10 Awesome Alternatives to the Traditional Wedding Cake

  |   By Alexandria Maiato

More often than ever these days, couples are looking to incorporate their personalities into as many aspects of their wedding as possible. From renting ice cream trucks and do-it-yourself taco stations, to donning colourful wedding gowns, and holding Star Wars-themed ceremonies, couples aren't shying away from making their wedding days fun and entirely their own.

Your wedding cake is a great way to let who you are shine through to your guests in a wonderfully visual (not to mention, delicious) way.  And we hate to say it, but: not everyone loves cake. Or, perhaps, you're not one for tradition and like to think outside the box.

If you're having a black-tie affair, why not opt for a breathtaking macaroon tower in a range of lovely colours that complement your decor? If you're having more of a rural, rustic affair, why not opt for a sumptuous blueberry pie or stacks of freshly made waffles dripping in maple syrup? That way, you wont miss out on any of the pomp and ceremony and will still be able to cut the first slice with your new hubby!

No matter what kind of wedding your having, we've got some creative alternatives to the traditional wedding cake.
