Your wedding cake -- so delicious and beautiful that your groom will forget about the honeymoon!

Not really, of course.

But since this is your special day -- your wedding day you've dreamed about every since you were a little girl -- you want it to be the most wonderful wedding cake possible.

Surprisingly, you don't have to spend a fortune on your wedding cake. The very best thing you can do is find a local person who will work with you to design exactly the cake you have in mind. Together, the two of you can come up with a unique idea and design for the wedding cake and the side cakes, and she or he can even sketch it out for you so that you can SEE what it's going to look like before you commit to it.

For example, for those brides lucky enough to be in the Portland, Oregon metropolitan area, there is a fantastic gal named Jeanette who cares deeply about making the perfect wedding cake for each bride.

Instead of an impersonal bakery and their "assembly line" wedding cakes, Jeanette sits down with each bride and carefully works out the details for a cake custom-made for her, building on the bride's desires and ideas, and adding her own knowledge and experience to the mix. Her site is frostingonthecake.com in case you live in that area. Don't even think about having anyone but Jeanette make your wedding cake!

But if you don't live in the Portland Oregon / Vancouver Washington area, try to locate someone like Jeanette to make your perfect wedding cake.
