Weddings are certainly a special day for couples as they celebrate the beginning of their journey together. One important aspect of weddings is the cake. It is a symbol of celebration and a centerpiece of the reception. However, wedding cakes can be expensive and can put a dent in your budget. In this blog, we will be discussing affordable wedding cake ideas to help you meet your budget! And this is coming from an affordable wedding photography and videography company with 10-plus years of experience. So we have certainly seen a few wedding cakes!
DIY Wedding Cake
A great way to save money on your wedding cake is to make it yourself. This is a great option for couples who love to bake and are willing to put in the time and effort. You can find easy-to-follow wedding cake recipes online, and you can even take cake decorating classes to learn how to make the perfect cake if you are looking for a pre-wedding activity to do together. And of course that will mean you will be better at baking great cakes after the wedding! But the DIY option doesn’t necessarily have to involve cakes, we have seen a wedding cake of cheese wheels, which we thought was very creative!

Cupcake Tower
Cupcake towers are becoming a popular option for weddings. They are not only affordable but also allow for a variety of flavours and designs. You can either make the cupcakes yourself or have a local bakery make them for you.
Sheet Cake
A sheet cake is a great option for weddings with a large number of guests. They are affordable and can be customised to fit your wedding theme. While in Australia we tend to just refer to them by the flavour, these are a super easy cake to whip up (just make sure you have large enough trays if you have a lot of wedding guests!) and allow you to get super creative with the top of the cake if you want.

Fake Cake
A fake cake is a great option for couples who want a grand cake but are on a tight budget. You can have a fake cake as the centerpiece of the reception and have sheet cakes in the kitchen for serving.
In conclusion, there are many affordable wedding cake ideas that can help you save money without compromising on the taste and design of the cake.
