If you're planning a ceremony or are just plain curious, these celebrity wedding cakes take the classic matrimony confection to the next level.
Beginning with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, their wedding cake was a staggering five tiers high with a white mousse interior. Next up, the iconic couple Prince William and Kate Middleton had a traditional fruit cake with cream and white icing.
Moving on to a more obscure style, the wedding cake at the marriage of Pete Wentz and Ashlee Simpson featured an Alice in Wonderland theme that was over-the-top with a massive edible hat and pocket watch. In terms of height, Michael Douglas and Catherine Zeta-Jones had a cake at their nuptials that was a staggering 6-ft high, while Prince Edward and Sophie Rhys-Jones "take the cake" with a 10-ft high cake at their wedding.
