The Cake

After the I had picked out and purchased my dress, the next step that Jon and I took was picking out the perfect wedding cake for our wedding. So far the wedding we both envisioned was not fancy to say in the least, but we did want elegance and more of a less formal wedding. I think that the cake says alot about how the wedding is designed so I started to ask around and find out different prices on caterers and what their capabilities were. The first caterer I went to was down in Salt Lake City and I brought a picture of the cake that I had really liked. After she had looked at the cake and gave me an estimate it came to $260 for me to come and pick it up and $380 for it to be delivered and set up. I decided that I would shop around some more before making my final decision. At my job I was referred to Gale Sattherwaite whom I was told did a beautiful job and wasnt very expensive. Jon and I went to meet her and she had a scrapbook full of previous cakes of all different designs. When Looking through the album I came across a cake that I loved. I instantly picked that cake and we wrote up a contract. My cake is a three tiered round cake with real frosting and three flavors of chocolate, banana and white. This all came with delivery, set-up and take down and it only ended up costing me $130.
