Donut Centerpiece

Maria, on March 10, 2019 at 3:44 PM Posted in Wedding Reception 0 21
I am having a Coffee themed wedding. I really like the donut hole centerpieces and donuts with coordinating wedding colors. Has anyone done this? Or edible centerpieces??? Pros vs Cons? Any opinions as a guest would be appreciated as well. I want to incorporate some floral and candles as well.

    A coffee themed wedding?!? I want to go to this wedding! I also love donuts so I would be 100% on board with this. The only con, and this is kind of a big one, donuts dry out very quickly and if you have them out in the open, they'll go stale very fast.

    Put the donuts in nice looking covered dessert stands!

    Omg can I PLEASE PLEASE COME TO TOUR WEDDING?!? 😍 I love the covered cake plate idea. You could get different ones from stores like Ross and Goodwill. And have little coffee cups as favors around the bases or something? Omg what a great idea! Will you have coffee cake as well?!?

    I love this idea! One wedding I attended had a cake at each table for the centerpiece. The couple had those cakes instead of a larger wedding cake. I think most people enjoyed it, but I think there was a lot of leftover/wasted cake.

    Hmm... Do you want the donuts to be edible? Is this a DIY project?

    I mentioned something like this to FH and he vetoed it right away and no amount of pins on pinterest could convince him.

    Here are some of the ideas I had pinned.

    Love the ideas!!! Definitely going to tie in the flowers and maybe add greenery under the cake plate. Donut holes should hold up well!

    Yeah... my fiance was sceptical too but, honestly it fits the theme and it makes sense to me. So I am going for it.

    Those are so cute! Yeah, my FH thought it was odd Smiley laugh But, I honestly may do the glass covered cake stand , So I can decorate underneath it. Also, my aunt suggested after the donuts empty out to remove stands and replace with large candles. I think that was the concern that my FH had but, honestly after dinner.. who cares??? Smiley laugh

    Aww!! Thank you! Coffee cake would be delicious! I am considering coffee cups as favors with local roaster beans and Hot Chocolate for non- coffee drinkers.

    Thanks for that! I honestly didn't think of this. Favoring the covered cake stand now, instead of out in the open.

    Definitely, incorporating coffee beans! Just not sure if I am doing a cute coffee quote on party favor- coffee bean bags or placing in candles yet...
