Wedding Cake Toppers

When most people think about wedding cake toppers, they think about that little plastic figurines of a bride and groom all dressed up and standing together on top of a wedding cake. This miniature couple is typically standing hand in hand, or perhaps arm in arm. In fact, up until just a few years ago, wedding cakes just didn’t look like wedding cakes without that miniature plastic couple. Luckily, that just isn’t the case anymore. Now, wedding cake toppers come in all kinds of designs, colors, materials, and can be personalized to fit anything you want for your wedding. The last thing that I wanted for my wedding cake was to have it be plain white with that tiny plastic couple on top. Here are some great ideas for personalized wedding cake toppers, as well as why couples would want a wedding cake topper in the first place.

Why Use Wedding Cake Toppers?

Wedding cake toppers are a great way to personalize your wedding cake. It seems a little crazy to say, but wedding cake toppers can add some fun and excitement to any kind of wedding cake.

Not only that, but they are kind of fun to hang onto as keepsakes, perhaps to use at anniversaries in the future, or just as a fond memory. Wedding cake toppers are a great glimpse into who the bride and groom really are, as well as what kinds of tastes in decorating they have.

Personalized Wedding Cake Toppers

As I mentioned above, I wanted to have a wedding cake topper, but I didn’t want it to be the tried and true bride and groom. Instead, I went with a monogram of our new family. Little did I know I was going with a pretty popular theme in wedding cake toppers.  You can also have wedding cake toppers made that actually look like the bride and groom, by sending in current photographs of yourselves. Our personalized wedding cake topper is something that we’ll keep forever, and perhaps use again at one of our milestone anniversaries. It’s nice to know that we have it. There are other ways to personalize wedding cake toppers for your wedding. If both of you like a particular sport, cell phones, or some other fun story you’d like to emphasize, you can find it or special order it on the Internet.
