be fun, easy and go smoothly. It can take a turn to the exact opposite when a bride brings all of her bridesmaids to the consultation. Not to worry, it's a common mistake but one that you don't want to make. 

You really don't want to bring all of your friends, all the bridesmaids, sisters, mothers and grandmothers. It is wonderful to have the support and want everyone to be there for you. However, having too many attendees at the consultation means incorporating too many different opinions. One person may love the idea of a square cake; and another make love the idea of a round cake. And let's not talk about all the difference discussions about flavors. It's exhausting with just the thought in which way the meeting can go with too many participants. 


With that thought, unless you can stand your ground and not be easily swayed, our suggestion would be that you only need to include you groom and parents at the consultation. One things for sure, it can definitely illuminate a lot of confusion and frustration. And definitely, gives you a special memory to add to your wedding book.
