Make a statement at your wedding reception with a customized wedding cake topper. Until pretty recently the only choices in cake toppers for a wedding were a traditional looking bride and groom or some type of flowers. With the advent of online shopping, the options are now endless. As with all your plans for your true dream marriage and wedding, make your cake display about you and your partner.
For those couples who want to personalize their wedding cake, there are quite a few options. There are companies that will take a photo of a couple and create figurines that look like the bride and groom. You can even get bobbleheads of the bride and groom! If you are looking for funny wedding cake toppers this may be the way to go.
If you decide to go with this option, make sure that you send in good photos that show your faces very clearly. You may want to take some photos just for this purpose. Make sure you allow plenty of time for the custom cake topper to be made – most companies require at least 2 weeks.
Prices for a personalized wedding cake topper begin at about $150. It makes sense to do a little comparison shopping online. Some companies will send a proof for you to look at before they create the final product. You may also want to look for a company that has a lot of good testimonials from previous wedding couples. These one-of-kind wedding cake toppers are something that you will enjoy for a long time.
Monograms are another type of customized wedding cake topper available to the modern bride and groom. You can order a set of initials for the top of the wedding cake or a beautiful glass heart engraved with your names and the date of your wedding. These lovely pieces will also be keepsakes of your wedding day that you will treasure for years to come.
If you are the creative type, you could also attempt to make your own wedding cake topper. Look for some inspiration online and then head over to your local craft store to see what you can put together for a truly personalized top for your cake. If you’re not the artistic type, then perhaps you or your spouse –to-be has a friend or relative who could make a custom topper for you.
Sometimes it is the small finishing touches like the wedding cake topper that really make the wedding day special for the bridal couple.
