We attended a wedding which, in place of a traditional tiered wedding cake, the couple made a tiered cupcake stand and placed, yes, cupcakes. While my discription lacks the really cool and creative words, it was very cool and creative. And reflected the couples personalities, lifestyle and interests. Very cool, indeed.

Beth, loved your article and emails sharing ideas for alternatives. I am a traditional girl, but love starting traditions also. I see that friends are incorporating old traditions with the new in the weddings we attended this summer. What fun!

Anne, as a self appointed spell checker you might want to proofread your post.

Ms. Anne, maybe you need to enable spell checker, and not be so critical of others. Why can’t we all get along and be nice to one another the way God is so forgiving to us?!?!?

Ms. Harvey: As a wedding coordinator (no caps needed), you certainly should know how to spell the work “groom.” As a librarian and a former English teacher it disurbs me when such simple words are misspelled.

As a Wedding Coordinator, my belief is that everything in the wedding of two people should reflect something special or particular to the couple on their special day. With that in mind, we live in central North Carolina where Krispy Kreme Donuts have been a part of childhood for many adults now planning thier weddings. Krispy Kreme will create a wedding cake made from stacking donuts on tiers to suit the bride and groome. Decorations may be added as with any other type of cake. I have recommended this to people who are planning an outdoor wedding where heat might be a factor and might threaten to melt a traditionally iced wedding cake. No, I do not work for Krispy Kreme, I just think it is a neat alternative when the traditional is not a good option OR when the couple share happy memories at the thought of the soft donut morsels.

We went to a wedding last year that featured a dessert bar instead of wedding cake. Desserts ranged from cheesecake to fancy parfaits, and also had a “create-your-own hot chocolate” table, with add-ins like oreo cookie crumbs, caramel, mint, etc.

One of the best desserts I enjoyed at a wedding were brownies a la mode. Guests could build their own brownie sundae by choosing from a buffet of “extras”: fruit, nuts, sprinkles, and magic shell topping. Customizable and delicious!!
