    What a cute idea! I love that! Or you could do cupcakes shared into something? What is your theme or style of the wedding?
    The only thing is, depending on your venue and the temperature, you might have to do fondant instead of frosting since you would not want it to melt. However I think it is an adorable idea!!

    I went to a wedding a few years ago where they did this! They had a full size cake on each table but there were different flavors Ok each one. There was a note on the back of the table number listing the different flavors available around the room and encouraging you to mingle and pick your favorite flavor(s). It was cute!

    Alexandra that is exactly our plan! Did they have the cakes on cake stands or just on the table?

    If I remember correctly, they were just on the table. If they were on stands they were very low. I just looked on Facebook to see what I could find from her photos. No pictures of the cake but I did find her table numbers!

    Okay thanks!! It’s really hard to find so many cake stands without paying an arm and a leg so im avoiding that if possible!

    Hey Alea!! This is actually a really cute and fun idea. I think you could get around using a cake stand on each table. Sitting the cake on a round cardboard piece the same size as the cake would work just fine. This should be more cost effective and may come with the cake depending on where you get them from. You could also try checking out Party City for cheaper cake stand options!

    Have you decided on the flavors?

    Thanks! My fiance really wanted it as a way for guests to mingle and get to know one another. It’s like his only request so I really want to make it work well!
