As a wedding planner, I love assisting our wedding couples with every aspect of their special day.
Each wedding at Alexander's is unique but they all have one thing in common, the wedding cake/dessert.
Our brides and grooms ask for all kinds of cakes--from the very traditional white-on-white cake to a red velvet with chocolate frosting to a towering blue fondant. I love that wedding cakes are becoming an art-form and just about anything is possible and I encourage our wedding couples to go for it.
Some wedding couples use their parents or grandparent's cake topper, continuing a sentimental family tradition.
The history of wedding cakes is fascinating and goes back hundreds of years. To read about it, follow the link to an article in the Smithsonian magazine.
