Cake table

LittleSnowflake, 24 June, 2014 at 16:52 Posted on Planning 0 11

Our cake lady has advised us to dress up our cake table, to prevent it from blending in with everything else. She mentioned table swag and placing a few items on the table.

What is everyone else doing? OM's what did you do? I really have no idea what we could do.

    What about pictures of yourselves from different years?

    We are just having our cake on the table and not doing anything to dress the table. My sister is making my cake for me

    I bought some table linen and bits and bobs;


    I've got wedding photos of the grandparents and parents to add to the table along with the bouquets.

    Bunting on the table edge, and my bouquet.

    I think it's typical for the bride to place her bouquet near the cake and/or guest book once they've finished taking some photos with it.

    I'm having some swag round it and a balloon arch just to make it stand out a bit because my mum is making my cake and want to show it off

    This is why I'd like some bits to decorate the table , It needs to stand out as £500 for a cake to sit there and not get commented on is a heck of a lot of money!

    We are having several cakes (not all real too much cake) so i hope everyone will notice the table of cakes lol.

    but we were looking at a simple table cloth to match our theme and possibly a few daisies scattered across the table

    My reception venue is a barn, and they have gorgeous wooden tables there, and for the cake table I don't really want to decorate it. The cake tiers my Auntie is making will be naked yet they are awesome looking, so they will be the 'decor' of you will, can't be bothered with table cloths and knick knacks personally for that table. And it's a small table... probably would be no room for it all anyway!
