Wedding cakes vs Wedding cupcakes


















Wedding cake

Wedding Cupcakes


The decision of having to choose between a wedding cake or wedding cupcakes at my wedding wasn't an easy one. I thought, "who has wedding cupcakes anyway?". But being that I am more of a non-traditional bride, i decided to look into this further. I soon learned that this was something new that brides were doing in 2010. What better way  to WOW my guests! I have to admit that I really had my heart set on a particular wedding cake, but wedding cakes are definitely pricey and very TRADITIONAL. I thought the way to save money on a wedding cake was to buy a cake sheet and a small cake for display. But I wasn't completely sold on that idea. Something about this whole cupcake thing had me curious and very interested. So, I decided to schedule our cake tasting with The Swan Bakery in Cathedral City. After our cake tasting i was sold on the idea of having assorted cupcakes with different types of fillings in them. Yes, fillings! They weren't your typical cupcakes though, these were definitely very unique and special and i knew that it was exactly what I wanted for my wedding day. Now, cost wise I ended up paying the same as I would've with an actual cake. But i placed my order anyway. On the day of my wedding I got nothing but compliments. My guests were amazed at how incredible our cupcakes tasted and how unique the idea of having cupcakes at a wedding was. 
With this said, I vote for Cupcakes all the way!
