We direct the Try Pie bakery program together and get excited about celebrating love! We believe in offering meaningful work for teens in our community, and see the opportunity to provide the perfect dessert for your wedding as a beautiful overlap between two things we love. Both of us had Try Pie's fresh baked mini pies at our own weddings and they've remained a highlight guests still talk about. Thanks for considering us for your big day!

served 5 different flavors of their 3” pies (French silk, key lime, cherry, blueberry, and apple), and they were all delicious. Our guests were raving about the pies! We were extremely satisfied with our decision to go with Try Pie - thanks so much for making our wedding day special!

erry, peach blackberry, raspberry, and pumpkin in the 4 in mini option. They were a HUGE hit at the wedding!! We ordered way too much so people have been asking for seconds. They were delivered the day of the wedding and they were all baked fresh that morning! Seriously phenomenal! We are going to order all our pies for every occasion through Try Pie.

cost-effective than the mini pies. The chocolate silk was a big hit at our wedding and I personally loved the rhubarb raspberry lavender pie. We also served apple and mixed berry. I’ll definitely be buying more pies to celebrate our anniversary and other holidays in the future.

s of the 3 in pies and guests absolutely loved them. We opted for strawberry rhubarb, dutch apple, triple berry and cherry - each flavor was delicious!
