Wedding Cake Ideas - A Guide To Choosing The Perfect Cake

by Vicki Churchill


Wedding cakes are probably one of the most thought about aspects when planning a wedding. When considering the various ideas for a wedding cake it is becoming more popular to choose something much more personal and in turn gives you the opportunity design a wedding cake that corresponds with the theme of the day, and more importantly your personality.

Some of the most popular wedding cake ideas include personalization and custom designs. It is even possible to have your wedding cake made to match your wedding dress.

Although most wedding cake ideas consist of a three tiered design with white icing, bold colours are becoming increasingly popular. These days you are not simply limited to just white and ivory. You can now choose vibrant coloured wedding cakes bursting with personality that are all the rage and become a real feature and focal point at a wedding.

You may decide that your wedding cake ideas should make a statement about the backgrounds of the two people who are getting married. Incorporating some form of cultural traditions such as Chinese characters into your wedding cake ideas will make the cake personal and unique for the happy couple.

Cakes can be designed and made in a number of ways, you may decide to leave your wedding cake ideas with a professional or to save cash you could even make your own.

Think about both your tastes, interests and personalities when putting together your wedding cake ideas. Remember the cake is for the bride and the groom so taking on your partner’s wedding cake ideas may be difficult but very necessary.

If you can not agree on a design one way to compromise would be to have a wedding cake made with four tiers, two that represent the bride and two that represent the groom.

If you are having a small wedding reception then you can be more creative with your wedding cake ideas as the cake will not have to be given to many people. Generally the more elaborate the design the smaller the cake will be.

Although traditionally wedding cakes normally have flowers somewhere in the design this is not essential. Do not feel obliged to stick with tradition, now is the time to create something personal and unique, something that the bride and groom will remember for a lifetime.

Furthermore do not be afraid to break away from tradition altogether and go for a chocolate fountain or fairy cakes. At the end of the day whatever suits you and your partner together with your budget should be what you end up going for. If money is no option employ the services of a professional cake designer to create an amazing design or alternatively if you are on a tight budget have a go at making the cake yourself with the help of your family and friends.
