A wedding cake timeline that actually holds
Twelve weeks from first tasting to on-site assembly — and why we refuse to compress the last four days.

Grand commissions follow a quiet calendar. Week twelve is the tasting. Week eight is the sketch. Week three is the final guest count. The cake itself is baked in the last forty-eight hours so the crumb is still speaking when you cut.
What we need from you
Palette references, the linen color, and whether the cake travels or we assemble on site. If a planner is in the room, we copy them on every window.
A cake that arrives early is a cake that has already started to dry.
