Cake smashes are the new big thing and everyone is doing them. But they aren’t just for little kids! Sure a cake smash is the perfect way to ring in a first birthday, however people of all ages can get in on the cake smashing fun! If you have allergies, just don’t like cake, or feel like doing something different, be sure to check out non food and cake smash alternatives.

5 Reasons to Book a Cake Smash

1. First Birthday

This is probably the number one reason! But really any of those first couple birthdays is fine. Every little kid looks adorable covered in food and all messy. Now not every child wants to smear the food everywhere, or really even enjoys it, but still seeing you little one all dressed up and attempting to eat food and getting it everywhere is entertaining and you get some adorable pictures out of it as well.

2. Milestone Birthday

Like I said at the beginning, you don’t have to be a kid to enjoy a cake smash! How about a cake smash for turning 30, 40, 50 or above?! You work hard and you enjoy to have some fun too! You don’t have to smear the frosting everywhere, but hey why not!

3. Wedding or Anniversary

There’s a reason the feeding of the cake is a time honored tradition: it’s fun, romantic, and a little naughty. So why not turn your photo session into a cake fight! Everyone’s always dreamed of that high school cafeteria food fight with food a flying and truthfully how fun would it be to finally nail your husband in the face with some frosting (no.. well maybe that’s just me 😉 )

4. Animal Birthday

It may seem strange, but animals deserve to celebrate their birthdays too!! Show me an adorable cat, dog, or mouse in a little birthday hat chowing down on their favorite treat and my heart explodes! Of course your little furry friends has to be ok with wearing hats (mine is not) but this can still be an adorable photo shoot!

5. You Love Cake

Who doesn’t love cake. Or cookies, or sweets in general. A cake smash is the perfect excuse to get down with your bad self and enjoy some of these sweet treats, and get some beautiful, fun pictures in the process.
