Event Décor Ideas – Wedding Cake Displays

Considering that your wedding cake will be on display for the bulk of your wedding reception, it should be considered as part of your event design plan. In other words, your wedding cake should be thought of as one of the focal points of your reception.

There is nothing more beautiful and captivating than going over the top for your wedding cake display, especially if you want to add some oomph to your reception design. One of my favorite ways to display a wedding cake is to set it up under a wedding canopy that is draped with fabric. Have a look at the example featured below!

The cake setup above was created with a pipe and drape system. In addition, the cake table was lined and draped with a couple layers of fabric and decorated with a load of flowers. For more pizzazz, this designer added hanging strings of flowers. This is definitely a “WOW” factor.

What I love most about this cake display is that it is set up against a very beautifully design wall, which serves as a captivating backdrop for this cake display. The wall itself along with the lighting is bound to draw guests to the details of this display.

Finally, this wedding cake display is a great example of how a fabric backdrop and few uplights can go a long way. This design is rather simple and elegant, but full of drama as it makes a very powerful statement. Wouldn’t you agree?

There are numerous ways you can display your wedding cake, so please feel free to be creative with your cake display, after all it is a focal point and your guests can ooh and ah over your design.
