"Hi, I'm Melisssa Maggiore with Alessi Bakeries. I'm here to talk to you about tips on what kind of color sample you could bring to your wedding cake appointment to implement them onto your wedding cake. It's not really necessary to carry around that favorite dress or those favorite color pair of shoes. You can most certainly go to any hardware store, Wal-mart, or any convenient store that has the color chip samples, bring those in to your wedding designer, find the perfect match. All you need to do is pick up a large array of different colors that are going to be implemented on your cake, bring them back home, match them up to your color, bring them to your wedding cake designer, bring them to your linen people, bring them to your flower people, bring them to everyone, make sure we are all color coded. You can also go and get a large array of different ribbon samples. It's so easy just to get a snip of ribbon to match your color to your cake or to whatever you would like to implement in color on your cake. Whether it be a ribbon around the base, whether it be flowers, what if it's just the wrapping paper on the bottom. It doesn't really make a difference to us, as long as you bring an ample amount of colors that you would like us to put on your cake, and to just make sure that they're the perfect match for your perfect day. Again, I am Melissa Maggiore with Alessi Bakeries."
