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.
