Many couples opt to use custom wedding cake toppers as a sentimental keepsake honoring their special day. Others see them as an added expense and dust collector. Your wedding cake will be beautiful no matter what you decide, so go with what works best for you.
Wedding cake toppers come in hundreds of sizes, shapes, and materials. From the traditional resin molds of bride and groom to simple glass etchings, if you look around enough you're bound to find one that's right for your wedding cake. Consider your wedding theme, and choose a unique wedding cake topper that is complimentary to your theme and colors.
Modern bridal trends are veering away from the traditional topper pieces and opting for a softer, more natural feel. Flowers, fresh fruit, and satin bows add a refreshing touch of elegance to many cake designs. Let your cake design determine what type of wedding cake toppers, you should have. Or if you've found a topper you can't live without, design your cake around it.
Do you or your fiance have a special family heirloom that you love but has no particular use? Consider incorporating this by making a custom cake topper. Lockets, perfume bottles, pill boxes, tiaras, antique china tea cups, dinner bells, and flower vases can all be transformed into unique wedding cake toppers. Or, consider wedding cake toppers that represent your cultural heritage.
If sentimentality insists that you use wedding cake toppers, but a topper doesn't seem to fit in with your design scheme, not to worry. Wedding cake toppers don't have to go on top of the wedding cake. Unique wedding cake toppers have come a long way. Many are sleek and modern-looking and can easily be wedding decorator items on their own. Place them next to the cake for an artistic enhancement to your cake table.
Ultimately, remember it's your wedding cake. Use wedding cake toppers that work best for you.
