There are plenty of wedding-day “wow” factor opportunities, if you’re into that sort of thing. Between the venue, the dress(es), and the floral arrangements, to name a few, adding drama through jaw-dropping details can be appealing.
But some couples choose a more subtle route, making quiet statements that better suit their tastes. Or, soon-to-be-weds play a balancing act, walking the line between bold and simple.
While there’s nothing wrong with elaborate wedding cake designs (think: towering or colorful), a less intricate option might be more of what you’re searching for. Are you set on preventing your confection from clashing or competing with other aspects of your big day?
Or, are you a “less is more” kind of couple, with an affinity for minimalist and more organic designs? Perhaps your celebration is just casual and not fussy, and you need something fitting for your theme.
Regardless, there’s a cake out there for you, be it modest and reserved, beautifully understated, or short and sweet. There’s something to be said about these simple cakes from real weddings—take a peek for some effortless inspiration.
