Donut Displays

Donut displays are a fun, hands-on way to present your wedding dessert and have guests pick their own wedding treat right off the display. Just like many popular desserts, donuts offer so much variety. Donut icing can range to match your wedding colors, and flavors can range from plain to your personal favorite flavors, be that blueberry or chocolate sprinkled. Donuts as a wedding treat offer another fun personalization: they can be shaped into letters of your choosing, whether that’s your new last name or “Mr. and Mrs.” If you choose a donut wall as your specialty option through one of our wedding packages, our handmade wood donut wall rental matches our wood Barn venue to tie in perfectly with your wedding reception.

Candy Bars

A candy bar is a fun, colorful addition for wedding treat selections. Similar to a dessert bar, with a candy bar, you can choose to display many different flavors, or just your favorites for a more personal touch. Guests will enjoy choosing their own treats to snack on, and can load up a custom candy platter. Magnolia Bells offers decor rentals including glass jars, vases, stands, and tubs to display your candy of choice for guests to easily choose from. Candy wedding bars are a fun way to add a variety of treats to your wedding reception.

Wedding Cakes

When considering what desserts to include on your wedding day, don’t overlook a classic wedding cake. This traditional cake offers so much variety in the tiers, colors, textures, and flavors you can choose to personalize your wedding cake. Whether you choose to feature just a wedding cake or surround your cake with other desserts, guests will enjoy seeing this classic wedding dessert on display. Plus, a wedding cake lets you and your guests experience the classic cake cutting moment! At Magnolia Bells, we offer a variety of cake stand decor rentals to highlight your dessert centerpiece in our Barn wedding venue.

Sweet Cupcakes

Cupcakes at your wedding are a delicious handheld dessert option, whether you’re unsure about a whole wedding cake or looking for something to add to your cake display. Just like with cakes, cupcakes offer a variety in colors, designs, and flavors to complement any wedding vision. Cupcakes already being miniature desserts means they’re ready to serve to guests, no cake cutting required. Our cake and dessert stand decor rentals display these desserts so that they’re picture-perfect before being served on your special day.

Poppin’ Popcorn

Whether you choose sweet or savory flavors (or both!), popcorn is a fun snack to mix into your treat options. Guests will enjoy snacking on popcorn throughout your wedding reception when they take a quick break from celebrating to recharge. At Magnolia Bells, our decor rentals include several large tubs, frames, and stands to display your favorite flavors of popcorn for guests to choose from. Popcorn is a tasty treat for your wedding day, and for guests to take home at the end of your wedding reception.

Wedding Cookies

For a bite-sized wedding treat, consider adding cookies to your wedding day. You can’t go wrong with a classic chocolate chip cookie batch, or choosing to decorate cookies with personalized icing to further your wedding theme. Stacked cookies even make a delicious non-traditional wedding cake option. Share your favorite cookie flavors for guests to choose from, or offer dozens of options for guests to create custom cookie plates for an interactive dessert. Cookies even make sweet thank you gifts for guests to take home at the end of the night.

Honey Butter Chicken Biscuits

Does anything say Whatawedding more than Whataburger catering for a late night snack? For a more savory wedding treat, consider adding honey butter chicken biscuits to your end of night snack selections. These snacks complement any Texas wedding, and pair perfectly with details like Whataburger table numbers or customized bag packaging. Wedding guests will truly enjoy this Texas staple to keep them energized for the dance floor during a wedding reception full of celebration.

Pie Desserts

Pie at weddings is a sweet treat, whether replacing other dessert options or adding to the choices on your wedding day. Though not a traditional wedding cake, pies still offer the classic “cake” cutting moment as well to create unforgettable memories and photos. Pies offer so much variety in flavor and design, and can be a festive wedding dessert for holiday weddings especially. Our cake stand decor rentals at Magnolia Bells are also perfect for displaying pies, whether full-sized or bite-sized, for your guests to enjoy.
