Vendor Spotlight, Fat Bottom Bakery


Vegan wedding desserts, anyone? Well we have a bakery for you. Fat Bottom Bakery was started by friends, Carolynn and Ashley, as an outlet for their love of baking and their combined commitment to veganism and delicious, sustainable foods. All of their treats are vegan, which means they don’t use any dairy, egg or other animal products. They use as many organic ingredients as possible and make every effort to source ingredients locally, making their goods fresher, tastier and ecologically sustainable.


We asked Ashley and Carolynn what they like about baking for weddings: “It’s always lovely to deliver and set up for a wedding, since we often get a little glimpse of the celebration! It’s also a unique situation for us as bakers to have our products play such a starring role at the party. We get the satisfaction of knowing we’ve created exactly what the couple wants as their centerpiece.”

The ladies tell us they’re always working on expanding and changing their menu, on hunt for the very best ingredients. “We’re fans of ‘veganizing’ classic flavors and dishes, which is a fun challenge and can result in some relatively rare and exciting items. We also like to get out there and talk to people about what types of items they’d like to see. There are lots of desserts that are hard to find when you a conscious consumer or one with a food allergy and we hope to fill in some of the gaps.”


Why else should you consider Fat Bottom Bakery? They’re eager to work with couples to find the perfect combination of flavors, colors and textures for your wedding. They're also extremely excited about the repeal of Prop. 8 and are happy to be able to take part in celebrations of love in its many forms. They focus on cupcake displays which afford couples the luxury of picking several different flavors of cake to satisfy everyone’s taste buds. With Fat Bottom Bakery, it's all about taking your needs and desires into account and turning out a totally fun, unique and delicious wedding dessert. Just the way we like it.

Vendor Spotlight: Sift Cupcakery, Wine Country


No doubt, cupcakes are all the rage these days. Sift Cupcakery was born in 2008 after the owners weren’t able to find their dream cupcakes for their Sonoma wedding. Was delicious and whimsical looking too much to ask? With so many weddings planned in wine country, they opened their doors and voila! They now have 3 locations: Cotati, Napa and Santa Rosa.

Jordan, Wedding Coordinator for Sift, tells us that weddings are truly the reason they exist: “There isn’t any celebration we love more. We love working with the couples from start to finish, learning about their ideas to seeing the final product."



As for their creative inspirations, Jordan says Sift just loves to create. New flavors, new themes, custom artwork on cupcakes-you name it, they will create it. They've been inspired by movies, Martha Stewart, magic and more.


What can you expect from Sift? Fun, whimsical flavored cupcakes perfectly made for your special day. They can match any décor, theme or monogram for your wedding. They
deliver, set ‘em up, and will just love being a part of your special day.

Vendor Spotlight: Sibby's Cupcakery

Sibby's Cupcakery opened in 2004 with the mission of providing joy and happiness through delicious and beautiful cupcakes. All you need to do is look at her work to get it. Once you taste her cupcakes, you’ll get it even more!

Sibby and her master cupcake elves love contributing to a larger vision and coming up with designs and displays that complement the overall aesthetic of weddings. Wedding planning can be stressful and the last thing that cupcakes should do is cause extra stress. Her goal is to ensure that couples get the wedding cupcakes of their dreams without any hassles.


Customization is Sibby’s specialty. She tells us about an extra fun project, “We recently had a blast doing decorations for a couple who got married on their favorite holiday— Halloween—which happens to be a bakery favorite, as well. We did an assortment of ghosts, skulls and crossbones, jack-o-lanterns and other spooky designs incorporating their monogram and color scheme.” We can only imagine…

So, why do we at Bridebound say yea to Sibby’s Cupcakery for your wedding cupcakes? Well, they use the finest ingredients, everything is baked from scratch each morning, and they have perfected their recipes over the years. Their one-of-a-kind handmade custom decorations enable couples to have an added level of personalization. Sibby’s Cupcakery has intentionally stayed small so that they can focus on quality and customer service. Mostly, we think it’s because they love what they do. Everything they make comes from love.


Just check out their beautiful, delicious creations and you’ll see what we mean:
