Common questions

Wedding Cakes in Ireland, answered

How much do wedding cakes cost in Ireland?

Most Irish couples spend between €300 and €900, which is roughly 2% of a typical €37,000 wedding budget. Across the 2 suppliers listed here with a published price, the average starting price is €390. Prices are higher in Dublin and lower in the midlands and border counties.

When should we book a wedding cake maker?

About 6 months before the wedding is normal. For a Saturday in June, July or August, book earlier. The most in-demand suppliers in Ireland are gone 18 months out for peak dates. Off-peak and midweek dates are far easier.

How do we compare wedding cakes properly?

Get everything in writing and compare like with like. How many servings per tier at your recommended portion size? Is delivery and setup at the venue included? Ask each supplier the same set of questions and put the answers side by side. The cheapest quote is often the one with the most stripped out of it.

Do you charge couples to use WeddingServicesIreland?

No, and it is free for suppliers too. There is no listing fee, no commission and no paid placement. Ranking comes from the enquiries and reviews couples actually generate, so nobody can buy their way above a better supplier.
