Wedding cake ideas and inspiration - traditional tiered cakes, fairy cakes and cookies, chocolate, alternative...

1. When it comes to the style of your cake, take inspiration from your colour scheme, wedding venue and even details on your wedding dress.

2. A good wedding cake designer will ask for as much detail of your big day as possible to help him or her come up with some suitable ideas. Inspiration could come from your dress design, your colour scheme, or even your venue.

3. Look for a cake designer who specialises in the style of cake you're looking for. If you have your heart set on a chocolate wedding cake, for example, find a chocolate expert.

4. When choosing your cake designer, ask to see examples of cakes they have already made and be sure to have a taste - it's important that a cake tastes as good as it looks!

5. When it comes to the cake filling, while fruit cake is the traditional choice, there are many other options such as carrot cake, lemon cake, and, of course, chocolate. You might even decide to have a different flavour for each tier!
