Seems like so long since I have blogged. I have been working on my other project, which is a new full website. Here is more advice on planning... Back to what I love...
Our wedding cake was included in our reception package. We had the choice of two bakers: Creative Cakes by Donna and Cakes Etcetera. My instinct was to go with the baker I had heard of. In CT everyone knows Creative Cakes by Donna, she is the baker to go to. Immediately, I called her to get more information and find out if I could make an appointment to meet with her. I live in MA and was going home for the weekend to take care of some wedding planning. She basically wanted all the information over the phone and when I asked if I could meet with her, she said I could stop by and pick up some samples but that we would talk closer to the wedding to finalize everything. Ummmm - okay, let me pick out my wedding cake over the phone.
I then decided to call Cakes Etcetera and that is when I met Carol. She was amazing and unbelievably helpful. Part of what made me call her was her extensive pictures of cakes on her website and of course I found a wedding cake with Hidden Mickeys on it. It was destiny. I called her and made an appointment to meet her. She was amazing and so helpful. I ended up getting my wedding cake and my flowers through her. She does the whole thing - cakes, invitations, flowers... She was great and kept in constant contact with me. I only had a bite of the cake, but it was great!!!!
So the reason I am writing this is because don't you know that two weeks before my wedding Creative Cakes by Donna called me to confirm my wedding cake. I guess at that point I was supposed to have it all written down and be waiting for their call. Can you imagine being a bride and waiting until 2 weeks before your wedding to decide on your cake.
Needless to say, I do not recommend Creative Cakes by Donna and absolutely love Carol at Cakes Etcetera - http://www.cakesetcetera.com/
Good luck!
