My daughter's wedding cake was so beautiful and delicious. It was made exactly like she wanted after submitting pictures. Delivery and set up of the 3 tiered cake was perfect, even with the flowers placed in the exact spots she wanted. We also ordered gooey butter squares that guests raved about as well. I will definitely order cakes for other occasions from Celebrating Life.

Celebrating Life gave us the dessert of our dreams! We did a dessert bar with a 3 tier cake, bon bons, and cookies. Everyone loved the variety and the amazing taste. Celebrating Life asked for our coordinator's number and was able to coordinate everything themselves so that was one thing off my plate! So professional. We were able to do a tasting with plentiful samples. Highly recommend.
response 10/10/2024
Thanks Brittany! We really appreciate you letting us know you loved your desserts. We were...

Celebrating Life Cake Boutique created the wedding cake of our dreams! They were a pleasure to work with from start to end. They executed the exact cake we had envisioned. The amaretto cake with vanilla buttercream frosting was an absolute hit that all of our wedding guests enjoyed. We are so thankful for Celebrating Life Cake Boutique and could not recommend them enough!

My husband and I recently had our wedding at Chandler hill, we got a cake various cupcakes, gooey butter bars, and turtle cup deserts. Let me start by saying they did an AMAZING job on the cake. The way they decorated it with our cake topper and flowers was way better than I could have imagined! They also have THE BEST gooey butter bars I’ve ever had! We needed a gluten free cupcake and they served it in a container labeled. They were professional and answered any questions I had and super responsive when I needed to make little changes to the desert ordered more than once. Over all it was perfect and their deserts are delicious. Highly recommended using them!

We booked Celebrating Life after loving the vanilla cake with raspberry filling at a friend’s wedding. They made us a stunning 5-tier cake for our own wedding. Everything was the cake tasting to booking was easy, and they were willing to work with our florist to create a beautiful floral cascade. Our guests kept commenting on how delicious the cake was too. Would highly recommend!

BEST GLUTEN FREE CAKE EVER! For all the gluten free brides out there, look no further! Celebrating life cakes provided us with one of the best tasting and best looking cakes we ever could’ve asked for. Not only was the cake gorgeous, it was super tasty and we loved the variety of flavors to choose from. We chose a GF lemon cake with blueberry butter cream and lemon curd. They made a tradition 2 tiered wedding cake, 100% gluten free, and for the rest of our guests we had a non-GF alternative sheet cake in the same flavors. Madison was great to work with, and everything was expertly taken cake of. Thank you!

2 stars is described as below average. Long story short, Celebrating Life Cakes got our order wrong and gave us the wrong cake flavor for all of our cakes we ordered. Continue reading for details... Our wedding is April 2024. We had a in person tasting and initial meeting in August 2023, in this tasting we only tried items for a dessert bar and we had mentioned that we were probably interested in vanilla and chocolate cake to cover our bases. We didn't order our wedding cake to-go tasting until March 2 because we were told we didn't need to finalize all our choices until closer to the date. April 5 I verbally submitted our dessert bar choices along with our cake flavor (vanilla cake with raspberry jam filling). I also had sent a message through the knot on April 9th reconfirming our cake flavor & dessert bar options.
We ordered a two tier cake (serves 62) and 2 sheet cakes serving an additional 68 pieces. The cakes came in vanilla & chocolate cake with some kind of vanilla icing. We had so much left over and it wasn't until we got home with the left overs that we realized none of the cakes were correct.
The owner and wedding coordinator did take responsibility for the mistake and offered to either remake the cakes or a $100 refund. We are disappointed because of few things. We believe that if cake flavors were the raspberry jam filling we would have heard amazing feedback because we believe it is an amazing flavor they offer. Secondly, when I spoke to the wedding coordinator Madyson was unable to suggest a serving size of cake for 180 guests. She kept saying "it's whatever you want" Having been in the service industry I personally believe if a customer is asking for a suggestion for something they have never ordered before especially a larger order- "it's whatever you want" is not an acceptable answer. We had so much cake left over it was ridiculous. It may have been because the guests said it wasn't really good or because we over ordered. We'll never know now.
response 06/11/2024
Again, we are so sorry for leaving out the raspberry jam on the half of your servings that...
were vanilla. Wedding cakes are so very important, and we try to make sure everything is perfect for our couples!
On another note..It is hard to pinpoint just how many slices of cake brides and grooms might need when they are ordering cake along with a dessert bar. You had ordered 250 desserts and 130 slices of cake to be sure, and as it turned out, that was too much. It is difficult to guess who will eat desserts, and who will eat cake. In the same scenario with a different crowd, the cake might be the first to go! We appreciate your response, and wish you all the best!

The cakes are delicious! Everybody loved them. They were relatively easy to work with most of the communication was via email however, they were happy to answer questions over the phone. My only negative would be that we adjusted the cake order for the top tier 2 weeks before the wedding however, when the cake was passed out, the top-tier was the original flavor

Celebrating Life was my top choice for creating the wedding cake for my August 2023 wedding. I have loved their cakes for years— the icing and the cake itself is always so amazing, so they were the obvious choice for the most important dessert of the day! We asked for a small two tier cake for photos and cutting, and then served sheet cakes for the rest. I had a very specific vision in mind for the decoration, and they made it come to life exactly as I wanted! I heard from all our guests that the cake was delicious.

