Wedding Cakes Toppers Guide
A wedding cake topper is traditionally a figurine of a bride and groom that is placed as you would on top of the wedding cake.
A cake is not complete without a topper of some sort. There are lots to choose from though and in more modern weddings there are certainly some unique options out there. Every year there are new innovative designs which makes the topper choice larger every year.
Remember though that you can make the choice of how simple or extravagant your wedding topper is going to be, if you prefer tradition then you will not be able to go wrong with a bride and groom.
Monograms
Weddings are increasingly having monograms on the top of cakes. These usually appear more in spring and summer weddings. You can ask your bakery to make a sugar monogram design and incorporate little sugar rosettes as decoration.
One of the most popular choices are the single initials of the bride and grooms first names or one single initial of the new surname. If you are having an elegant wedding cake then wedding toppers encrusted with crystals will be an excellent choice.
