There are lots of options for weddings at event centers these days, some traditional and some more modern. These modern options include desserts like donuts, cupcakes and more.

There are lots of options for weddings at event centers in McAllen, TX these days, some traditional and some more modern. Brides can go more non-traditional dresses in fun colors or shapes, grooms can have female groomsmen, and couples can choose a non-traditional dessert.

There’s nothing wrong with a big, traditional white wedding cake. But for those couples who’ve never really liked cake or want to be more original, there are plenty of other options. Here are some ideas for modern wedding desserts to give you some inspiration:

Cupcakes – Fun and definitely modern, cupcakes are taking the wedding scene by storm. Cupcakes are similar to cake, but they allow the bride and groom to have a big mix of flavors rather than choosing just one cake flavor. Cupcake also allow for more dietary restriction accommodations, like some gluten-free and some dairy-free.

Pies – Cake isn’t the only delicious dessert out there. Some people just love pie! If you and your partner are pie people, go ahead and have pie instead of wedding cake. You can choose a bunch of different flavors or go for a lot of just one favorite flavor. You can also get mini pies for added fun and flair.

Donuts – Donuts aren’t just for the morning anymore. Donuts are a great wedding dessert at any time of day. However, almost nothing beats a brunch wedding with a massive, Instagram-worthy donut wall. A table display is also fun, as you can arrange the donuts by flavor or into a special design like your initials or a heart.

Ice Cream – Set up a DIY ice cream sundae bar with tons of different flavors, toppings and candy so guests can scream for ice cream just like when they were kids. Choose two or three flavors of ice cream to keep costs down, and then have fun with toppings like whipped cream, chocolate sauce, sprinkles, and cherries.

Candy Bar – Go straight for the sugar with a candy bar or table. Set out a variety of chocolates and candies to please every sweet tooth. Plus, big bowls of colorful candy look great in pictures.

Macarons – Add some French flair to your wedding with macarons. They are easily stackable into a large design or structure, which makes for a lovely reception centerpiece. Also, you can get macarons in a wide range of flavors and combinations. Some bakeries even create custom flavors for weddings.

A Variety – Can’t pick a favorite? Get a variety! You can have a little bit of everything from cheesecake and tiramisu to pies, donuts and ice cream. After all, it’s your wedding.

The dessert at your wedding is a great opportunity to show off your personality and have some fun. Don’t be afraid to go away from the traditional cake with one of these ideas.
