What style wedding cake?

Thanks! I'm hoping so!

Stunning ..very beautiful.

I'd have the cake and poutine . both are yummy.

That is beautiful! That's going to look (and taste) amazing!

Pics or it didn't happen

I'm not the biggest cupcake fan... so we're just getting a small 2 tier cake (since there's a huge dessert buffet with our dinner)This is the design pic our bakery is working from (but with turquoise ribbon)

I like the idea of having a wedding cake but using cupcakes at each place setting.

I did want cupcakes, And had been the plan until this afternoon when I came across a cake design that I love. Now I need to ponder a little

I am also thinking of a small top cake as a keepsake for our anniversary and cupcakes or push up cakes and cake pops. There are diet concerns for some and although I love the smooth look of fondant but it's definitely the thickness that I am thinking may be too much. Hope you all find that perfect cake!

We have to get a couple gluten free ones as well because my FH's aunt is gluten free!

I'm not a fan of cupcakes really, but that's just me! I like the idea of a cake display in front of the head table. Adds another decor element! If budget is an issue then a smaller cake for display with a sheet cake in the back a great idea!!!!!!!!

oh boy.. hmm cake and poutine.. sounds pretty darn good to me lol

Haha well maybe you could eat half for your 6 month anniversary and half for your 1 year anniversary?

We weren't quite sure what happened with serving the cake but it was not on time. They asked us when we first sat down for dinner if we wanted the sheet cake pre-sliced and we said yes. We were running a bit behind schedule because the dinner service took longer than expected but we told them right before that we were about to cut the cake so they could get the other slices ready to bring out but it just seemed like they were never bringing it. I asked multiple times where it was after we cut the cake, my mom asked and they were just like "it's coming." They ended up serving it at the same time as our late snack (apparently poutine and cake go together!) and at that point some people had left and I think others just didn't realize it had finally been served. The people who did get cake said it was delicious but I wish it had been better served!

We are thinking of doing this as well! I am hoping we might be able to get some gluten free cupcakes in the mix as well since we have some guests with this dietary concern.

Thank you! We actually did have quite a bit leftover (there were some issues with serving the cake) and we were able to save the entire top tier as well as a bunch of extra slices! We gave the extra slices to family and the top tier is currently in the freezer at my aunt's house and we'll pick it up next time we're in town! Haha

Love your cake sam !! and it sounded delish /.. did you freeze some to have for your 1 year anniversary ??

We did a small 2 tier cake and then sheet cake. We're not big cupcake people and I like that you can layer more flavour with a cake. (We did two flavours: cherry chocolate and salted caramel. The salted caramel had layers of caramel cake with a caramel buttercream frosting layer and a chocolate ganache layer in between the cake layers. The cherry chocolate had chocolate cake with alternate layers of chocolate ganache and cherry filling.)

I know that doing a small display cake and then cupcakes underneath has become very popular!

Do you have any ideas on what you want your design to look like?

Not to mention when you go with cupcakes and have multiple flavours .. you get to taste test them all !!!! OMG that was my favourite !!!!

Hi Taylor! I love cupcakes for a wedding I think they're such a great idea! And you can have different flavours I really like Natasha's cake idea since you can have both! You can also take a look at these ideas:

What flavours of cupcake would you like to have?

We are having a 6" cake to do the tradition cake cutting then it will be kept to eat on our one year anniversary ... the rest is cup cakes in various flavours and fillings for our guests!! ours will look kinda similar to the picture !!

Cake idea

No problem!! Everyone always says you need a second tier because you eat it on your 1st anniversary but my FH doesn't really like cake or sweets at all.... So it wasn't worth the extra cost for us! The cupcakes are a big hit now a days to!

Thats a great idea! Never thought of doing it like that! Thanks

I am having 1 6" or 8" cake just one tier for my FH and I to cut and for the the wedding party and us to eat. We will have cupcakes for everyone else and we are doing 3 different flavours so they have an assortment to choose from!
