Croquembouche?

in Canada-Ontario
I'm getting married in Vineland (between Grimsby and St. Catharines) and am looking for a french-style patisserie to make a croquembouche instead of a wedding cake. So far, all I can find are patisseries based out of Toronto, and I'm worried that the cost with delivery will drive the price sky-high -- or that an hour an a half on the QEW might be risky for the tower of cream puffs! Does anyone know of anywhere in Halton or Niagara that makes croquembouche?

    If they`re a reputable patisserie, there shouldn`t be a problem with delivery.  And sadly, I think Toronto may be the only place you can get them.  Could you perhaps have someone in your family, wedding party, etc. pick them up?

    Or perhaps consider a macaron tower instead?  I know a great macaron patisserie in Brampton.

    Part of me likes the idea of macarons, and the other part of me feels as though they're verging on becoming overdone. Maybe if they were displayed in a different way, I'd be more open to them? @Jewel224 what's the name of the macaron patisserie you know of?

    I know a great patisserie but unfortunately its in Scarborough.  If you want more info though do let me know.  I know its far from where you're getting married but as pp's suggested maybe someone could bring it for you - or they might be able to deliver for a reasonable fee.    

    good luck!

    Thanks @mstallae ! I'm going to get quotes from the downtown TO ones and see if they're reasonable prices since that's a little closer, but if things get crazy, I'll let you know! :)

    @pumpkinandturkeys - the name of the one in Brampton is called MacaronZ.  Their website is: http://www.macaronz.com/.  Talk to them and they can probably create something original.
