Choosing your wedding cake can be stressful; Not only is the cake an important focal point for your reception but the cutting of the wedding cake is also one of the first things that many couples do together as a married couple! To make the process a whole lot easier follow this simple plan to help you organise the perfect wedding cake.

1. Inspired Wedding Cake Ideas

It should be fun researching ideas for your wedding cake; you�ll need to decide on flavors, size and shape as well as decoration! If you haven�t a theme already start by compiling a wedding scrapbook or mood board of wedding cakes that you love. Research ideas and inspiration for your perfect wedding cake style by searching online to find books or magazines about wedding cakes. Tear out wedding cake pictures from magazines.

2. Wedding Cake that tastes as good as it looks

We suggest you make an appointment with at least three wedding cake designers - comparison shopping helps you to get the best value for money as well someone who you will enjoy working with you to create the most beautiful cake for your Wedding, in your style and within your budget.

Schedule a tasting with your short listed cake makers - It�s a tough job but someone�s got to do it! Your cake should taste as good as it looks. This is a good opportunity to check out which cake maker will be able to turn your wedding cake dreams into a delicious reality!

3. Work that Wedding Cake Designer

If you feel a bit daunted by all of the choices then don�t forget your wedding cake designer who will be an invaluable source of ideas, advice and inspiration. A good wedding cake designer will be a great asset - interpreting your ideas and working within your budget to create the wedding cake of your dreams. Your wedding cake designer will be able to help you select the most appropriate cake to complement your style, your wedding theme and your budget.

To make sure that your designer understands your requirements perfectly you need to explain your themes, style and colors and give examples of wedding cake designs that you like.

• Take along your ideas, tear outs and mood board if you have them.
• You will also need to be able to give the cake designer a firm idea of how much you would like to spend, as this will guide the choices open to you.
• It�s ideal if the wedding cake maker already knows your wedding venue, as they will be familiar with the venue’s requirements.

4. Book Your Wedding Cake

Once you�ve chosen your favorite wedding cake designer book them up quickly to avoid disappointment. You may be expected to make a deposit at this stage to secure your booking - as with every supplier it�s a good idea to lay out in writing what is expected from each party.
