Simple/Whole Foods wedding cake

I think it's really about how you dress them up if you don't have a tiered cake. I have a few photos to share that I think are darling!

Last one, I swear!

@Whitney those pics are adorable!

I had a friend who used Publix for her DW cakes, and her mom and guests gushed about them. The bride collected really old school cake toppers on ebay and cool cake stands from vintage stores, and her cake table pictures were adorable! I think as long as the cake is good nobody will comment that you didn't have the "standard" tiered wedding cake.

I think @Whitney is spot on when it comes to having different sizes and cake stands.

Whitney, those are awesome and exactly what I was thinking!! Love them all but especially the first one!

Thanks for the advise Elizabeth, I think you are right!

I'm glad you like it! I had a custom cake topper made on Etsy for a really fair price. You can also find some amazing things at Goodwills. I found some beautiful cake stands there that were originally from Target and we're $3.00 a piece. I bought them for my best friends bridal shower cakes. She kept one and I kept the other afterwards! Oooh I hope you do a big bam when the wedding is over so we can see the final result! Best of luck!

I loooove the tiered cake stand look! I think it's different and whimsical. Check out etsy if you can afford it, WW bride to bride on Facebook, or just local thrift shops.

I haven't but I Loooove the look of the ones Whitney posted. So darling. As we are having a dessert bar, we'll have one small cake under a glass jar, something super simple.

Etsy cake stands are SOOOOO expensive! FH is out of town all weekend so I will have time to shop around at thrift stores and different stores. You too Whitney! Your big day is almost here!! I'm so excited and nervous (16 days away!) for the wedding. I'm not a big look at me kind of person, or like the spotlight on me at all so it will be interesting!

Both my daughter and I did cakes on different cake stands for our wedding, and they worked out well. Obviously, a Whole Foods cake won't look as fancy as a formal wedding cake. But your guests are likely to care about the taste more than the looks.

2d Bride ®, right! :-) Whole foods will do simple decorations, mostly like the ones whitney posted above which is great for my style. The chantilly usually has lots of fruit for decoration which is nice for a fall wedding (harvest?) so that will be part of my decor. Sort of like this but I want a lot more fruit!

Brooklynbride, i love that idea with the apothecary jars. I will def. keep my eyes open for something like that on my hunt this weekend!

What a great variation on a theme. I adore them.
