From gluten-free and vegetarian food options to the colour of the ribbons tied to the back of the chairs to the size of the bridesmaid\u2019s heels, weddings really do test the patience of even the most organized person. And, one feature of a wedding that <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">definitely<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> deserves lots of attention is the cake. Wedding cakes are great at acting as a canvas to demonstrate the theme of your wedding, whether that\u2019s classic black and white, all things nautical, or a scene from a fairytale book. Cakes come in all sorts of shapes and sizes, and can act out just about any theme you can imagine. So, if you\u2019re planning on getting hitched in 2016, you\u2019ll be excited to know that there are all sorts of new wedding cake trends that are predicted to be<\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> huge<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">&nbsp;this year. Here they are!<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Painted Wedding Cakes<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">The concept may sound a little strange, but boy, do painted wedding cakes look good! If you\u2019re planning on having a colourful wedding, or would like the cake to act as the \u201caccent\u201d of the party, then opting for a painted wedding cake is a fantastic idea. People are even going for stained-glass painted cakes, and Monet-inspired design \u2013 will you be one of them?<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Ombre Wedding Cakes<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">It\u2019s safe to say that ombre really is taking over. Not only is ombre <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">hair<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> super popular right now, but it\u2019s now possible to get an ombre cake for your wedding. This cake idea proves to be extremely artistic, and can be done in all sorts of ways. If your colour theme is pastel blue, great! If it\u2019s more of a hot pink, then that can be done, too. There is an ombre cake to suit every style and taste, so this wedding cake trend is definitely worth looking into further.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Metallic Wedding Cakes<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Metallic cakes are <\/span><i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">so<\/span><\/i><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\"> in right now. If you\u2019re going for a classic, old-Hollywood feel at your wedding, then a metallic wedding cake will fit in perfectly. But, even if you\u2019re not, they look great with a range of themes. They are a perfect way of combining classic and modern, and can be made in all sorts of unusual shades. <\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Ruffled Wedding Cakes<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">One wedding cake theme that\u2019s becoming increasingly popular is ruffled, since it looks so sophisticated and elegant. Ruffled wedding cakes look light and airy, and perfect when combined with floral d\u00e9cor. Simple, minimalistic and oh so pretty, it\u2019s no surprise that this wedding cake trend will be a big hit in 2016.<\/span><\/p>\n<h2>Lace Wedding Cakes<\/h2>\n<p><span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">If you want a classic and elegant wedding cake but aren\u2019t feeling the whole \u201cruffled\u201d thing, then a lace wedding cake is a good option to consider. These are particularly effective if the bride is wearing a lace wedding dress, but still look fantastic even if that isn\u2019t the case. A tiered wedding cake with minor lace details is super popular right now, but is also a blissfully timeless design.<\/span><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Most people who have been married, or who are in the process of organizing their wedding, will know all too well just how important small details really are.
