A sports enthusiast couple planning a wedding may want to bring a little of the passion for a sport or sports team into the celebration. One way of adding a little team cheer without taking over the décor completely is by using a sports related wedding cake topper. A quick search online will turn up hundreds of “sporty” wedding cake toppers to choose from. Here are a few tips on finding the perfect sports themed cake topper for you and your partner.
Start by imagining what the perfect little scene would be to represent your sports passion. Perhaps one of you is totally into a sport and the other deals with it – there are humorous cake toppers showing the groom trying to golf, play hockey etc. with the bride dragging him away.
If you are hopelessly on opposite sides of a sports rivalry, there are online shops that allow you to choose any two major sports teams to be represented along with the bride and groom figurines. The scene usually involves either the bride or groom dragging the other to emphasize the different loyalties.
For those couple lucky enough to be love the same sport there are plenty of wedding cake toppers with the bride and groom happily skiing, playing baseball, etc. These days almost any activity such as surfing, hiking, driving, etc. has been turned into a cute wedding cake topper.
If you really want to create an amazing wedding keepsake, there is also the option of having a personalized wedding cake topper created for you. This process starts with you sending off one or two good photos of yourselves, along with detailed instructions on what activity, pose and clothing you would like to be used for your topper. This is a more expensive option, of course, but some feel it is well worth the extra money to have such a great conversation piece at the reception, as well as a wonderful keepsake of the wedding celebration.
If the $200 plus price tag of the personalized wedding cake topper is more than you want to spend, there are still plenty of options for finding a wedding cake topper that will demonstrate you passion or just be a humorous addition to your celebration. With all the details and drama of planning a wedding, it is fun to add a touch of humor to the décor while making the celebration a reflection of your personalities.
