This is such a good question! The average cost will depend on each designer and the number of guests you liked to serve, but for me, I average about $600-$900 for two tiers and $700-$1000 for three tiers. This is serving 70-120 guests, which are the average sizes for a wedding that we tend to create. Happy to chat more with more specific details :)

It varies from designer to designer and also depends on the level of detail and design, florals added, buttercream or fondant icing.

I would suggest that you should expect to budget around $700-$800 for a buttercream tiered cake with simple flower arrangement, to serve 100 people.
