Simple White Wedding Cakes

There is nothing more classic and simple than a plain white wedding cake. To save money and stay true to that classic look forget about real flowers and go for inexpensive cake toppers. Like the K.i.s.s Wedding Guide says - compromise in one are to spend more money in areas that most to you!

To make your simple white wedding cake a wee bit more unique go with a uniform texture or a white on white motif like polka dots. You can even take it a tiny bit farther with a wee bit of fabric. But stop there. Anything else makes it anything but simple!

People can sometimes go crazy with floral displays on their cakes. Sure flowers are pretty, no one will deny that. BUT, if you like simple wedding cakes then take it easy on the flowers.
