Bourne Mansion Brides

Hello Ladies,
Has anyone talked with Ben lately or gone for a tasting??
I just wanted to check in and say hello
Hope your planning is going well.

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Nope - I was actually just wondering when my next payment was due..... Do you know what bakery our cake comes from? I thought it was Audery's and then I heard Black Forest.

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

I thought it was Audry's too. Did they change it?
Where is black forest? I never heard of it.

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

It's in Lindenhurst. I have a seen a couple of reviews with pictures from 2 girls on here who did not get the cakes they wanted and said the service was really bad....

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

the new one is black forest - but i was assured that i can still order from audreys - that is who they were using when i made the contract with them

if they do let me - i will not be happy

Audrey's has a great reputation and black forest does not have as good of one

but i will probably try both

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Oh Great, another thing I will have to worry about. I will have to call Ben this week to make sure that we can use Audry's.

Thanks for letting me know this.

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

If you find out, let me know! I just emailed him today, but forgot to ask about the cake!

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

As soon as I find out, I will let you all know.

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

anyone one hear from ben yet?

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Not yet.
But I will soon.
I will keep you all posted.
Have a good St. Patrick's Day

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

i just heard from Ben - he said we can use Audrey's still

i wanted it in written form - he did tell me that at the showcase

i have been emailing the baker at audrey's and he is very helpful

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Thats great to know. Thanks for filling us in

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Awesome!! When do we do cakes anyway? Like a month before??

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

i think you can do it when ever you want- but i think latest a month before

i contacted because i wanted to know how much extra the cake i want would be -also how i can go about tastings

are any brides planning the different layers have different cake or fillings?

what designs are you planning?

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

I haven't given much thought to the outside of the cake. I know I was buttercream frosting opposed to fondant. I wa sthinking something simple with maybe a red ribbon around each layer with fresh flowers. Not too sure. We do want a chocolate inside though, and I pretty sure that is extra.

Do you know if we are allowed to do votive place cards?

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Oh - and I think I want a square cake.

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

i can tell you the square cake is extra from audreys- and they don't have a square stand

my FH wants square so i gave him the job to find a sqaure stand

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

Maybe I can buy your stand afterwards!!

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

i am actually trying to amek deal first with audreys to make some of my decorations in exchange for the stand

but if that fails i will definetly sell it oyu after- i have no need for a wedding cake stand after the day

Re: Bourne Mansion Brides

I don't get it, they make a square cake, but there is no stand for it?

Do they have a stand for the round cake??

I thought they just sit on a table, I didn't know you needed a stand too.

I AM SOOOO LOST
