The Interview: What to bring with you
- Your folder or binder filled
with your favorite cake ideas.
- Pictures or examples of special touches you'll want to include
in your cake, such as fruit, fresh flowers, sugar paste embroidery,
Mom's heirloom cake topper, Grandma's blue ribbon orchids or
Aunt Joanie's strawberry jam.
- An idea of how many guests will be attending your wedding.
- Swatches of your wedding colors to influence your cake’s
color and decor.
- An idea of what your wedding flowers will be and how you might
want to include them in your cake's decoration.
- A general concept of wedding day details. For example, will
the wedding take place in the afternoon or evening? Summer or
winter? Will your wedding be ultra-formal, very casual or somewhere
in-between? Will the reception (and the cake) be outside? Believe
it or not, knowing these details will help you and your cake
designer come to the perfect choice.
Last Minute Checklist: One
month before
- Confirm your cake delivery time with your cake designer.
Make sure the other wedding specialists, such as your caterers,
reception site coordinator, florist and wedding planner know
when your cake will be delivered.
- Give your cake designer contact information for the wedding
specialists they will need to contact, such as the caterer, reception
site coordinator, florist and wedding planner.
- Provide as many details about delivery as you can: parking
and loading information, the delivery time and how others may
contact you, your wedding planner or designated "point
person".
