Cupcakes instead of wedding cake

I wanted to see if anyone knew of a great place to get cupcakes made. I do not want a traditional wedding cake but instead I want cupcakes... any ideas?

I don't know how much you want to spend but there is a few places in manhattan that specialize in cupcakes, it's all they make. But they're about $3.50 a cup cake, I think the name of the one I'm thinking of is crumbs

I'm getting hungry just thinking about it, here is their website

Just checked it out.. yum.. looks great! How much are wedding cakes.. is $3.50 a cupcake too much??

I've seen bakeries charge $7 a slice for the wedding cake so i don't think $3.50 a cupcake is that bad! And I just checked the website, only the specialty cupcakes are that much, everything else is cheaper.

Hey if you want info FM me...I gave out cupcakes as favors for my e-party...I tried all the popular cupcake places such as magnolias, buttercup and all those big named places and wasn't impressed...the place i got them from has amazing cupcakes seriously, so delicious...And theyhave everything, regular cupcakes, red velvet, oreo, peanut butter, pistachio and a bunch more...I paid just a little over $1 for each cupcake since i bought so many they gave me a deal.
