Summer Wedding Cakes

Summer wedding tones include balmy mid-purples, rich peaches, ice whites, baby yellows and pale blues. Summer wedding colors can also be more of a "statement", making use of colors such as lime green, mandarin orange, coral and royal blue. Once you have decided this you can go ahead and start planning how best to decorate your summer themed wedding cake.

Summer Wedding Cakes – Candles and Candle Sticks

Because summer is traditionally a relatively vivid and colorful time of year why not consider using candles to decorate your summer themed wedding cake? As we all know candles are available in a huge array of colors shapes and sizes. This is ideal when you want to link in the main colors that you have already chosen for your bridal gown, bouquet, button holes, table decorations and centerpieces. If you wanted to be a bit ‘different’ you could choose to go for metallic candles, or ones that change color. If you were feeling particularly adventurous and flashy then why not even think about using sparklers or indoor fireworks to really make a bang at your wedding celebration!

Candle sticks are also particularly useful if you have a tiered wedding cake at your summer themed wedding. This is because you can dictate the levels at which the candle flames will flicker, and in this way you can create added interest through the shadows that the candle stick flames will create on the icing. This is a very simple yet effective way of ensuring a really romantic and memorable mood within your summer themed wedding cake.

Summer Wedding Cakes – Flowers and Butterflys

A very traditional method of decorating your wedding cake at any time of year is to use seasonal flowers. Summer flowers tend to be warmer and deeper in color, and this is most likely a good description of the main color that you have already chosen for your summer themed wedding.

In the summer time the following types of flowers are in season: Amaryllis, Anemone, Camellias, Catkins, Orchid, Dogwoods, Eucalyptus, Fruiting Ivy, Heather, Pussy Willow, Rosehips, Rosemary and Twisted Willow. You could choose to pick out real live flowers to decorate the place setting for your summer themed wedding cake, and you can even choose to use them as coiling decorations on the columns between the tiers of your cake. Alternatively you could ask your expert cake decorator to create special blooms in sugaring. This is another easy way to link in your entire color scheme as food dye can be manipulated to create the perfect tone that you and your intended may require for your special day.
