Budgeting for the Wedding cake

Six budgeting ideas for a merry wedding cake

Reduce the number of tiers and use a large sheet for base, as a rule of thumb-four to five layers is average for a wedding of 150-200 guests.
you can decorate with fresh flowers, sentimental logos, monogram options may save on decor and give a signature look
ask reception folks to reuse flowers for ceremony and place on cake table
skip the expensive fillings and keep the cake simple
do the new cupcake tiers, this will save on cake cutting and service expenses
square/rectangular shapes get the most cut per slice

Top 5 Cake Styles
Tall wedding cakes-you know about tiers, being on a budget you can use fake tiers
Fondant Cakes-it is really pretty, you often see it on those cake reality shows; however it is not as cost effective as the popular, tasty or cost effective as butter cream.
Drama cakes-Blues, Greens are the colors vs. the traditional white cakes
Bauble Tiered Cakes-ornaments for the wedding
Fresh Fruits Topped Cakes

Note: Cake slices range from $3-5 on average and orders should be in at least six months before your wedding date.
