Hearts and weddings go hand-in-hand. They are an easy detail to decorate with from wearing a piece of heart jewelry to embossing hearts on your invitations and thank you cards. And since the way to a man's heart is through his stomach, feed your groom some heart shaped wedding cake.

You can have your cake tiers shaped like hearts and frosted in red and pink, and use decorative swirls in the contrasting color or tie the tiers together with swirls of white. Have your cake decorated separate the tiers with cake posts so that your guests are able to see the shape of the heart more clearly. Or offer each guest a personal molten chocolate heart shaped cake or a heart soufflé for a dessert twist.

You can have a traditional tiered wedding cake decorated with sugar hearts or have a heart pattern stamped into your fondant. A heart wedding topper can be made out of blown sugar. This is a delicate and ultra cool cake decoration. Another contemporary topper is a heart shaped piece of crystal with your initials etched into. Either is a perfect way to decorate your cake and add a heart theme.

A heart shape cake is appropriate for a wedding in any month, but if you and your groom have chosen the most romantic month of February, use Valentine's Day as inspiration. Have your heart shaped cake decorated to look like a box of Valentine's chocolates, or better yet, have boxes of chocolates on the tables. Rather than a large cake, have heart cupcakes with a small conversation heart as a tiny Valentine's Day detail or your initials scripted on the frosting.
Heart shaped cakes are a symbol of romance and love, and with this theme at your wedding, you won't just feel like a princess, but the Queen of Hearts!
