    Would give more stars if I could

    If you’re planning a wedding and starting to feel even a little overwhelmed… do yourself a favor and call Betsy at Piece of Cake Consulting. She is truly one of those people that just makes everything easier. From the start, she’s calm, organized, and somehow always one step ahead—which is exactly what you need when wedding planning starts to get chaotic. What I loved most is how personal she makes everything. She really listens and takes your vision seriously, but also knows how to guide you when you need it. Nothing feels forced or cookie-cutter—it all just comes together in a way that feels effortless (even though you know she’s working behind the scenes nonstop). And on the day of… you don’t have to think about a single thing. She has it handled. You actually get to be present and enjoy your wedding instead of worrying about timelines or logistics. Honestly, if you want a wedding that feels smooth, beautiful, and stress-free, Betsy is your girl. Couldn’t recommend her more

    We truly cannot say enough wonderful things about our wedding planner! From the very beginning, she was an incredible source of support, guidance, and reassurance throughout our entire year of wedding planning. My husband and I both had extremely demanding professional lives, and we also experienced some unexpected personal events along the way. There were definitely moments when wedding planning felt overwhelming, but Betsy kept us calm and helped us get it all done! She was always kind, patient, organized, and somehow managed to make us laugh even when we were stressed. She kept us excited about our wedding and reminded us to enjoy the process rather than getting lost in all the details. We always felt like we had someone in our corner who genuinely cared about us and wanted our wedding day to be everything we hoped for. Betsy was worth every single penny and then some. Having her support allowed us to actually enjoy our engagement and wedding day instead of feeling consumed by everything that goes into planning a wedding. Our wedding day was absolutely amazing, and we are so grateful she was such a big part of making it happen. We would recommend Betsy without hesitation to anyone planning a wedding, and we will absolutely be recommending her to all of our friends who get engaged in the future. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made!

    We found Piece of Cake by pure luck two weeks before our wedding and we are so glad we did (my husband and I are definitely not skilled at coordinating)! We hit the ground running with Jess since we had limited time to nail down the details/timeline. We cannot say enough nice things about Jess who helped so much at our planning meetings, rehearsal, and on our wedding day! She communicated promptly with all of our vendors when the timeline or plans changed. On the morning of our wedding, before she was even due to arrive, she was calling multiple places to try and find veil weights (I forgot to buy them!) and was even willing to pick them up herself. She expertly coordinated both of us and our bridal party, especially during moments when none of us knew exactly where everyone was supposed to be. During our first look and bridal party photos, she stood out in the drizzle making sure no one walked behind us, saving us from having to stop and restart the photoshoot while battling the wind and light rain and keeping on track with the timeline. Most importantly, Jess paid attention to the details that mattered to us and made sure everything was exactly how we envisioned it, while also making sure we were actually enjoying our wedding. We honestly don’t know how it’s possible, but with how smoothly everything went, it felt like she was in multiple places at once (we’re convinced she has superpowers). She truly took so much stress off of our shoulders and because of her, we were able to enjoy our day and be present in the moment with each other and our guests. We couldn’t be happier that we hired Piece of Cake, and we feel incredibly lucky that we got to work with Jess. She was truly exceptional and played such a big role in making our wedding day everything we hoped it would be.

    I truly can’t say enough good things about Betsy. Hiring her was one of the best decisions we made throughout our entire wedding planning process, and I honestly don’t know what we would have done without her. From day one, she kept us organized, on schedule, and somehow made wedding planning feel so much less overwhelming than we expected. She always knew what needed to happen next and made sure nothing slipped through the cracks. One of the biggest reasons we’d recommend Betsy is her incredible network of local vendors. Every vendor she recommended was fantastic, aligned with our vision, and fit within our budget. She also always had our best interests in mind, advocating for us and making sure we were getting the most out of every decision we made. By the time our wedding day arrived, we felt completely confident that everything was taken care of. Betsy handled every detail behind the scenes so we could actually be present, enjoy the day, and spend time with our family and friends instead of worrying about logistics. She truly brought our vision to life, and everything came together even better than we imagined. If you’re on the fence about hiring a wedding planner, hire Betsy. She is worth every penny and then some. We would recommend her 10 out of 10 times and are so grateful for everything she did to make our wedding day absolutely perfect.

Piece of Cake Consulting llc is an award winning wedding & event planning company serving Madison, Wi., Lake Geneva & everywhere in between. We plan roughly 16-24 wedding & corporate events each year. I would love to discuss your wedding details further, as well as my 14+ years of wedding planning experience and education as a Certified Bridal Consultant. If you’re interested, please let me know a good day & time for us to chat.
Absolutely, let us know what you are thinking & we can figure something out.
A number of factors are taken into consideration when issuing a fee quote. Things such as time of year, indoor/outdoor, number of guests, how much staff is required, how much setup/teardown is required, etc.
No, each year we turn dozens of couples away due to very limited availability. We have a boutique style planning approach & very much enjoy getting to know our clients. We are not a wedding factory.
Hourly consults are a great way to help you get organized, prioritize and get started out in the right direction. See more details on our packages here or contact us for a free consult to determine which will be the best fit for you.
​Yes! I have lived in the Madison area my entire life and worked in the surrounding area on event planning since 2011. I'm very familiar with local vendors and the going rates. I recommend vendors based on your style, needs and budget.
Yes. Love is love and I love helping LGBT clients plan the wedding of their dreams. If you're looking for an LGBTQ+ wedding planner near you, reach out for a free quote.
You are the boss of your wedding! It is a common myth that a wedding planner will take over your wedding. Some couples prefer to be very hands on, others do not. I work hard to develop unique ideas with professional vendors to create a one of a kind experience for you and your guests. ​Part of my job is to make your wedding planning experience easier and more enjoyable and that is what I will strive to do.
I will always try to get the best value for my clients. I simply recommend local vendors that I’ve personally worked with in the past and have had good experience with. Many of the vendors I work with regularly offer exclusive discounts to my clients. Often times, a knowledgeable wedding coordinator will ultimately save you a lot of money, time and stress.
I book one full calendar year in advance. This is on a first come first serve basis. I do book up each year and unfortunately have to turn couples away, so please contact me today for a complimentary consultation. Dates are filling up quickly.
Half of the package price is required to reserve your wedding day. The remaining balance is due 30 days before your wedding day. ​Cash, checks and Zelle are accepted forms of payment.
