You are planning your wedding and you have your hall,
caterer, Church, flowers, dresses, and tuxes. Invitations have been
ordered, and now you are looking for the perfect wedding cake to
showcase at your reception. This will sit on a table of its own and be
included in pictures, so you want it to be beautiful and special.
The
decorations and types are so vast and beautiful that you are having a
hard time trying to choose what you want. Start by looking at your
wedding; is there a theme? Is it casual, traditional, or very formal
and elegant wedding? Keep this in mind as you look at cake styles and
you are sure to choose the right one.
You can go online and find
any style of cake with the perfect decorations to meet your wants and
needs. There are the Traditional Wedding Cakes that are beautiful, and
still the most popular. There are also many new styles just as elegant
and beautiful. The art of wedding cake making is so advanced, with new
pans for all of the different ideas being made all of the time.
Cake
toppers have changed over the years and you do not have to have the
traditional bride and groom toppers. You might want a heart, bells,
dove, or an untraditional bride and groom. You can have cakes in many
shapes and themes like stacked wedding gifts, a heart, and even shaped
like the bride and groom. One really pretty on I saw was a bride and
groom descending a staircase that is made going spiral around the cake,
which is very inventive and unique.
Real flowers are a great
decoration and are becoming more popular with brides. They are simple
yet elegant. There are cakes with minimal décor like a single bow on
the top tier made with frosting and the Ribbons streaming down sides of
the cake made of fondant or frosting. It is a beautiful and simple way
to decorate a wedding cake.
Flavors can be any kind, and mixed as
well to match the tastes of all your guests. The colors of frosting no
longer have to be white. The frosting can be done in the colors of the
wedding or even match a theme such as a Christmas wedding.
There
are wedding decorations to fit any budget and any taste. Have in mind a
type of cake, flavors, the number of people you need to feed, and bring
your cake topper when you order the cake. Your cake designer will work
with you on getting it right.
You can change it up and use a more
modern design, or even go with your own. A unique cake is often the
talk of the wedding, after the wedding gown of course. The cake is
usually one of the lesser expenses for the work that is involved in
creating it.
I have looked in awe of some of the creations of wedding cakes that have been made. The decorations are so advanced and it is a true art. The patience that goes into making the tiny details and the perfect florals, and realistic decoration aspects are tremendous. Make the best choice for you and enjoy your wedding day.
