Getting Wedding Cake Quotes
For a Wedding Cake Maker one of the most frequently asked questions is "How much will my Wedding cake Cost?" In order to enable your Wedding Cake Baker to give you an accurate quote they will require some information from you about your cake aspirations, so in order to make the consultation and quotation process as smooth as possible take a look at this guide as to questions that you will likely be asked.
Do I Need a Wedding Cake Consultation?
Choosing a Wedding Cake can be one of the most exciting (and daunting) tasks facing a couple when planning their special day. Some couples have a clear idea as to what they want and are just after someone to to talk things through and confirm that there is not a more appropriate alternative that they might have overlooked, whereas other couples find the multitude of styles, sizes, flavours and options overwhelming and are looking for help and guidance through the decision process. The experience can be made a lot smoother and easier by enlisting the aid and wealth of knowledge possessed by an experienced Wedding Cake Maker.
Wedding Cake Consultations are usually made:
- In person,
- Over the phone,
- Via email,
- Or a combination of the above.
Preparing for a Wedding Cake Consultation
Although not essential it will make the consultation process easier if you are able to do some preparation beforehand and give thought to the following:
- What decoration do I want? A cakes decoration is an important way of making the cake personal to you, thought often needs to be given to try and integrate a wedding's particular colour scheme so it is useful if you are able to provide the cake maker with a sample of the colour scheme that they will be able to keep.
- What style cake do I want? Traditional, Contemporary, Tiered Cakes, Stacker Cakes, Cupcake Wedding Cakes, Chocolate cakes, mini cakes (where each guest has their own cake). Often the easiest way to decide is to look through examples in Wedding Magazines and in galleries on Wedding Cake Maker's websites. If you have found some photos that appeal to you then take copies along to your consultation or else email a copy
- How many guests do I have? In order to establish the physical size of the cake(s) it is necessary to know how many people it is going to be served to and whether the cake is going to be served as a finger (either by itself or with a cup of coffee) or as the dessert (in which case a larger slice would be required).
- Do I want to keep the Top Tier? If you want to keep one of the tiers for a subsequent party or Christening then this will need to be taken into consideration as it means that an additional cake will need to be made.
- Do you want the cake to be delivered? If so then is the venue within commutable distance of your chosen cake maker?
- Flavour: Do you want a fruit cake, sponge cake (plain or flavoured), chocolate cake or cake with fresh fruit or berries? Some Wedding Cake Makers will offer to make your cake with a range of flavours (each tier could be a different flavour or individual cupcakes cakes could be made as different flavours) or in a custom flavour (anything that you or they can imagine).
- Date of the Wedding: Obviously the Cake Maker will need to check their availability. Cake Makers can only produce a certain number of cakes in a week and popular times of the year such as August (especially weekends) often get booked up early in the year.
- Budget: Have a clear idea in your own mind as to what your budget is and whether there is a degree of flexibility. Often it is possible to discuss with your cake maker ways of making a wedding cake cheaper
...and above all else, do not forget to:
- Discuss all the above with your fiancee. Your wedding day is a special day for the two of you as a couple but its planning can be a stressful process, one way to eliminate a source of stress is to ensure that both you and your fiancee have the same expectations as to what is important in a wedding cake (be it a particular style, flavour or budget).
How Much Will My Wedding Cake Cost?
The most often asked question during a consultation is "how much will my wedding cake cost?", however in order to provide an accurate quote many of the above questions will need to be answered. So the more information that you are able to provide the more accurate the Cake Makers quote will be.
