Donut walls have gained popularity at weddings over the last couple years. Rethink that trend by displaying these desserts in a pyramid shape, instead, à la this M Cakes Sweets creation. The result? A treat that resembles a wedding cake, but still deviates from tradition. #weddingideas #wedding #marthstewartwedding #weddingplanning #weddingchecklist Wedding Pie, Wedding Donuts, Wedding Treats, Wedding Cakes, Big Wedding, Winter Wedding, Wedding Stuff, Wedding Party, Dream Wedding

One reason couples choose to forgo classic wedding cakes is because they would rather have desserts that are pre-portioned for each individual guest. If you're one of those duos, mini key lime pies are a solid option.

Worried that your cake alternative won't feel wedding-worthy? If you don't want to deviate too far from a traditional big-day dessert, make a treat shaped like one. Even though this stack was made of flapjacks, the cake-inspired shape made the "confection" feel bridal instead of brunch-ready. #weddingideas #wedding #marthstewartwedding #weddingplanning #weddingchecklist White Cookie
