When it comes to tying the knot, it seems that recently, a lot of couples have been shying away from traditional weddings.

Whether it's ditching the diamond ring for a gorgeous gemstone, swapping out the classic white gown for a colorful wedding dress or opting for a fun choreographed entrance instead of a boring walk down the aisle, we've seen couples find all sorts of ways to put a unique spin on their special day.

If you're looking for a way to add an eye-catching element to your dessert table, you'll be glad to know we recently came across a new wedding cake trend that totally rocks. No, really, I'm serious.
