(photo above) There is quite a big story with this lovely caterpillar. Usually, I take photos of a wedding cake at the beginning of my work. On that day I was informed that the cake hasn’t arrived yet… OK, not a problem, I can wait. Everybody can wait… cutting the wedding cake usually takes place in the evening time. Finally, the cake has arrived… unfortunately damaged.
Originally the caterpillar was a B’ day cake for Bride’s uncle.
Hmmmm. shock. WOW… What do You think ??? write a comment what do you think about the zombie wedding cake.
Not everybody is brave enough to offer their guests “cheesecake” instead of traditional cake.

Wedding Cake – Wedding Inspirations from MK Wedding Photography
A wedding cake isn’t just dessert—it’s a showstopper, a symbol of love, and often one of the most memorable parts of the big day. With so many styles, flavours, and designs to choose from, finding the right wedding cake can feel overwhelming. That’s where we step in! In this blog, we’ll explore stunning wedding cake inspirations, beautifully captured by MK Wedding Photography, to help you create a centrepiece that’s as sweet as your love story.
Classic White Wedding Cakes: Timeless Elegance
A white wedding cake is the epitome of elegance. With smooth fondant finishes, intricate piping, and delicate sugar flowers, these cakes are a classic choice for good reason. They suit almost any wedding theme and photograph beautifully. MK Wedding Photography knows how to highlight every detail, ensuring your cake’s beauty shines through in your photos. Add personal touches like lace-inspired designs or pearl accents to make it truly your own.
Minimalist Wedding Cakes: Less Is More
If sleek and simple is your style, a minimalist wedding cake might be the perfect fit. These cakes often feature smooth buttercream or fondant with subtle accents, like a metallic stripe, a single sugar flower, or geometric designs. MK Wedding Photography’s expertise in lighting and composition ensures these modern cakes look stunning in every shot. The minimalist trend is all about clean lines and refined beauty—ideal for couples who want their cake to exude understated elegance.
Rustic and Bohemian Wedding Cakes
For those dreaming of a rustic or boho wedding, a naked or semi-naked wedding cake is the way to go. These cakes show off their layers with a thin coat of frosting and often feature fresh flowers, berries, or greenery. They’re perfect for outdoor or barn weddings, blending effortlessly with the natural surroundings. MK Wedding Photography captures these cakes in their best light, ensuring every natural detail is beautifully preserved in your album.
Whimsical and Themed Wedding Cakes
Why not let your wedding cake tell a story? Themed cakes offer endless opportunities for creativity, whether it’s a hand-painted design, a cake inspired by your favourite book or movie, or a fun shape that reflects your personality. MK Wedding Photography specializes in capturing these unique creations, ensuring the colours, textures, and details are showcased in all their glory. A whimsical wedding cake adds a personal touch and creates a talking point for your guests.
Floral Wedding Cakes: A Romantic Touch
Flowers and wedding cakes are a match made in heaven. Whether you choose fresh blooms, edible wafer paper flowers, or intricate sugar creations, floral wedding cakes are a timeless favourite. MK Wedding Photography’s close-up shots capture every petal and swirl, making sure the romance of your cake is remembered forever. Match your cake’s flowers to your bouquet for a seamless look, or go bold with vibrant, eye-catching blooms.
Seasonal Wedding Cake Ideas
Your wedding date can inspire the perfect cake. For a winter wedding, consider rich flavours like chocolate or spiced cake, adorned with snowflake designs or a dusting of edible glitter. Summer weddings pair beautifully with citrus-flavoured cakes and fresh, bright decorations. MK Wedding Photography knows how to highlight these seasonal touches, ensuring your cake looks as good as it tastes in your photos.
