Sweets and Sprouts

Gadsden, Alabama
Sweets and Sprouts is a local bakery on Noccalula Mountain that's very popular in Gadsden! The owner apprenticed at a specialty wedding cake shop in Washington DC, before going to culinary school and opening her bakery here in town. Besides wedding cakes, she puts out a menu once a month with the seasonal treats she's making, and is typically open from 8 am to whenever she sells out. This frequently happens before noon!
Cothran's Bakery
Gadsden and Boaz locations
Cothran's Bakery originated here in Gadsden, in 1962! They originally were a donut shop, but over the last 60ish years have been able to expand both their locations and their baked goods. They now have multiple bakeries throughout Etowah County (including two right in Gadsden) and are known in the area for their wedding cakes.
Valor Bakery
Oneonta, Alabama
Valor Bakery specifically does wedding and event cakes and catering! They are a family owned business based in Blount County, and deliver all of their cakes and goods rather than having a physical storefront. They are another one that has been in business 30+ years!
The Alabama Pizza Company

Rainbow City, Alabama
Okay, these guys aren't the ones to go to for a custom, fancily designed wedding cake (as far as I know) BUT they do have the very best cheesecake I have ever had in my life, and they're right in Rainbow City. This is coming from someone who had 5 different Cheesecake Factory cheesecakes at their own wedding, so...
Edgar's Bakery
Trussville, Alabama
Edgar's is a favorite throughout Alabama! The closest location to us in Gadsden is the Trussville Edgar's, but I believe they typically do their cake testings at their Homewood location. Their bakery originated in Birmingham in 1998, and has expanded throughout the state since to become a well-known go-to. They help with cake design, and also offer wedding cake stand rentals.
MEET SARAH
Gadsden, Alabama Wedding Photographer
Based in Gadsden (but frequently photographing from Birmingham to Huntsville!) I go into every wedding day with the knowledge that your wedding photos are some of the only photos that stick around generationally — they are a critical part of the story your family will learn about you! I consider it’s my responsibility and privilege to help tell that story honestly and elegantly.
You should probably know: I will cry during your dad's speech. I will be getting down on the dance floor with your guests. I'll help you plan intentional time with your partner and closest friends and family on your wedding day — and step back so that you can experience those core memories without interruption. I'll guide you through portraits and wedding prep, work closely with your other vendors to make the magic happen, and capture every moment of your wedding day in all its glory.
If that's the kind of wedding photographer you're looking for...
You're in the right place.
