What initially started out as a mandate courtesy of COVID-19, has now become a trend that has stayed on. Yes, we're talking about intimate weddings. While some still prefer the traditional big fat Indian wedding, others have taken to the world of small gatherings. Not only are they more economical but several couples have shared their thoughts on the joy of small celebrations–the idea of spending the most special moment in your life with ones that truly matter. And the celebrations naturally call for a grand wedding cake. Yes, the larger-than-life tiered cakes are jaw-droppingly gorgeous, but at the same time they can also be a bit too much for an intimate affair. If you're someone who finds yourself as a part of the latter, single or double-tiered wedding cakes are the perfect choice for you.
Small wedding cakes are not a new concept and quite frankly, single-tier cakes avoid wastage. With the right accents, a small wedding cake can look wedding-worthy. The secret is in how you dress it up. Here's some inspiration to help you get started.
1. Flower Blossom
A summer wedding screams out pastel and floral. So if you're tying the knot this summer, you know you can't go wrong with a design like this. With a 3D effect, the cake heroes one of the most loved colours of the season, lavender.
2. Sugar Rush
For those of you who like to keep it minimal and elegant, a white cake styled with flowers is the best bet. To keep things elegant you can opt for a cake finished with white fondant or opt for a naked cake with white butter and fresh florals. No matter which way you, go this will be a crowd pleaser.
3. Love For Ombre
