Wedding cake tables and dessert bars are becoming a popular choice as an alternative to the traditional silver wedding-cake stand. They are also becoming a fantastic money saving option if you want to cut the dessert and just have a wedding cake table with a few choices instead. With so many incredible wedding cake ideas and cake-y trends it would be only fitting to display them to perfection so we've gathered up 25 of our favourite Inspiring Wedding Cake and Dessert Tables. From simple ideas you can recreate to more elaborate dreamy inspiration, there is something here for every cake lover!
