Who Puts Flowers on the Cake? | Sandy Utah Wedding Florist

Oct 10

When planning your wedding, the small details often make the biggest impact, and one such detail is the flowers on your cake. It’s easy to overlook, but deciding who will place those beautiful blooms on your cake is something you’ll want to clarify ahead of time.

In my experience as a wedding florist, I’ve found that every cake artist has a different approach when it comes to decorating cakes with flowers. Some cake artists prefer to handle the floral decorating themselves, while others may leave it to the florist—or they may even want to provide their own flowers. That’s why communication is key.

Should You Order Cake Flowers from Your Florist? | Sandy Utah Wedding Florist

From a professional florist's perspective, I recommend ordering your cake flowers through your wedding florist. This ensures that the flowers on your cake match the rest of your floral arrangements, creating a cohesive, beautiful look across your entire event. The flowers on your cake should complement the blooms in your bouquets, centerpieces, and other arrangements for a unified aesthetic.

Once you’ve decided on the flowers, it’s important to ask your cake artist their preference—whether they’d like to handle the floral decorating themselves or leave it to the florist. From there, we can coordinate the best way to bring your vision to life.
