Sweet dreams are made of these…. magnificent fall wedding cakes that honestly had us googling, “How early in the day is it socially acceptable to eat an entire cake in solidarity?” Don’t worry. We realized that #adulting means making your own rules.

From butterscotch palettes to wafer paper techniques to ribbon fondant, we’ve been on the hunt for fall wedding cakes that make the ultimate statement, and the 100+ to follow did not disappoint! Of course, autumn weddings can mean many things for the design direction. Harvest moons, seasonal fruits like figs, pears and berries, pheasant feathers, tartan prints, sugar leaves and fall flowers, moody concrete textures or bark-mimicking grooves, drippy icing… I digress!

Which one are you vibing with most? Those hauntingly beautiful cakes for a spooky season wedding, the poetically romantic harvest confections with fruit accents for days, the boho chic classics like drippy naked cakes or the addition of a modern twist like sugar sun palms? Gahhhh. We could live in this inspiration forever. We hope you enjoyed us lending you some sugar, neighbor. (Yes, I totally went there).
