Fountain Wedding CakesFountain Wedding Cakes are beautiful, elegant and certainly ostentacious! Usually reserved for more larger cakes, you can certainly still use them with smaller wedding cakes as well. 
Make sure that you tell your baker the vision that you have for your wedding cake with a fountain. There are actually a few different ways that you can use a fountain with your cake...and they all don't need water!Whether you choose round, square or something out of the ordinary, fountains will certainly dress up your wedding cake, create interest and really make it unique. Fountains also have a way of creating movement, much in the same way as adding long grasses to bridal bouquets and other decorations will. Here are some of the cakes I found on a great site called Cake Central. Just click on the image and it will take you to the submission page so you can get all the details on how it was created. Examples of Fountain Wedding Cakes:
A classic fountain cake along with stairs and pillars. Made with buttercream icing, this is usually what is envisioned with a fountain! 
There are actually 11 different cakes here along with a beautiful lighted fountain. Each cake is a different flavor and everything is buttercream except for the roses on the tops, between layers, and around the fountain, which are gumpaste brushed with luster dust. Beautiful! The water in the fountain was tinted to match the wedding colors, the ivy was silk. Another interesting thing about this cake is that the fountain was used as a topper! 
A lovely wedding cake with a fountain using stairs with cake topper in the middle and fountain below. This cake was made using two 14" tiers and two 11" tiers all made with buttercream icing. This beautiful, majestic cake is all buttercream with teal (wedding colours) buttercream roses. Tall pillars accomodate the beautiful fountain at the bottom. 
There are three center cakes with two 2-tier side cakes. All cakes are iced with a buttercream icing. All the cakes and fillings were different...ranging from yellow cake with a lemon filling, white cake with strawberry filling and chocolate cake with a mocha/oreo filling. The fresh flowers, bridesmaids (on stairway) and fountain all match the colors of the wedding decor. Classic! A beautiful wedding cake with a fountain. Notice how the water was tinted to match the colors of the cake/wedding party. 
I've included this cake just to show you that you do not have to physically have a fountain and running water to created the illusion of movement and flow. Here, a fountain of beads is being used, but you can easily find cake jewellery or crystals to use instead. Simply beautiful! 
A whimsical cake made with fondant, gumpaste/fondant mix for fountain, flowers and stone and piping gel and wires for water. Another way to give the illusion of water and a fountain without physically having them!
