Reception Dessert - Traditional or Modern?

Modern, we have not decided what we will be doing yet but we definitely will not be doing cake.

I don't really like cake and the whole top tier 1st year anniversary thing grosses me out. I don't want fresh cake let alone year old freezer cake, gross!!

We will have 1 small cake for the cutting tradition but what I really want is a tower of mini cupcakes in a variety of flavours and various Italian pastries (he's Italian).

Traditional wedding cake.

Modern -a brunch reception so no cake!

Neither me or my FH love cake so we will probably go with cup cakes.

Our dinner comes with a dessert but we are doing cake with our late night service, in addition to popcorn and cotton candy.

Not doing the traditional cake. We may do a tier or two (I kind of want the top tier for the 1 year), and I like the tradition of the cake cutting (no face smashing). However we are having a s'mores bar, and probably a few flavours of mini cupcakes.

S'mores Bar

We had a traditional wedding cake!

Modern since I don't really like cake.

Custom donuts for all!

Modern. I honestly can't remember the wedding cake at any of the weddings I've attended. PLUS, I can't imagine spending that much on a cake when our venue includes dessert.

I personally dislike wedding cake and fondant, I’m not big on sweets and neither is my fiancé. So instead of a huge cake, we’re going with a small personalize 8” cake, 130 cupcakes, and 130 cheesecake squares offered by our caterer

Modernish, dinner comes with dessert so just going to eat that instead

At our venue with dinner comes dessert so we will do a cake for us to cut and that is it.

More modern I guess our venue serves dessert as part of the package but we will still have a wedding cake for us to cut and eat ourselves and we are going to do a candy bar.

We are doing a dessert table instead. We will do cupcakes, French macaroons, cake pops, Sugarfina candies etc. It’s not cheaper then a cake, but I like variety... and the way it looks haha

Traditional for us! A cake alllllll the way

I didn't want to do the traditional but it might be ab it of both. Cake for the parents and then diff rustic style deserts

We are doing a small cake for the cake cutting and cake pops for the guests. There is also going to be a donut wall as well as homemade butter tarts. I feel like the cost of a three tier traditional cake is not worth it!

Traditional - but our cake is strawberry shortcake. So it’s not a cake everyone would expect... and it’s soooooo good!!

Modern. We are going to have a small cake because we have a family member that does wedding cakes and offered to do ours for free so free is always better. But we are going to have a large assortment of treats and desserts for the guest since the cake may only serve 50 people.

Modern. We’re skipping the cake and just going with what the venue has for dessert.

Modern. Neither of us like cake all that much, so it seemed like an unnecessary expense. So we are doing a pie table! And I’m also asking my grandmas to bake some chocolate chip cookies.

Modern; We'll be skipping the cake and offering desserts from our venue.

Both! Our cake is a peacock, and there will be cupcakes as a tail. Catering also provides a small desert before hand

We’re having a small cake made to cut and then serving cupcakes. We also have dessert included in our catering package so we are thinking of doing pies as well.

Both!

Small 2 tier cake up top a display for cutting and keeping and then a variety of sweets and treats under for the guests to enjoy!

Going with a cake so traditional

We're going the cupcake route, so closer to modern than traditional.
