30 Modern Wedding Cake Designs

Avant-garde and impactful designs that would look just as good on a dessert table as they would in an art gallery!

The wedding cake is always a detail we are excited to see coming through in our real wedding and styled shoot submissions here at One Fab Day. We are constantly blown away by the creativity of both our suppliers and vendors pushing the boundaries of cake design. One trend we are seeing constantly is the minimalist wedding trend, and there are quite a few modern wedding cakes creeping through right now. These cakes are where simplicity is the focus, but also they include a chic and contemporary artistic flourish. Whether it's playing with geometric shapes and gravity or creating unique textures, today we're sharing a curation of some of the must see modern wedding cake designs by talented cake designers from across the globe inspiring us right now. These contemporary cake designs will blow you away!
