When banquet hall glamour meets rustic barnwood panels, you have a fabulous wedding cake table that’s both inspired and unexpected.

Scrumptious!

If you’ve been here before, you know I have a thing for rolling carts. But, using one as a table for a wedding cake? That’s a new twist I hadn’t thought of.

It’s such a unique idea – wheel it around to entice guests and capture those dreamy, photo-worthy moments. Luxurious lace table runners like these will add the perfect finishing touch to a glass cart with gold accents.

9. Red Rose Passion

A show-stopper of note! This dramatic 4-tier cake is smothered in sensational red roses, the flower of love, passion, and romance.

The wedding cake table is minimalist, sprinkled with a few loose petals to enhance the theme, but not distract from the main event.

If you’re concerned that real roses will fade during the event, choose luxurious deep-red silk roses like these that will last forever.

10. Never Ending Story

A long rustic wooden plank as a table and a never-ending wedding cake are sure to have your guests talking for years to come.
