How to Choose a Wedding Cake Design

 

After the bride and groom’s outfits, the venue, and the guest list, a wedding cake is one of the most important parts of a wedding. It plays a big role in your big day.

It’s essential for photos and videos and as well as this it’s got to feed your entire wedding party. Making sure it’s got the right look and it’s the right size is crucial.

With all this in mind, you will want to take your time when choosing your wedding cake design. Did you know that the average wedding cake costs around $400?

This is an essential part of the wedding planning process and one you’ll want to get right. Read on to learn how to pick a wedding cake you’ll want to say “I do” to.

Seek Advice About the Size

You don’t want to get a wedding cake that’s too small, but you need to make sure that everyone who wants one at your wedding gets a slice. This is a tricky thing to balance. The best way forward is to seek professional help.

Try speaking with your wedding caterer, a friend who’s already gotten married, or your wedding planner to see what they would advise for a party of your size. The last thing you want is for there not to be enough to go around.

Take Your Time With the Design

There are countless different types of wedding cakes you can choose to have at your wedding. Keep in mind that photographers love to take photos during the cake cutting, which is somewhat the star of the show for that period. This means you’ll need to love how it looks.

Try not to follow trends, but pick something that you really like. Do you usually go for more simple design concepts or are you a maximalist? Discuss with your significant other to make sure you’re on the same page.

Finding Your Flavor

How it tastes is almost as important as the look of the cake. While tradition dictates that wedding cakes should be fruit cakes, these days you can really have whatever flavor you like. If you want a chocolate cake then a chocolate cake you shall have!

Try to think about what a majority of your guests will like. Remember, it’s not only you that will be eating it! You should also take into account whether any of your guests have any kind of food allergy and plan accordingly.

Choose the Perfect Wedding Cake Design

You’d be surprised how much your wedding cake design and flavor matter. So don’t rush your decision. Make sure you’re 100% happy with your choice before putting in an order.

By following all the guidelines mentioned above, you’ll be sure of how to go about choosing the cake for your big day!
