A Landmark Announcement about Wedding Cake Stands
Where do You Put the Wedding Cake? On a Stand, of Course!
People notice the wedding cake at a reception more than you realize. Yours is simply wonderful!! But even with the loveliest confection centerpiece in the world, the cake stand can make a tremendous difference in the look and stability of your cake.
There are standard types and then there are remarkably striking wedding cake stands that bring out the beauty and theme of your reception decor.
Choosing a Wedding Cake Stand
Even with multiple tiers and delightful cake accents, a decorative stand can mean the difference between plain and exquisite. There are several things to consider when choosing a cake stand.
How Tall is Your Cake?
First, know how many tiers your cake will have and how it will need to be arranged on the reception table. You might need a cake stand that holds three tiers or one that holds four or five.
Material
Next, choose the stand material. There are various sturdy materials such as space age plastic or crystal. There are silver plate stands and pearl stands with highlighted gold and silver accents, which are lightweight, but heavy duty.
For stacked wedding cakes, there are fluted cake stands or scalloped stands made of silver plate material. If you want something really unique, try acrylic tubes with the cake stand and add fresh or silk flowers, sparkling lights (battery-operated), clear marbles, or other decorative accents to match your reception decor.
Don't Stop Here!!
As you are shopping, you'll discover many other types and shapes so you can easily find one to suit your wedding theme.
Some cake stands come with accessories such as staircases, candles, scroll stands, fountains, ribbons, revolving turntables, and other items.
There are also many accessories to decorate the cake such as trellises, arches, mini chapels, hearts, gates, crosses, chapel windows, mini gazebos, and mini accent lights.
These along with a beautiful cake topper can really make your wedding cake shine.
Mix and Match These Holders for Wedding Cakes to Your Other Catered Decor
If you're able, it's a good idea to get a fountain stand for punch or champagne that matches or looks similar to your cake stand. This makes it easier to coordinate your reception decor.
With all the options available, it's easy to see how the right wedding cake stand can be used to highlight the vibrant colors of your cake and amaze your guests. Now it's time to let them eat cake!!
