Cake, Food & Drink ideas

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #24 Absolutely loving this Alexander McQueen-inspired wedding cake by Victoria Made. Also available in black!

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #23 This ‘black and white’ statement wedding cake is one of the most creative I’ve ever seen! It’s from Simon & Nik’s black and white themed Jew-ish wedding and features a chocolate model of their dog, as well as a black glitter heart, and the Vivienne Westwood and Versace logos made from chocolate, as well as their double moustache wedding logo too. Incredible!

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #22 I love these personalised ‘CARMELychee Martinis’ and ‘MojEDO’ cocktails (and the arty way in which they were served) from Carmel & Edo’s rustic Jewish wedding.

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #21 If you’re a big kid go for a hundreds and thousands decorated wedding cake like Hannah + Raf did at their colourful English country garden wedding (clever Hannah made this cake herself!)

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #20 I’m a big fan of these sculptural , minimalist, and downright stunning wedding cakes by Victoria Made. She incorporates such style and beauty without being ostentatious or OTT. I bet they taste divine too… [ images: Victoria Made ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #19 A painted wedding cake? Oh yes! A stunning three tiered cake made and hand-painted by Natasha of Nevie Pie Cakes to be precise.  Natasha painted flowers and foliage on the cake which were inspired by the couple’s wedding flowers. [ image: M&J Photography / Love My Dress ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #16 Stunning cakes by Elizabeth’s Cake Emporium.

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #14 Love books? Go for a penguin book wedding cake like this fabulous one created by Jen’s Cakery for Michelle and Graham’s literary-inspired wedding. See more images from their ‘bookish’ wedding on Love My Dress [ images:  Assassynation / Love My Dress ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #14 Have a signature cocktail that you both love served in vintage bottles with straws (as seen at Sarah & Mike’s DIY inspired wedding) and then have the cocktail recipes printed on coasters which an double up as favours. [ images:  Hales Studio / Bethalee Photography ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #13 Have a chocolate biscuit wedding cake like Prince William requested (the cake is said to be a childhood favourite of the Prince’s and it that appears in Princess Diana’s personal chef, Darren McGrady‘s cookbook ‘Eating Royally‘) If you fancy going all out and need to know the details of the Royal wedding cake, it consisted of 1,700 McVitie’s rich tea biscuits and nearly 40 lbs. of chocolate. It was presented on a beautiful golden stand and decorations included white chocolate water lilies, milk chocolate leaves and a mixture of white and milk chocolate feathers.

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #12 A novelty cake featuring something you love. Natasha & Jez absolutely love cow print and went for a lifesize cow cake! [image: Susan Stripling]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #11 Do you and your partner love playing a particular board game? How about a Monopoly cake, a backgammon cake, or a Scrabble cake where you can really have fun with the tiles and words! [image: weddingwindow.com / pinkcakebox.com / projectwedding.com ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #10 If you have a wedding logo or monogram, have cupcakes displayed in your monogram design or have it iced onto a cake. [image: p-a-r-t-y-planning.tumblr.com } [image: rockmywedding.co.uk / Ed Peers ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #9 Cupcakes are always popular but what about the twist of a cupcake in a jar in your theme colour(s) or in your favourite flavour, like this scrumptious mojito cupcake in a jar? [image: gdesserts.com]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #8 A wedding chocolate fountain is fun, indulgent and sociable, but it can get messy if not manned properly. Having said that, no one ever said indulgence was a tidy business! For a toned-down version, chocolate-dipped strawberries and ice cream are perfect for a summery wedding. [image: stylemepretty.com / Troy Grover Photographers]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #7 Macaron towers are super-stylish, super-delicious and can be created in your wedding colours. [image: stylemepretty.com / One Love Photography]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #6  If you’re more a savoury than a sweet type, how about a cake made of cheese rounds for your dessert? Surround it with crackers, breads, chutneys, spreads, additional fruit and serve it with dessert wines. [image: rockmywedding.co.uk / Julia & You ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #5 A Croquembouche makes a stylish French statement. The traditional wedding cake of French nobility is a tower of profiteroles held together with spun sugar. For added personalisation it can be decorated with drizzled chocolate or icing coloured to match your wedding colours. [image: weddingfanatic.com ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #4 Everybody loves donuts and they’re easy to decorate in your wedding colours. [image: colincowieweddings.com ]

FOOD & DRINK IDEA #3 Cupcakes and cookies are more than done, but go a step further and personalise them with a message or photo from you to your guests. Have lots of different flavour cupcakes and cookies on one gorgeous table in a total sweet fest! For the extra mile, supply take-home boxes too which can be personalised with your monogram too. Alternatively have each cupcake display something different which when laid out together displays something that you love like these amazing packman wedding cupcakes.
