One look at the extreme grooms cakes by Crystal Wedding and you can see what sets them apart from other bakeries. The craftsmanship on their unique wedding cakes is mind blowing! Who would have ever thought to build LSU Stadium into a cake?? (Well they did! Several other Stadiums too.) The patience that the mother-daughter team put into their cake design is really remarkable.

Experience is definitely needed to create these masterpieces. Growing up in her mother Mary Boudreaux's bakery, its no wonder Crystal Williams joined the team. Together they have some 50 years experience under their belts. Knowing the importance of quality, they and their staff bake and cook in the finest of American, French and European traditions. Everything made by hand with the freshest ingredients.

Speaking of traditions, ever heard of a King Cake? They are a uniquely New Orleans Mardi Gras tradition perfected by the Lafayette, Louisiana bakery. It looks like a giant festive pastry that serves 20-25 people! All cakes have a small trinket inside and who ever finds it in their piece has the privilege of buying next years cake! How festive! (They also ship these anywhere!)

A Mardi Gras themed party is not complete without the King Cake, but if its a wedding coming up Crystal Wedding's is your go-to source in for all your wedding planning needs. They have everything you need from toasting glasses, chair covers and cake toppers, to floral centerpieces, candelabras and topiaries. But of course, wedding cakes and grooms are their specialty! So if you are looking for an extra special wedding cake with an artistic flare Crystal Wedding is your place!

Last month we featured the top 5 traditional wedding cake photos that displayed a unique way to personalize this kind of wedding cake. This month we're featuring photos of some of the most brilliantly decorated, excellently made, exquisite tasting traditional wedding cakes that we've found. If you're shopping for a traditional wedding cake from a local cake bakery, Wedding And Party Network offers these photos as inspiration.

#5 Multi-Tiered Multi-Shaped Wedding Cake

Want to turn your traditional wedding cake into something remarkable and unique? Add a few tiers and change the shape of the base tier! This four tiered wedding cake features three round tiers and a square tier at the base. More than just shape, this cake also features unique icing patterns that quickly stand out to guests. Each layer is a different icing pattern which means you quadruple the level of fun! And is it just my imagination or do I spot a unique cake platter at the bottom? *wink*

#4 Winter Wonderland White Wedding Cake

Need a quick tip for enhancing your traditional wedding cake? Make it seasonal. You don't have to add color or any other contemporary accent if you choose not to. Simply ask for unique icing patterns and seasonal accents like this wedding cake has. Given a winter theme by the bride, this cake features snowflake patterns in the icing as well as several shimmery silver snowflakes. If you're going to adorn a cake with flair, use accents that play up the season of your wedding.

This Winter wedding cake was submitted by Sue's Sweets, a wedding cake bakery in Rahway New Jersey.

#3 Buttercream Icing Cake With Decorative Fondant Accents

This cake has so many elaborate fondant decorations that it is hard to pick a place to begin describing it. The baker started with three layers of cake covered in classic white buttercream icing. White fondant accents were used to create the look of ribbons flowing from the top layer to the bottom as well as flowers and other decorations on each tier of the cake.

Adding unique decorations or elaborate and feminine decorations is a fun way to make sure that your cake is not too traditional or boring but rather full of attraction and beauty. Elegant is always best for traditional wedding cakes but personalized decorations help make it a reflection of your elegance.

#2 Split Tier Strawberry & Buttercream Wedding Cake

Amassing tall tiers of delicious cake is a surefire way to make your traditional wedding cake stand out without adding any other decorations. If you want to liven your cake up a little more, try a split-tier wedding cake like this one featuring three square tiers atop a silver cake platter, a small split filled with strawberries, and a round tier on top with more strawberries instead of a cake topper.

Another unique feature of this cake is the ivory floral lace icing pattern which is just enough of a color contrast to stand out against the white buttercream icing covering each tier. These may be just three small ways to personalize the wedding cake but together they make one dynamite attraction at the reception!

#1 Ivory Stacked Fondant Wedding Cake

I cannot think of a cake in recent memory that dazzled me quite so much as this incredible wedding cake. This is three layers of ivory stacked fondant covered in a chantilly lace icing pattern and decorated to the hilt with green foliage decorations. The combination of ivory, white and green is beautiful. It's homage to an elegant time when these colors were everywhere and elegance along with opulence ruled the day.

