How to Save Money on Your Wedding Cake


·      You can opt for a smaller wedding cake and purchase sheet cakes
as a less expensive option to serve all your wedding guests

·      Your cake doesn’t have to be real, just one slice does. If you’re not
serving your wedding cake to your guests then have a Styrofoam
cake decorated and have one piece be real or a cake behind the fake
cake to do the traditional cake cutting

·      If you’re not serving your wedding cake for dessert you don’t need
to order one slice per person because if you’re serving it on your
midnight buffet not everyone will eat it

·      Many venues do charge a cake cutting fee/plating fee to serve a
cake not made by their catering staff

·      Use cardboard circles stacked together to give your cake the desired height you want, or you can purchase a cake stand from companies such as Raise the Cake. www.raisethecake.com 

·      Decorate the dummy cake just like a real cake

·      Want more servings then make your base larger or add satellite
Cakes (mini wedding cakes) which makes the cake table look extravagant
