Hey there! I'm Chassidy, the owner and baker behind Takes the Cake - your go-to spot for mouthwatering treats in the Roanoke Valley. As a self-taught baker with a passion for perfecting recipes, I've curated a collection of buttercream cakes, & dessert bar treats that I love to eat and I’m proud to share with you - all baked fresh to order. With over 20 years of baking experience under my apron, I decided to turn my passion into a full-time gig in 2022 - and I'm so glad I did! I take pride in creating desserts that are as delicious as they are beautiful, and I can't wait to make your special events extra tasty and stunning.

We were thrilled with our wedding cake from Takes the Cake! Emily was so easy to work with and extremely responsive throughout the planning process. We sent her some inspiration photos for the cake design and she perfectly executed the vision. The final product was gorgeous and tasted incredible - all our guests raved about it! She really captured exactly what we wanted for our special day. The cake was so good! We'd highly recommend Takes the Cake for any couple looking for a talented, communicative baker who can make wedding dreams come true with a beautiful, delicious cake. We look forward to enjoying their creations for years to come at future anniversary celebrations!

Awarded Best of Zola
Even before our first meeting, we knew Henry had a special way of telling a couple's love story through his amazing videos! We can't quite put our finger on it...but there was a certain unique, but timeless aesthetic that really drew us to him. After our first meeting, it was like talking with an old friend. Henry was super friendly and really took the time to explain his process to us. In addition, we answered all of our questions with ease! On the day of our wedding, Henry was always 100% present and really took the time to reach out to our vendors to communicate any video needs, which we appreciated a lot! When we got the final video back - we teared up because it was so beautiful and exceeded our expectations! Henry captured all of our memorable moments during our wedding, and the edits were fantastic. We got a full cut of our ceremony and reception, and still watch it every day! We 100% recommend Henry if you're looking for a wedding videographer! Between his friendly attitude, professionalism and artistic vision - your wedding video will be one to remember and watch all the rest of your days. We can't thank Henry enough for everything he did for us!

After reluctantly accepting the fact that I needed to hire a wedding coordinator (because there is just too much to worry about on your wedding day to be everywhere at once even if you want to be!), Lauren was our first choice. She is so kind and generous! She offers great value for the cost-benefit ratio - it was well worth the investment! She consistently went above and beyond and exceeded our expectations. I would not hesitate to recommend The Planning Bee!

I have unofficially been the family photographer for years. Whether it be formals or family reunions, I’m usually the one behind the camera. The two things I value most are my family and our memories. What better way to engrain a memory than having it in a timeless photo? That leads me to where I am today! I am here to learn, grow and along the way help other people freeze their memories in time, as I do my own. When I’m not behind the camera or with my nose in a book, I am with my two fur babies; Sadie and Nash; my life partner and best friend, Isaiah; or my family. Thank you for stopping by and I hope to meet you soon!

Kelsey is the BEST photographer! I knew we would choose her after browsing through her portfolio, we fell in love with her work! Kelsey is super professional and also super sweet. She is very patient and is a great communicator. Very quick to give you sneak peeks! We are beyond grateful for her taking the time to capture our special day, all of the small moments we find/found big to us to the big moments. We will definitely be using her in the future for any photoshoot needs as well as recommending her to everyone!

We had Hogan and Cole capture our two day wedding (Vietnamese Tea ceremony and western ceremony). I haven’t gotten the edited videos back yet (it’s only been 2 weeks) but I’m sure they’ll be amazing. Hogan and Cole were such a pleasure to work with! They were professional and fun. They sent me the beautiful photo from the water lantern remembrance ceremony and the behind the scenes shots from our wedding was fun to watch. Hogan was also killing it on the dance floor with us. So much fun! Neil was also great at communicating leading up to the wedding and after. The final edited video was amazing. They included everything we wanted. And the extra money for the raw footage is 10000% worth it! Thanks so much guys!

James is absolutely amazing! We hired James a little over a year ago for our wedding! We were not getting married in our hometown so we decided to find someone in the town would get married in! We had our Engagement session with James last year in June in Roanoke Virginia. We were nervous before going, because sometimes the first session with a new photographer can be a little uncomfortable. Ours was FAR from it! We had the absolute best time! We laughed a lot and James was so fun to work with! Not to mention the pictures we got back from it were absolutely incredible. I could not recommend James more! Before our wedding James kept in touch and up to date with everything! This helped ease my anxiety before our big day. James arrived ahead of schedule on our wedding day and got started immediately! He is by far our favorite photographer that we have worked with and we will definitely be making trips to Roanoke in the future just to book sessions with him because yes we love him that much! We got our wedding pictures back and they are absolutely amazing and we couldn’t have asked for better! We highly recommend booking James! You will not be disappointed at all! He is simply the best!

Flower Moxie – Do-It-Yourself Wedding Flowers 

4.8

  • Florist
  • Starts at $350
  • Serves Salem, VA

In 2013, 8-year wedding veteran Amy McCord Jones realizes she wouldn't be able to afford to hire her own floral services if she was a bride. Then, Amy discovers that there is basically zero help available for DIY brides. No flower recipes. No instructions. No access to florist-grade blooms. Rude. So she launches Flower Moxie! Flower Moxie remains a humble, tucked-away small business out of Oklahoma City. We don’t zoom around on scooters in some fancy high-rise. We stock an average kitchen with canned wine and Aldi chips and listen to true crime podcasts while photographing curvy ranunculus. Join us. There’s cake, hugs, and acceptance here.

Awarded Best of Zola
Because of all the florals already there due to the nature of the venue, and all the florals and plants they filled in, I didn’t feel the need to have a ton of florals, so I did them myself! I found Flower Moxie here on Zola and they were so great! If you are thinking about DIY’ing your florals, I would definitely recommend looking into Flower Moxie! They have some set packages you can chose from, but I upgraded to the highest personalized package and it was so worth it. I got to have a phone call with the florist and they put together a custom package, and they definitely killed it, the flowers were exactly what I had in mind. There were so many resources and they went through everything so well I felt so prepared and we had almost no issues putting all the florals together. All of our florals still looked fresh and beautiful on our wedding day, and some of the florals in our arch arrangements lasted WEEKS. A word of caution though: it is definitely a lot of work, so just ensure that you have enough time in town before your wedding (i.e. you can’t fly in the day before your ceremony, if you are traveling to that location) and enough people to help you (for putting together, transporting and anything day of). I actually really enjoyed getting to do my florals myself, and would highly recommend if you are creative and DIYing your wedding!
