I’m going to be part of my very first wedding expo ever!!
This July 4th, I’ll be at the Northland Expo Wedding 2026 at MacKay Stadium in Whangarei, NZ… and honestly, I almost didn’t do it. The idea of putting myself out there like this makes me so nervous. But at the same time, it feels like such a big step for me and my little baking business. Well growing is a little bit scary...but exciting!!
I keep thinking back to when I first started baking in Mexico, just for fun, sharing desserts with my family and friends. So many times (even now, to be honest 😂) things didn’t turn out the way I wanted… but I never gave up. I’d just try again. And little by little, things started getting better. That’s when people began telling me, “you should sell them!” and I remember thinking… really? you think so? haha
This journey of becoming a baker here in NZ hasn’t been easy. Every order, every request from my customers, every “can you make this?” has pushed me to figure things out, to be creative, and to trust myself more.
So this expo feels like the next challenge… and also something really exciting. Being surrounded by so many amazing vendors and creatives in the wedding industry? I already know it’s going to be inspiring.
No matter what happens that day (I mean… hopefully I sell many cakes), I already feel proud of myself for saying yes to this opportunity.
