36 Ideas for Dressing Up Your Wedding Cake with Fresh Florals
September 27, 2016 | Junebug Weddings
Besides you and your new spouse, of course, your wedding cake is the showstopper of your reception! Wedding cake trends come and go, but a sprinkle of fresh florals will always be our favorite way to dress up the sweetest part of your dessert table. Whether your cake is one or six tiers, iced with white frosting or totally naked, flowers are the perfect way to take it to the next level. These floral-adorned cakes are sure to prove that getting your florist and cake maker to team up is one seriously amazing marriage!
Small Cakes with Bold Blooms
Whether you’re sharing a tiny cake for your elopement or intimate affair, or you decide on a small cake to accompany an array of alternative desserts, your little wedding cake shouldn’t hide in the shadows! With the addition of gorgeous florals, these small cakes come with a big punch.
What these cakes lack in icing, they sure make up for in flowers! A beautiful wedding cake doesn’t have to mean layers of frosting or fondant. Especially for forest, rustic, and whimsical weddings, a naked or partially-iced cake fits the nontraditional atmosphere while fresh flowers add a natural flair!

Nothing says wedding cake like tiers of white icing! For your classic celebration, add a layer of elegant visual interest to your traditional cake with a few gorgeous white blooms. Ask your florist for their favorite flowers in white and watch your cake go from so-so to sophisticated!
Like any other area of your wedding décor, floral design is a great way to infuse your personality into your wedding. A great florist can help you create a cohesive color and texture story throughout your day, from your bouquet to your centerpieces, to your wedding cake!
I’ve always been a fan of fresh flowers on wedding cakes. I especially love your “bold blooms.” They make a big WOW statement without overshadowing the cakes. Thanks for sharing.
