How about a wedding dress cake. Or a whimsical wedding cake with a unique topper. Even if you are not planning on making your own wedding cake you can still design your own wedding cake. Your wedding dress design may inspire you.

Look for details in fabric and incorporate them into the design of your cake. Here is a great example on this page.

• Start clipping out pictures from magazines of designs that you like. The don't have to be a cake pictures, they can be literally anything.
• Do look at as many wedding cake pictures as possible and clip those too.
• Think about the setting at which the ceremony will take place. By the ocean? You might want a beach theme or a tropical wedding cake theme.
• Do you have a hobby or activity that you or your husband to be would like to show in your design, such as hiking, or mountain climbing. Are you a dancer? Musician? Bodybuilder? Cat lover? Dog lover? Horse Lover? Well you get the idea...

• Make a list of possibilities no matter how crazy they seem. I once had a mountain climbing couple who asked me to design a cake that looked like a mountain.

Ask your cake decorator for ideas, It's always more interesting for the person making the cake to do something new and different.

Two very different shots of the same cake. This was Corinna and Maceo's wedding cake which they both helped to design. The cake was made for their gorgeous fall wedding 2010, using influences from the brides satin dress pictured below.

~Corina's Satin Wedding Dress~

The large satin flowers and the draping are what caught my interest. Champagne colored buttercream, to match the dress, and the lace bodice were also incorporated in a subtle way. Fall flowers were made available to me to use as accents to this elegant cake, which was setting on a gorgeous silver cake stand.

The large fondant flower and draping were hand done by me and were very unique. I have never seen this type of sugar flower before. I played around with the fondant and pretended it was fabric in my hands as I folded it into the flower. unique-wedding-dresses.com has gorgeous wedding dress design ideas that can be incorporated into a wedding cake.
