THE DESIGN PROCESS
- Understanding Your Vision: Together, we’ll discuss your overall aspirations for the wedding – colors, themes, vibes, and of course, the cake flavors.
- Clarifying Your Taste: Tell me about the cake styles you've been dreaming of, and if there's anything specific you’d rather avoid.
- Setting a Budget: It's important we discuss your budget upfront so I can align my suggestions seamlessly with it. Pricing: The price will depend on how many servings are needed, and most importantly on what the design is. I don't charge per serving, it's more like a range of servings and the design. The more detail that the cake is the more the price will increase.
- Crafting a Mood Board: Based on our conversation, I’ll create a visual mood board. This will give you a clearer picture and aid in refining your choices.
- Sketching Begins: I’ll draft some rough sketches. We can make tweaks easily at this stage.
- Incorporating Your Feedback: Your insights are invaluable. We’ll keep refining until you fall in love with the design.
- We'll explore potential additional costs, maybe due to some exotic ingredients or special designs.
- I value clarity, so we'll align on the number of design revisions you’d like.
- Fine-tuning the Design: Post our discussion, I'll refine our collaborated design. Once ready, I’ll share it for your final nod.
- Final Touches: With the design approved, we’ll get into the specifics like delivery timings and setup needs.
- Clear Communication: To ensure transparency, I maintain a comprehensive checklist. As we make decisions, I’ll mark them. This ensures everything is on track. Every decision, big or small, will be documented. This way, we remain synced from the get-go to the final reveal.
