HOW TO CHOOSE AN LGBTQ BAKERY NEAR ME?
Define your ideal wedding cake
Start your search for cake for gay wedding by definig what you’re looking for. Knowing what you want will make the search for the ideal gay couple wedding cake such much enjoyable.
Seek inspiration by browsing LGBT cake designs on Pinterest and Google Images. Search either of these sites for things like “gay wedding cake ideas” or “custom gay wedding cake toppers” or “lesbian wedding cake toppers”.
Reach out to family, friends and LGBTQ community. Recall some of the recent gay weddings you attended, review wedding cake pictures from that event.
Once you have a bunch of images of cakes for same sex couples, place them into your moodboard. If you already have a wedding mood board, add the cake photos to it. Having all images in one place will help you maintain the same wedding theme.
Understand the cake options
Now that you have a clear idea of what your tiered wedding cake should look like, let’s review cake options and packages.
Google “lgbtq bakery near me” or “cake shop gay wedding near me” and get a list of local wedding cake vendors offering gay and lesbian wedding cakes.
When considering options, start with creative cake examples bakeries share on their website and online profiles. Check cake shop customer reviews. Don’t try to find the best star rating. Instead look for volume of reviews and details of the testimonials.
Finally take a look at packages and pricing they offer. Remember, the cheapest cake is not not worth it and the most expensive is not always the best wedding cake.
