1. Half & half

If you and your partner can’t decide, or have two different interests, why not capture both on one cake.

2. Calligraphy cake

Why not combine your favourite quote with your cake? Calligraphy cakes are one of our favourite trends at the moment!

3. Boho

Add wildflower cuttings to your cake to make a gorgeous effect like the one below…

4. Projection Mapping

We’ve seen projection mapping on buildings and at events, but we first saw it on a cake on Disney’s Fairytale Weddings and we were obsessed.

5. Themed

If you’re having a themed wedding, or even if you’re not but you and your partner love something in particular, then why not show everyone by using your cake. Love Game of Thrones, a dragon cake like this one would be perfect!

6. Add a cake topper

A cute and stylish cake topper can make even the plainest cake look extra special, just like this gorgeous one from WallfrogGraphics

…or get a more fun cake topper that looks like you and your other half…

7. Donuts

If you’re not cake people, then maybe a donut tower will suit you better. Who doesn’t love donuts!

8. Cheese

…and if you’re not into sweet stuff and prefer a more savoury dessert, then maybe a cheese tower would be perfect for you both instead.

And when your cake is cut, let your guests take them home with cute boxes like these gorgeous ones from hooraydays