This beautiful wedding cake is a stunning reminder of the finer things in life. When shopping for your wedding cake, think "lavish decorations" even for small, traditional wedding cakes and you'll find incredible treats like this.

Traditional is the name of the game for September. For those interested in traditional wedding cakes with a hint of personality, these wedding cake photos are for you! I've included some pointers on putting a personalized spin on traditional wedding cakes so sit down, relax, let your mouth water and enjoy some wedding cake photos!

#5 Traditional Wedding Cake With Green Ribbon

All it takes is a small touch to make a traditional wedding cake come to life. Each of the three tiers on this wedding cake is wrapped at the base with beautiful green ribbon. It's a simple touch but it adds so much to the feel of the reception. Also, green drew out the color of the leaves used in the floral decorations.

Another great touch makes this wedding cake a favorite. The top outer edge of each tier is lined with pearl drops of buttercream icing. On top of layers of flavor, this is a beautiful look and an even better taste.

This colorful wedding cake was submitted by G. Elliot Catering, talented caterers in Tampa Florida.

#4 Wedding Cake With Red Ribbon On Unique Platter

Not only is this a stand-out cake because of the scarlet ribbon used on each tier, it's also a favorite because of the unique platter on which it rests. Small or larger, elaborate cake platters make a world of difference to a traditional wedding cake which typically does not feature the kind of across-the-room eye-catching designs of other wedding cakes.

This beautiful wedding cake on a unique silver cake platter was submitted by Krazy Ladies Catering, fun-spirited caterers in Meridian Mississippi.

#3 Four Tiers Fondant Wedding Cake

Many tiers are always a helpful way to personalize the wedding cake because the sheer height of the cake grabs attention quickly. This four tiered round wedding cake is completely covered in white rolled fondant. Each tier has pearl icing accents for an extra touch. Another stand-out feature are the edible wedding cake flowers used as a cake topper. What a neat addition!

This fondant wedding cake with edible flowers was submitted by Designs In Sugar, creater of gumpaste flowers for wedding cakes in Collierville Tennessee.

#2 Wedding Cake With Pearl Icing Accents

"Beautiful" is the only way to describe this fantastic traditional wedding cake. It's not color or height that draws the eye to this cake. It's not a unique platter or cake topper. It's the design all of it's own and that's why it is a favorite traditional wedding cake for September. Each of the three tiers is covered in a delicious buttercream icing and given extra appeal with pearl icing designs up and down the sides of each tier. How beautiful!

#1 Precious Moments Wedding Cake

If ever there were a moment for fanfare, this would be it. This traditional wedding cake veers a bit from the most traditional and uses a few classic accents to give it a personal touch. For starters, there are four tiers of wedding cake covered in buttercream icing. Yum! Next a different icing pattern is used on each layer.

To top it all off and make this cake #1 on the list, this cake has a Precious Moments cake topper. Talk about a fun way to personalize any wedding cake! Brides marrying now are very familiar with Precious Moments and other unique licensed characters. Adding their likeness to the wedding cake topper is a great way to make the cake truly feel like it belongs to you..

This month's theme is "contemporary wedding cakes" so I've decided to spotlight some of the most popular and all-around favorite contemporary wedding cakes from Wedding And Party Network's bakeries. I've even included details so you'll know where to buy similar cakes and what to ask for when you're shopping for a wedding cake. Enjoy!

*circus style fanfare*

#5 Wedding Cake With A Taste of Blue Flowers

This wedding cake is a nice blend of traditional and modern. For a slight contemporary flair, blue flowers were used as a cake topper and icing decorations of the same color were used on each tier. For a very quick dash of modern attitude, liven up your wedding cake with color.

#4 Fruit Basket Wedding Cake

This is one wedding cake that's almost too unique to top! It is shaped like three stacked harvest baskets ready to be filled with summer fruit. The cool thing about is that it's a wedding cake! "Unique" and "contemporary" are almost interchangeable when it comes to wedding cakes so this one was sure to make the cut.

This harvest basket contemporary wedding cake was submitted by Toria Dolce Fine Desserts & Wedding Cakes, a wedding cake bakery in Ashaway Rhode Island.

#3 Asian Inspired Wedding Cake With Red Flowers

This is a very beautiful wedding cake with red flowers because red is an important color in Asian weddings. Red and white paired together are very powerful colors in many Asian cultures so this wedding cake is the perfect blend for a happy couple.

