The Best Alternative Wedding Cakes





Not everyone wants to slice a cake on the big day. Above are some photos to inspire you to think outside of the box when it comes to choosing the right "cake" for your wedding day. After much browsing on Pinterest and the web, the possibilities are endless. We've even come across a beer can wedding cake for the groom! The most popular kind of cakes seem to be cupcakes or doughnuts, but we like the idea of going the cookie route--imagine the flavor options!

Simple + Rustic Tablescape Inspirations






If your wedding is in the spring, summer, fall or winter you can grab inspiration from a rustic style wedding. Especially if your reception takes place outdoors, it is great to utilize the natural elements of the space around you. Pick up accents from the wood in your chairs to the trees and greenery around your tables to help play up your rustic themed tabletop. Not only is it unique and simple, but many of the supplies are cheaper than some other decor options.
Take a cue from some of these weddings and bring out your outdoors-y side! Other inspirations as well: 1 // 2 // 3
