We adore a good wedding cake trend and one trend we're seeing and loving right now are Wedding Cake Meadows. This cake display idea places your cake amid a whimsical arrangement of the prettiest blooms and fresh foliage creating a dreamy planted or 'meadow' like effect. In some styles we have even seen florals shifting from the cake completely to the stand itself with couples opting for a more simple cake and adding the glamour with the florals built up around the base. With a hand-picked unstructured look, this garden-inspired moment is perfect for the wild romantic types!
A cake meadow also allows you to reuse blooms that you may have displayed in your ceremony, and you all know how much we love a clever wedding floral repurpose! This is certainly one wedding trend we hope to see more of...

Tips for Creating a Wedding Cake Meadow
- Wedding cake meadows are typically a collaboration between your cake designer, your florist, and if you have one, your wedding stylist.
- We recommend using a sturdy, round table to get the effect shown in the images above. From all angles, this cake is a showstopper. Remember, your blooms will need a good water source so it's important to chose a table that is big enough and strong enough to hold the weight.
- If you are planning to repurpose blooms from your ceremony, make sure there is a plan in place to move them, and set them up in time. Ideally your florist or stylist would do this for you.
- Make sure your wedding cake meadow table is placed in a good, well lit spot so guests can see it in all it's beauty.
- Don't forget to tell your photographer to get a good shot of your beautiful wedding cake meadow design!
