Most expensive celebrity weeding cakes
Celebrity wedding cakes

Celebrities are known for extravagant wedding ceremonies. From designer wedding gowns to ornate flower arrangements, the weddings of the wealthy are filled with extreme spending. And the wedding receptions are just as over the top as the ceremony.

For some celebrities, the wedding cake has to shine just as brightly as the bride’s ring. After all, the wedding cake is often used as more than just a sweet dessert. They are a focal piece for which the entire color scheme and theme of the reception is based. With such an important position, a wedding cake must be beautiful, elegant, and above all, unique.

Starting with royalty.

Weighing in at nearly 600 pounds, the chocolate-chip marble cake was decorated with butter cream frosting. While the height of the cake was extravagant, the colors of the cake were not. The tiers alternated between black and white, giving the wedding cake a simplistic modern feel. In the end, the cake was far too large to cut and sheet cakes were cut and served to the guests.
