Sweet Western Theme Wedding Cakes

With theme weddings surrounding today's wedding planning, it is no surprise brides are looking deeper to find a wedding cake to coordinate with their theme. A theme growing in popularity is the western theme.

Cowboys and girls all around are choosing this fun and traditional theme for their wedding celebration. A western theme wedding cake is a perfect addition to this original theme. Turning a traditional wedding cake into a western theme wedding cake is simple to do.

One way to add the western theme to your wedding cake is to use a western theme cake topper. Popular western cake toppers include items typical of country or ranch life. Miniature cowboy and cowgirl wedding couples are adorable to use for a western cake. They usually come wearing cowboy hats and their wedding attire.

Another option for the cake topper is to use miniature horses. Most western theme lovers also enjoy horses, making this topper an instant hit. Traditional country wedding style includes an abundance of lace.

A more traditional topper idea for your western wedding cake is to use handcrafted flowers made of lace. These flowers can be bought at most craft stores. For a western theme wedding with a desert feel, the couple may choose to use faux cactus plants to decorate their wedding cake. A vibrant green cactus looks great on top of a bright white wedding cake.


In addition to western theme toppers, brides and grooms can choose to take the cake decoration process to the extreme. For an out-of-the-box kind of western wedding cake, consider decorating your cake with a complete scene. A professional cake artist can assist you in this project. This idea works best with multi-tiered wedding cakes.

Each layer can be a different western scene. One layer can be a green pasture with horses grazing. Another layer can be an old western town with sheriffs and outlaws. This idea is open to any creative idea the couple may have. Anything they dream can be put on their cake. Guests love these interesting cake choices because of their originality.

Lace, as mentioned, is a great western theme wedding accessory. To quickly dress up a western cake, simply add lace to the outside edges of each layer. This is a great idea for brides who are looking to add just a touch of the theme to their cake. It is a subtle and beautiful addition to a plain wedding cake.

Another quick idea is to simply set mini cowboy hats in any color around the tiers of a traditional wedding cake. These fast ideas are wonderful for a bride short on time.

The wedding cake is an enormous part of a wedding celebration. These ideas are a great way to turn a boring wedding cake into an elaborate western theme wedding cake. Remember, the western theme should be fun and exciting, however it can also be traditional and elegant. Creating a great western wedding cake is the key to kicking off a dandy western wedding reception.
