Your wedding day will be one of the most memorable and cherished days of your life. You will certainly want your big day to be one of a kind, and you may even choose to write your own vows, but there are a number of other ways that you can make your big day even more original without your even realizing it. One of these ways is to design your very own wedding cake. This is something you and your fiancé can do together. Why settle for an established design that you’ve seen in a brochure when you can arrange to have one which reflects who the bride and groom are as a couple.
The cake might not be high on your list of wedding worries, what with things like invitations, bridesmaid dresses, and food to serve. But most of your big decisions will probably not be made as a couple anyway; the bride and groom often have family members interfere. So actually the cake can be the one thing you do as a couple. Your relatives may feel a traditional white wedding cake is the best option, but while these cakes are certainly beautiful (and delicious) they are not necessarily unique in design. Although you can always alter them for a less regular look.
Wedding cake designers can offer you guidance on how to create your cake, for example you can create a modern twist on a classic style, but it’s best if you and your partner have an idea in mind before you begin. That’s not to say that you must have everything perfectly planned out, after all, that’s where the creative mind of a talented cake designer shines, but it’s best to have a basic idea of what you want, like if you want your cake big and grand or small and sweet. Remember that the cake is most likely going to have to feed all your hungry dinner guests too.
You might be wondering to yourself how exactly you and your spouse to be can make something like a cake an original design that you both approve of. This can be done by simply thinking of what you have shared together throughout your relationship. The cake figurines need not be the regular bride and groom statues, they can be as offbeat and quirky as you like. The cake can be a funky unconventional shape (although structurally possible of course) and you decorate it with whatever you like.
A common misconception is that wedding cakes must be white. On the contrary, they can be iced with whatever colors you wish. Another great way to make your cake a shared experience is to fill it with flavors that you and your fiancé both enjoy. You can be as creative as you want with the flavor, even if it means creating a taste that your guests might not collectively enjoy. But what does it matter if they don’t, this just means more cake for you and your partner. Remember it’s YOUR day.
The wedding cake may seem a trivial part of the wedding, but it’s actually one of the most memorable parts of your day and everyone will be waiting to see it. The bride and groom’s first act as man and wife is cutting the cake so make sure it’s everything that YOU and your fiancé want it to be. It should be a memorable, beautiful, and delicious symbol of the beginning of a long and happy marriage to each other.
