After seeing the need for a high-quality and well thought out venue in central Indiana, we created The Sixpence to host weddings and events with a wide range of aesthetics.

Wedding desserts are one of those details that can be both beautiful and deeply personal. From the cake a couple cuts together for the first time to the sweets guests enjoy throughout the evening, dessert has a way of becoming part of the memories made around a wedding day.

The Sixpence’s October Preferred Vendor of the Month, Pastry Sweet Salty, creates custom cakes and desserts with an emphasis on thoughtful design, handcrafted flavor, and the experience behind every detail. Each creation is made with intention, bringing together beautiful presentation and flavors designed to feel just as special as the celebration itself.

We caught up with the team behind Pastry Sweet Salty to talk about their approach to wedding desserts, what couples should consider when selecting sweets for their day, and what’s ahead for the business.

Before guests ever step into your venue, your dress code gives them a glimpse into the kind of evening and aesthetic you are creating, and helps them arrive feeling confident, comfortable, and appropriately dressed.
