Wedding Cake Topper


Choosing your wedding cake topper can be as important as choosing your unusual wedding cake.  I mean you went through all the trouble to pick out the best cake for you and your guests, now you can't just slap any old bride and groom cake topper from a plastic bag that says, "Made in China".  Don't you deserve your very own, unique wedding cake topper?  It could be funny or related to your theme or something unique about you and your spouse-to-be.  Sure a custom wedding cake topper will cost more than one from the dollar store, but we are not talking about breaking the bank.  This isn't like the cost difference between a Vera Wang Wedding Dress and one from TJ Maxx. You've gone this far, what's another $20 or so?! Shall we brainstorm?

Some of the common categories include traditional, monogram and glass which can be hand blown, Quinceanera glass, a glass-linked heart and or personalized.

Sculpted - Professional sculptor artists create figurines that look like you using a provided photograph of your and your significant other.

Ethnic - African American, Latino, Indian, Asian, Interracial, you name the ethnicity and there's a topper out there for you.

Theme - Western, beach, sports, movies, military, hobby, Cinderella, animals, musicans, vehicles,  doves, Disney, butterflies, camping, vintage, basically whatever you can dream up, you can have a topper to match it. You can even have toppers made with Swarovski crystals if you like.

If you have a themed wedding, choose a similar themed topper such as the bride and groom in beach attire for a beach wedding.  To find more theme cake toppers go to Wedding Cake Topper from Wedding Mountain.

Now, you can find theme wedding cake toppers all over the place without having to get any more special than that.  Below there are some examples of cake toppers that may suit your tastes and match your wedding cake design.

But if you do want to go one step further, try out a custom topper.  You will have to order in advance and depending upon how busy the vendor is which may mean months in advance of your wedding.  Custom wedding cake toppers are typically going to cost you more as well.

Here is one place with an odd name, Thumb Print Kids, that does custom toppers and looks like they do a pretty good job replicating the look of the bride an groom from photos. Go here, Custom Wedding Cake Topper for examples - be sure to click on the photos to see the details.  The downside - this place needs your order at least 3 months in advance and says most customers will book up to a year in advance. Oh, and one more thing, a bride and groom order costs $2,9000.  Now this is contradictory to what I said about not having to break the bank.  Personally, I think that's a crazy amount of money for what you are getting, but if you have the cash - go for it!
