WAYS TO ELEVATE TO WOW STATUS

  • Placement is everything! Consider placing your cake or dessert display in a prominent location where visibility is easy, like the middle of the dance floor or near the entrance.

2. Pull Inspiration from Your Wedding Invitation:
  • Use your monogram, font style, a border, or pattern from your invitation. It’s a chic way to tie the entire theme together from beginning to end.

5. Floral Flourish:
  • Elevate your cake or desserts with edible and/or fresh flowers. You can go big on impact with floral or add small touches; either will add to the overall cohesiveness of your event.

6. Cultural Coolness:
  • Infuse your culture into the dessert choices with cultural patterns or colors. Consider offering an ethnic favorite like candy or a sweet treat.

7. Traditional Elements:
  • Past trends always make their way back to the scene! Think of things to add that have family meaning, like a cake cutting set or cake topper that have been passed down through generations.

10. Dress to Impress:
  • Take a good look at your wedding gown! Pearls, lace, sequins, patterns, bows… whatever makes a statement on your dress can make a statement on your cake and desserts. It’s the perfect nod to the dress you love so much!
