Reception centerpiece takes the (cup)cake!
Filed under: Cakes and Catering, Do-It-Yourself, Receptions
We've talked about the wedding cupcake as an option to the traditional wedding cake before. We've even shown you some nice cupcake cups to hold them beautifully. But what do you do with 300 cupcakes when you can't find a cupcake stand that will hold more than sixty?
Well, you can buy or rent five cupcake stands, obviously. This will certainly help prevent congestion around the cake table. You could instead simply have the cupcakes distributed to the tables direct from the kitchen. Or you could take the route chosen by one enterprising bride, and create a cupcake tree of more than life-size dimensions!
This amazing tree is well over six feet (2 m) tall. The tiers are made from fiberboard, the dividers between from Styrofoam cake forms. A curtain rod runs up the middle to hold it all together, and the entire tree is set upon a Christmas tree stand. For more details and pictures, check out the post on Craftster.