We had no idea what we were looking for in a wedding cake when we first made our tasting appointment, in design or flavor. The coordinator was super helpful in answering all of our questions, and the amazing cake flavors they provided made it difficult for us to pick our favorites. In the end we chose to do half and half of German chocolate and vanilla with raspberry filling (highly recommend). I received so many compliments from the guests about our choice of dessert, and the cake looked absolutely beautiful on our wedding day. I can't wait to return for our first anniversary!

Celebrating Life Cake Boutique did an outstanding job! I brought them an idea the designer hadn't tried before but had been wanting to try! I was excited by how excited she was to make the cake!
On the big day, they delivered and set up my cake and treats. They had platters I rented that were beautiful with my décor. I forgot flowers for the cake! They didn't stress though! They figured out how to get flowers on my cake without a worry!
The cake and treats were cleared out by the end of the night! We had a little bit of the cake left to take home, but the guest LOVED it!!
The boutique is very cute as well! I did not have my bridal shower there but I would highly suggest it! I've attended bridal showers there and its absolutely adorable!

My (now) husband has celiac and this is a bakery that we could trust. Their gluten cake is THE BEST cake that I have ever had (with or without gluten), so it was a no brainer. They have so many options for cake and desert bar options that can be made gluten free and each and every one are out of this world good. Everyone that I worked with was so kind and understanding. We had a totally gluten free wedding and no one had any idea thanks to the Celebrating Life Team :)

Celebrating Life exceeded all our expectations for our wedding cake and dessert table! We ordered a small two tier cake with several dessert bar items (mini pies, bon bons, gooey butter and dessert shooters). Our guests cannot stop raving about how awesome everything was!!! Everything was perfectly delicious and absolutely beautiful! I really love that they offer different cake stands and dessert platters to rent to go with any decor! They also can make signs to place on the table so guests know what items are available which was so nice to not have to worry about. Everything was so easy and there were so great to work with in the process. Overall it was an outstanding experience and we look forward to using them for our cake and dessert needs in the future!

We used Celebrating Life Cake Boutique for our wedding in September, and our cake turned out so beautifully! We asked for florals done in vibrant colors, and it ended up matching our wedding decor so well. As for the taste, it was DELICIOUS! We taste tested multiple bakeries before choosing Celebrating Life Cakes, and theirs was by far the best quality cake with the best flavors! They even let us alternate flavors between the layers in each tier, which made for a fun surprise at the wedding. Their shop is also decorated in such a fun way! I would definitely recommend this bakery to anyone looking for a special occasion cake!

I used Celebrating Life Cake Boutique as my vendor for cake and desserts! They provided exactly what we wanted. There was a little mix up in which trays we wanted to use for the day so make sure you let them know way in advance if you have a specific style you like. The cake itself was perfection from the look to the taste. I received so many compliments. We used three different flavors on each tier: vanilla cake with raspberry filling, yellow cake with milk chocolate mousse filling, and red velvet cake with cream cheese filling. Clearly we were indecisive during the tasting! They made the process very smooth between adding the decor we wanted to the cake, delivery, and set up. They are affordable and you will not go wrong using them for your wedding day.

We are so pleased with Celebrating Life Cake Boutique! They were easy to work with, reasonably priced, and most importantly, created a beautiful and delicious cake. My husband is very picky but he said their carrot cake is one of the best we ever had. We also had a chocolate tier with chocolate ganache and the vegan vanilla with raspberry filling--all three super delicious. Plus they delivered the cake on a Sunday (something not all vendors would do), customized desserts for us (macarons, chocolate covered strawberries, and delicious keto chocolate chip cookies for our sugar-free guests), and provided beautiful dessert platters and signage. I absolutely recommend them for anyone looking for their wedding cake in the St. Louis area.

They were so organized, thoughtful, and made our cake feel like it was their top priority even though we only ordered a smaller two tiered cake. They also knocked our design idea out of the park! We felt like the pricing was fair for how great the product was! Can’t wait to get our one year anniversary cake from them! :)

We ordered desserts from Celebrating Life to go with our wedding cake that we ordered from another vendor. We bought chocolate covered strawberries, brownies and gooey butter bites. All of the desserts were gone so I take it that's a good sign! The chocolate covered strawberries had blue stripes on them to go with our colors.

What a dream to work with Sue and her team! We had a non-traditional vision, and Celebrating Life Cakes was able to cater to what we wanted. The cupcake bouquet we picked for our dessert bar centerpiece was stunning (and delicious) and everything was a hit! We got so many compliments all night long, and her dad who came out to set up the table did such a great job. Absolutely hassle-free, great communicators, and already looking for an excuse to hire them again!

