3. Dessert Tables with Personality
Tiered cakes aren’t going away, but they’re sharing the spotlight with nostalgic sweets like mini pies, bundt cakes, and cookie bars. At Thistledome House Wedding Venue: We’ve seen couples style gorgeous dessert tables with vintage cake stands, lace linens, and florals straight from local farms.
4. Live Music, Elevated
