Make a statement.
No one ever forgets the cake at a wedding, and for that reason, the cake stand is an incredibly important part of making the ideal presentation. Cake stands come in all sorts of formats and varieties, making them as easy to personalize and create a theme around the cake itself.
Go unique and custom, standard and sturdy, or play with a more vintage or creative look. You'll want something that showcases the cake and the moment, but doesn't take away from it. Having wedding cake stands that are too involved may make the cake look a bit less interesting.
1. Play with height and dimension
“Many couples choose an intricate display for a plain wedding cake, but we’re seeing a huge jump towards the opposite, opting for an ornate, bold cake with geometric elements and gold leaf accents, paired with a simple setup of white linens and white cake stands,” says Kylie Carlson of International Academy of Wedding & Event Planning.

2. Suspend the cake
“If you’re looking to add drama to your celebration, consider suspending the cake as your creative take on a cake stand online ,” Carlson suggests. All eyes will be on the confection as guests enter the room for the reception.

3. Use florals
“Florals are an often-seen addition to wedding cakes to India, but take it to another level by pairing them with your cake stand for a romantic look,” Carlson says.

4. Go vintage
Some couples opt for a simple one tier cake, which you can still dress up in a number of ways. Says Paula Ramirez of Historic Mankin Mansion, “We love this vintage-inspired cake stand, which ensured the look was pretty from top to bottom.”

5. Stack your sweets
“Anytime you can add sweets on top of sweets, I’m on board! This cake’s 'stand' was cupcakes. It was a big hit with the guests too,” Thomas Waters of The Renaissance adds.

6. Float the cake in flowers
“This floral cake stand is a stunner. The stand itself is just a clear cube, but it's decked out in flowers. So, the anniversary cake online looks like it's floating in a bed of flowers,” says Jamie Chang, Owner and Destination Wedding Planner of Mango Muse Events.