Celebrating Life did my wedding cake, and oh my gosh my husband and I couldn't have been happier!!! We contacted a lot of bakeries during our wedding planning process, and Celebrating Life was extremely responsive and helpful from the very start. From the very first bite from their tasting box, we knew we didn't need to look any further! All of their cakes and fillings were so delicious, it was nearly impossible to pick, but my husband and I ultimately went with a two-tier cake-- the top tier was lemon cake with lemon curd filling, and the bottom tier was strawberry cake with chocolate mousse filling. I lost count of how many guests approached me to say it was the best cake they had ever had, with several engaged couples asking for the bakery name! I also rented a cake stand and had my cake delivered on the day of my wedding, and there were absolutely no issues with that either. It went off without a hitch!
I absolutely have to thank Celebrating Life for their patience, compassion, and kindness during my wedding planning process, as well! Due to COVID I had to cancel my 2021 wedding date and move it to 2022, and Celebrating Life never once batted an eye, despite the fact that I'm sure they had their own struggles during the pandemic.
If you're still looking for bakery, stop looking here! They're amazing and I can't thank them enough for their part in giving me the wedding of my dreams!

From the very beginning, I was 100% pleased with Celebrating Life Cake Boutique! From the tasting to the wedding, everything was wonderful. Heather was great to work with; she was knowledgeable, super friendly, and communicative. She really made the planning process a breeze. The cake turned out perfectly and was EXACTLY how I envisioned it. And not to mention, absolutely delicious. I received an endless amount of compliments from my guests about how much they enjoyed the cake. One of my guests loved the cake so much that she even took some leftover cake on the plane ride home with her. Another amazing perk of working with Celebrating Life Cake Boutique is that my husband and I get a free 1st anniversary cake! So now, we can get a fresh cake on our anniversary instead of eating a year old, frozen one!

If I could give more stars I would! This was one of the best decisions for my wedding. The cake was a dream - looks and taste. They helped me surprise my spouse with a 3D boat grooms cake! I had so many complements on both cakes! They were so professional, fun to work with, and we had so much fun at our tasting. I drive out of my way to get desserts here regularly! Thank you so much for the part you played in our wedding!

Celebrating Life could not have been any easier to work with. We worked with Heather, and she was extremely helpful! She listened to our idea of a simple yet elegant cake, and sketched the perfect cake in like 5 minutes. The real thing looked identical to her drawing! We also had a dessert bar, and many guests told us how much they loved the variety. I also heard that some people stowed some of the desserts to take home for later! The petit fours were my absolute favorite - for one, they were delicious, and two, we got to have a mix of them in our wedding colors and an autumn theme.

These beautiful cakes that Celebrating Life made for our wedding were literally the icing on the cake for our reception!
They captured the Japanese details that we wanted to share and highlight in our wedding cake including a Seigaiha pattern which literally means 'blue sea and waves', symbolizing power and resistance, key elements of Japanese culture. A blue floral design represented the Asian porcelain ginger jars that were also a part of our floral centerpieces. The top tier of our cake had the Japanese characters of our last name inscribed.
The Busch Stadium grooms cake was a surprise for my husband a the BIGGEST hit at our wedding! The intricate details on the stadium were amazing and a true show stopper!

The cakes were delicious. We did a vanilla with vanilla buttercream filling and chocolate with chocolate fudge filling. They also did cookies for us too. Everything was delivered on time and exactly what we requested. Depending how much you order they will provide a first year anniversary cake for you!

The prices were fair, and the wedding cake decorator that I dealt with the whole way was wonderful(Heather). She was always quick to respond, and so patient and helpful! Also, the cake was delicious! The only thing that didn't happen was we didn't get the cake box that we requested. All in all no way that would not make me recommend this bakery. I truly would recommend this place to any bride/groom that is looking to make there lives easier while planning a wedding, and hoping their vendors come through.

We loved our cake from Celebrating Life Cake Boutique! It looked beautiful and tasted delicious. We had our initial tasting and design meeting with Heather. She was kind and clearly captured our vision for our wedding cake. We dropped off our cake topper a few days before the wedding and rented a stand from the vendor as well. All of the details came together as planned. Celebrating Life Cake Boutique was the perfect fit for our wedding cake!

We used Celebrating Life for our wedding and so happy we did! We got a small two-tiered cake and also had a dessert bar for our guests. The options to choose from were amazing and everything tasted wonderful! They came and set up our dessert bar for us and it was so beautiful!! We also get an anniversary cake which I appreciate so we don’t have to freeze the cake. Definitely recommend for your wedding cake and dessert bar needs!

Heather at Celebrating Life was fantastic. She was very efficient with our 1 on 1 meeting, let us try multiple different flavors of cake and frosting, and answered all of our questions. I had a vague idea of what I wanted the cake to look like and she helped me fill in the gaps. It looked and tasted great! We're already looking forward to our 1 year anniversary cake in one year.

We had a three tier cake for our wedding. It was exactly as I had envisioned it and also tasted great. I got a lot of compliments from about our cake and it was all gone by the end of the night.
