While traditional wedding cakes remain the most popular choice, there are several others gaining popularity.  Cupcake wedding cakes are one of these alternatives.  Cupcake cakes are cupcakes arranged in an elegant stand or tray to resemble a wedding cake.  These cakes can be any shape and size that traditional cakes are but have a couple distinct advantages.

Traditional wedding cakes are almost always made entirely of the same flavor.  Some guests may prefer a different flavor and by using cupcakes you can offer this.  Using different flavored cupcakes allows everyone to choose based on their individual tastes.

Cupcake wedding cakes can also be less costly than traditional cakes.  To keep costs down even more you can make the cake yourself or get friends and family to pitch in to make it together.

If you are going to make the cake yourself you will need to decide how many cupcakes you will need and how they will be displayed.  A bakery may be able to assist you with a cupcake stand or there are many choices available through the internet.

Transporting the cupcakes may also be a concern.  Some stands may work better during transportation than other stands.  Another option is to use trays, cookie sheets, and boxes to lay the cupcakes in and set up the display at the wedding reception site.  Don't be afraid to ask family and friends to help move the cakes if you have made them yourself.

Cupcake wedding cakes can look stunning and can be coordinated to multiple wedding colors.  They are flexible, easy to manage, and make a great choice for any wedding.  Use your imagination and create something extravagant or keep it simple and focus on other parts of the wedding.  The choice is up to you.
