Beach theme wedding cakes

Although the traditional white wedding cake is still a popular choice among brides and grooms in America today, there are many couples who are looking to go beyond tradition and add a bit of flair to their wedding which will make it memorable for many years to come. One of the more popular options in wedding decorations is the beach wedding, which more and more brides are opting for as they say their vows on white beaches in Florida or Hawaii.
 
If you’ll be having a beach side wedding, you might want to consider a beach theme wedding, which means instead of the traditional wedding dress, you’ll be wearing a beach theme wedding dress, like a grass skirt and leis with flowers in your hair. It is far from traditional but it is modern, which is what many women seek. With a beach themed wedding, you also have many beach theme wedding cakes to choose from as well.
 

Beach theme wedding cake toppers

The most important part of choosing any wedding cake is the topper, as it is what is remembered for ages, long after the cake is gone. There are several beach wedding cake toppers that are available for you to choose from, featuring surfer brides and grooms, to funny hippy brides and grooms that laze atop the cake. Your choice in topper depends totally on your style, as you will want to be sure it matches both yours and your groom’s personality perfectly.
 

Wedding cake colors

Aside from choosing the topper for your beach wedding cake, you will want to decide on colors and flavors as well. In order to make your cake memorable, you should consider using bright colors that separate it from the traditional white wedding cake with small accents. Using bright colors on your beach wedding cake is a sure fire way to set it apart from the standard wedding cake while giving it flair that both you and your guests will appreciate.
 

Exotic flavors

As for the flavor, there are many popular options when it comes to beach wedding cakes. While traditional cakes are vanilla or chocolate, perhaps even strawberry, since the beach theme is exotic, there have been many brides who have chosen to have pineapple cake to go along with their theme. This is a nice surprise for guests, as most generally assume the cake will be vanilla, however once they bite into it, they are greeted with the pleasant surprise of pineapple. If you are not fond of pineapple, you can also opt for orange, or even lemon, in order to retain that tropical vibe you are seeking.
 

The perfect beach themed wedding cake

No matter what style of cake you choose, you should be sure it fits perfectly with the idea of your wedding. If you’re not happy with your cake topper, you should strive to make sure you get one which fits in with what your cake will look like, in addition to the rest of your wedding decorations. Since you only get one wedding and one day to make it beautiful, be sure it’s exactly what you want before you commit to any design you’re unsure of whether or not you’ll like.
