I ordered my cake 10 months before the wedding. I figured that if you find someone that you like and you already know what you want your cake to look like then go ahead and order it.
Our wedding isn't until March of next year. We have already done some tastings and are meeting with the cake person this Saturday to order our cake. If you have done some tastings and have fallen in love with a specific cake company, I say order now. If you don't book your date when you have a chance, they might not be able to accommodate you because they will be booked.
As for the sundae bar, we are also considering having one. The price, like all other prices, will vary by location.
We did tastings/ordered our cake 8 months in advance. If you have the time, i'd go ahead and lock it down - one less thing to worry about, right?! And a sundae bar sounds AWESOME! I wish we were allowed to have an ice cream shop do that at our venue!
I'm getting married the first weekend in October and booked my cake vendor about three weeks ago. It seemed a little early but it was good to get it off my plate! (Excuse the pun!) I had tasted a ton of cake at a wedding show and set up only one tasting/appointment with the girl I knew I wanted to book. Booking the cake has been the easiest and most stress-free part of planning so far!
Book it now! Not much changes except the number of slices so get it out of the way. I did 6-7 months before but I'm only engaged for 8!
We booked ours in December for a July wedding. I'm glad we did because the prices increased less than a month after we booked! Once you sign the contract, your price will be "locked in."
Im a November bride also! Our Baker told us to come see her to chose everything 2 months prior, so we are going Sept
Our baker is one of the most popular in the area, so we picked flavors and booked her about 10 months out. But we are picking the design and finalizing the order this month for our June wedding.
We ordered ours in February so 9 months before. Our baker said that min is 6 months
I went to cake tasting 10months before the wedding, and order the cake 1 week aftter the tasting.
Sundae bar - i am interested in that too! do we bring our own fridge? i'm confused...
It depends on where you're ordering your cake from! If its from a popular bakery or decorator- then the more notice the better chances you'll get what you want! However, I've seen people come in a week before their wedding & select a cake :) Most larger operations can handle last minute orders as long as the date isn't already jam-packed!
If you know what you want, I'd suggest just getting it out of the way! It's one less detail you need to worry about & you can check it off your list!
My work is making my cake for me & I change my mind on the design on a weekly basis lol. I'll have my design finalized the week before my wedding & I'll probably hate it. It's just too hard to nail down a design.
Cold Stone will set up a slab with dry ice and make sundae's with the mixins at the venue. Just like in the store, but I'm having a hard time getting the owner's to call me back with pricing because it's a new service in K.C.

My wedding is in November and I'm wondering how early I should do my tasting and order my cake. Also, instead of a grooms cake we are thinking about having coldstone set up a sundae bar has anyone done this? How much did it cost?
