There are other options. I found these sweet treats online and thought they'd be a wonderful idea if you were going for something a little more modern than the staple wedding cake.

Even if you do want a traditional wedding cake, there's no stopping you from having a candy bar or serving your guests something other than wedding cake.
Cupcake towers are very popular and can fit into a brides budget much better than $4/ slice of cake.
I love the parfait bar. This is a much more healthy treat for guests and they'll feel like they are getting spoiled. This would also work great if you do a post-wedding brunch in the morning.
The pretty coconut balls would be beautiful for a bridesmaid luncheon to finish off the day & cookies are always a nice and yummy treat for guests.
Still wondering what cake balls are? Some do these with cake and others brownies. You would make a whole batch of cake or brownies, crumble them into bits and roll into balls. Make a chocolate (white or dark) to dip or pour onto the balls. Decorate to your liking and place in candy cups. It's a DIY cake-ball project anyone can do. I've also seen people put their cake balls on sticks, like a pop treat.
