Fabulous wedding cake
We couldn’t recommend WedCakes highly enough … the taster box was a fantastic idea which allowed us to choose our 3 tier flavours … the cake itself was exactly as we’d requested.. our guests were still discussing it weeks later … so tasty and stunning to look at … everyone enjoyed it that much … such friendly professional service … thanks WedCakes

Truly Talented Cake Designer
We ordered a 3 tier wedding cake with the theme of ‘The Corpse Bride’ for our Halloween wedding. The cake it self was outstanding - the detail and care that went into the figures was incredible. It was a main talking point at our wedding with venue staff and family & friends commenting on how it was the best cake they had ever seen! We’re truly amazed at your decoration skills! The cake tasted delicious as well! Highly recommend! Thanks so much for making our celebration greater with your talent 🥰 x

Describe your style in 5 adjectives.

Clean, Elegant, Artistic, Bespoke, Unique

What about your business are you most proud of?

This would have to be attention to detail and time on each cake. I limit the orders that I take on each week so I am never rushing one order to get another one started. This is very important to me and lets the couple know I take their wedding as seriously as they do. I've started teaching classes too which is a real compliment in itself that many want to learn from me :)

What is your No. 1 wedding planning tip for couples?

One of the most important pieces of information would be to book the suppliers first that you will need to be there on your wedding day too! Some suppliers are wedding date dependent too and you will find that the best suppliers are normally booked out first in advance. So think venue (obviously), your celebrant, venue stylists, dj, band, cake artist, florist etc… all of these folks will need to have your date available too as they physically need to be at your venue on that specific date also. Items like your wedding dress, suits, stationery can all be picked up in advance of your date which frees up time to prioritise bookings. One thing I hear a lot is ‘My wedding is ages away so I don’t need to book my cake yet’, unfortunately those same folks leave it to 6 months or 3 months before and then find that their date is no longer available. Most suppliers have small deposits in place so you can secure the booking many months or years before and then worry about the finer design details closer to the date.

What is your favourite personal touch you have seen at a wedding?

This would have to be the Stairway to Heaven - a little wooden step ladder decked out with bunting and flowers, and framed photos of loved ones that have passed placed on the steps. Very moving to see, and greatly missed by the couples. It is a such a wonderful way of incorporating these special people in a day of celebration.

Describe your typical process with a couple.

Once your wedding date is book we can then meet up for a cake tasting and consultation where we will discuss designs, flowers or any features of their wedding that they want to incorporate as well as look through images of my own work in the past. A small deposit will then secure their wedding date with me. Couples then have the option to change their wedding cake design at any point up to one month before their wedding. Many couples like this freedom because styles and designs for many aspect of their wedding can change right up to a few weeks before their wedding. During the week of the wedding I’ll keep in touch with the couple about the cakes progress, then arrange delivery and setup with the venue myself. Couples have enough to worry about with one of them being the cake! I take this worry away! 