The three tiers at first appear to be just normal square tiers of buttercream icing and tasty cake but no! Black ribbons around the base of each tier provide a small accent for both the white color of the cake and the bright red flowers used to adorn each tier. A few Asian wedding decorations and the theme is set!

This Asian inspired wedding cake was submitted by Gourmet On The Go, delicious caterers in Victorville California.

#2 Pink & Black Polka Dotted Wedding Cake

You can't get much more contemporary than this funky wedding cake! This is four tiers of fun as far as any modern bride is concerned. Hot pink and black polka dots come together brilliantly against a solid white cake. Pink flowers used as cake toppers and as decorations around the base of the cake help create an inviting display for this incredibly modern wedding cake.

This polka dotted wedding cake was submitted by Bake My Day, a wedding cake bakery in Louisville Kentucky.

#1 Black & White Mini Fondant Cakes

Elaborate fanfare is much deserved for this wedding cake–or rather wedding cakes. Black and white colors were used to create a very modern color palette. As opposed to a cupcake wedding cake, this couple chose small mini cakes covered decorated to look like tiny gift boxes. Each small cake was covered in fondant for a very precise finish. The top tier is a small cake for the couple with a fun black and white cake topper to finish out the look of the cake. From top tier to bottom tier, this definitely deserves to be the #1 contemporary wedding cake of the month.

Have you ever tried to find a wedding cake bakery in Huntsville Alabama? If you don't know the right place or are new to the town, it can be hard to find the right one. Instead of spending all of your time aimlessly searching for the perfect wedding cake, get started right on your search for a Huntsville bakery that will make your wedding cake. Here are suggestions for getting your dream wedding cake in Huntsville, Alabama:

Start by asking friends and family for suggestions –  Wedding cake bakeries in Huntsville are as unique as the beautiful wedding cakes that they create. Therefore, finding the perfect one is going to take an outside opinion from someone who has used a Huntsville bakery before.

Sample wedding cakes at your local bakery — No two wedding cake bakeries are created the same! Once you know which bakeries you wish to consider, call and make an appointment for a consultation. It sounds a little scarier than it is. A consultation with your wedding cake baker can be the difference between fantastic and flop so call and ask for a sampling and consultation before you make your final decision.

Research the wedding cakes that you like — It's always helpful to know what wedding cake styles interest you before your consultation with the bakery. This will also help you know that you are picking the right one. Some wedding cake bakeries in Huntsville specialize in unique designs while others are more traditional. Finding the one for you means knowing which style of wedding cake you want first.

Have allergy information on hand during the consultation — If you think your Great Aunt Gertrude will have a bad reaction to a very sugary icing, this information should be known during your consultation. Any allergy information or taste preferences should be mentioned during the initial visit to your wedding cake bakery.

That's it! Now finding your ideal wedding cake is as easy as visiting a few local Huntsville wedding cake bakeries!

Ask The Celebration Advisor: I'm getting married in Louisville Kentucky because my fiance's family is from there. We're stationed in Wyoming so his parents have agreed to plan everything but want me to choose the type of wedding cake I want. I have no idea what to do for a traditional Southern wedding because I've never been to one and I think I would offend them if I chose something that I want like a modern wedding cake in red and black. What should I do? ~ Maleigha

The Celebration Advisor: You're well within your rights to get a contemporary wedding cake if that is what you want. However, it is understandable (and applaudable) that you want to make your future in-laws happy with your choice. If you truly want something with a bit more style and unique appeal, consider these wedding cake designs that are popular with southern brides in Louisville, KY.

Polka dot wedding cakes are very popular with Louisville brides (and brides across the country) because they are unique and can feature any variety of colors. While the overall design may not appeal to your in-laws, two tiers of a polka dot wedding cake keep the design from being overwhelming.

The second wedding cake photo depicts a very beautiful, contemporary round wedding cake that many people will get on board with. Though round wedding cakes with ribbons around the base of each tier aren't particularly unique, adding an accent like edible cake flowers or draping fondant will help. Wedding cake bakeries in Louisville Kentucky will have many talented pastry chefs who can make helpful suggestions.

The last wedding cake photo is one that should excite you because it's design is simple enough to be liked by traditionalists but contemporary enough in color and form to appeal to you. Red, white, black and silver or a two-color palette will help your Louisville wedding cake bakery create an exquisite cake for your wedding!
