How to Choose Toppers for a Wedding Cake

Planning a wedding seems to be one continuous round of decision making. In addition to making a decision about what kind of wedding cake you want, you also need to choose what goes on top of the cake. When choosing toppers for a wedding cake there are few things you should think about.

Do you want your wedding cake topper to be a keepsake?

If you want a keepsake, do you want it to be something that you can proudly display later or just something you can keep in a memory box somewhere?

Will your wedding cake be a traditional tiered cake, or will it be in some other shape?
Will your wedding be based on a theme?

Do you want something traditional and elegant or are you more of a trendsetter and prefer something more whimsical?

All of these questions are asked for one reason, to help you narrow your choices. Let’s look in a few options you can choose from.

Floral Wedding Cake Toppers
Floral toppers are really beautiful and can be as simple or as elaborate as you want. You can choose whenever type of flowers you’d like, in any color you choose. You can choose edible flowers to make serving the cake even easier. Your floral topper can be a simple spray of flowers on the top of the cake or you can have flowers cascading down every tier.

Bride and Groom Toppers
We have all seen the traditional bride and groom cake topper with the bride in a wedding dress and the groom in a tuxedo. If that is what you want there are many beautiful ones to choose from, but if you want something a little different you can find toppers where the bride and groom’s attire is a little less traditional. I have seen beach, golf, motorcycle and many other themed bride and groom toppers. There are quite a few bride and groom toppers that will add a touch of whimsy to your wedding cake.

Themed Wedding Cake Toppers
If your wedding is based on a theme, you should have no problem finding a suitable wedding cake topper. There are toppers available in almost any theme you can imagine, whether it be beach, western, sports, musical or something in between the list goes on and on.

Crystal Cake Toppers
Not only does the crystal topper and elegance to your wedding cake, it also makes a wonderful keepsake. As with many of the other choices, crystal cake toppers are available in many different forms. You will find lots of styles to choose from including hearts, flowers, bells and monogram wedding cake toppers as well as many other choices.

As you can say there’s lots of choices, and no right or wrong, they are all beautiful and will personalize your wedding cake.
