Preparation
As I’ve just said: you needn’t a stylist for designing your dessert table. Even if you aren’t able to style a dessert table yourself on the big day, ask a trusted family member or friend for help.
Set up a trial run of the jars, platters, backdrop and signage beforehand and you take plenty of photos. Then give them the pics and voila!

Serving
Speaking of table decor, continue the color scheme and style that you’ve chosen for the wedding. Make your dessert table a continuation of your wedding decor. Desserts look best displayed at varying heights and depths. Think three dimensionally – place some desserts or candy jars behind each other. If you are serving donuts, try a trendy donut wall. Doing these things will add visual interest to the table and stop it from looking sparse. Add some scoops and tongs of various kinds to keep your guests’ hands clean. For guests who prefer to take a sweet treat home for later, provide some pretty bags with an attached thank you card.
Provide your guests with a variety of foods, flavors and candies so they can decide just how much sweetness they want to indulge in.

Signage
Place a sign to attract attention to your dessert table, it’s always a good idea. You should also place smaller signs or toppers on the candy and desserts helps guests identify what they are eating.
go creative with signs choosing various quotes and phrases that you like
add toppers and markers to all the treats to mark them if there’s no place fo signs
and you may change names of the sweets any time

The Wedding Cake
Wedding cakes now are often statement pieces that highlight wedding decor and theme. Use your cake as the focal point of the dessert table. Raise it up on a cake stand, center it in the middle of the table and then style the rest of your desserts around it.
highlight your wedding cake placing it on the tallest stand that you have
display your cake at its best and place it higher than the other sweets you serve
if you don’t have a cake but pies, display them on similar stands and highlight them
