Now that you have decided on all of the big things like your cake, gown, bridesmaids dresses, caterer, ceremony site, etc…it is time to look for an elegant wedding cake server set.
Check with your family, maybe your mom or grandmother has her set tucked away for safe keeping.
The server set is an important item since it will be prominent in some of your wedding pictures.
One of my nieces was offered a silver serving set by both her grandmother, and her fiance’s grandmother.
To avoid hurt feelings she chose her grandmother’s knife and his grandmother’s vintage server.
Everyone thought it was a great idea and both grandmothers were beaming with pride.
These sets are made from a variety of materials from stainless steel and plastic to silver and gold. Crystal handles can be found on all of the materials used for blades. You can find server sets to fit just about any budget.
Some caterers will supply the cake server set but in my experience most couples will want their own. My friend and her husband use their set every year on their anniversary.
My friend’s mother-in-law gave her 4 son’s fiances a silver handled stainless steel wedding cake server set as part of her shower gifts.
If you have seen a server set that you really want, by all means get it if you can. My sister bought a boxed set that included two champagne glasses and a crystal handled elegant wedding cake server set, as a gift for a friend’s bridal shower.
You may wonder where to buy one of these sets. They are available at discount stores, department stores, gift shops, card shops and some bakeries.
While not an absolute necessity, an elegant wedding cake server adds a special effect to your reception and to your wedding photo album.
