Tips For Ordering Your Cake

One of the most important parts of wedding planning is choosing your cake. Your cake adds to your overall design and stands out at the reception. Also, it serves as the main dessert and sweetens the party! Most guests look forward to seeing and tasting your cake. Accordingly, it’s essential that you take the right steps to order your cake. We spoke with Rolan and Roxy from the Royal Cakes team and they provided us with a perfect guideline to help you with your wedding cake shopping experience:

Here are the top 5 tips to keep in mind when ordering your wedding cake: 

1. Couples should place their wedding cake orders 6 to 8 months in advance. You may think you can order your cake closer to the wedding, but if you want your specific design and vendor, you should book early. Keep in mind that certain weekends get booked faster than others so secure your date.
2. Royal Cakes meets with every client with appointment only at their showroom. Appointments usually take 30 minutes during which all aspects of design and flavors are discussed to get started and bring your vision to life.
3. As always, brides should research prior to the appointment. By doing so, you can narrow down your favorites and dislikes in designs and help choose the best cake elements and design choices based on your preference. This can help you focus on the fine details of your dream cake.
4. During your first appointment, your cake can be booked with a deposit to secure the order.  Two weeks to a month prior to the wedding, you will meet again to finalize all details. The Royal Cakes team will work with you throughout the entire time to ensure a fun and easy process and a perfect delivery of your cake.
5. If you are planning to have a destination wedding, your cake can travel to your desired place! Royal Cakes travels for destination weddings as well. To secure availability, you should book for this service a year in advance. The team flies to the site of the wedding and prepares the cake there. They coordinate with the event venue and wedding planners to confirm all details.
