DIY Cupcake Stand - Wedding

 
 I was married in April of this year to the man of my dreams.  Planning and preparing for our wedding was a great adventure in creativity and in the end we were so fortunate to have an amazing and elegant day that went of without a hitch.  We did as much as we could ourselves (from creating this cupcake stand to building a wedding arch) in order to stretch our budget as far as possible.  I look forward to sharing information about our wedding projects!





 The base of our cupcake stand is made of hat boxes from The Creative Bag Company.  I purchased small vases from Dollarama, filled them with wine corks and glued these to the bottom of silver plastic chargers, in order to make a sturdy second tier. Finally I found a small cake plate at Homesense and an initial cake topper from Party City to present a small cutting cake. 
 


 
Though we did not incorporate a great deal of color into our wedding décor, we did allow the cupcakes to stand out by choosing a wide variety of flavors from a local bakery (that has a great gluten-free selection) For the Love of Cake.  The cupcakes were absolutely delicious and looked stunning!
