Wedding cake toppers didn´t used to be as important for weddings as they are now. More and more they are becoming as vital as the wedding cake itself and are one of the quickest growing areas for the wedding gift market.
Once over, wedding cake toppers just used to be in the form of a generic bride and groom couple. Now, though a wedding cake topper can be custom designed to the bride and groom’s requirements which really makes the wedding cake even more unique. Personalised wedding cake toppers that are made from clay or sugar paste can be crafted to look like copies of the happy couple even right down to their wedding day outfits. Grooms can be styled wearing kilts, military uniforms or their favourite football team kit! Brides can be made wearing their wedding dresses, veils and tiaras and even hair styles and the type and colour of flowers used in their bridal bouquet.
They can even be themed around the time of year that they are getting married such as Christmas or if it is a beach wedding in an exotic location. Relatives and beloved pets can be added for that unique touch. Many of the more popular cake toppers seem to be funny and humourous to reflect the bride and groom’s personalities.
Once the wedding cake is long gone a cake topper can be kept as a very special memento of one of the most special days a couple will ever share. A new trend that is only just catching on in 2010 is for a monogrammed wedding cake topper. This kind of wedding cake decoration is believed to have started from the USA and very few British and European retailers seem to have them available yet! They are usually crafted from brushed steel or acrylic and all of the letters of the alphabet and some numbers are available. Monogram wedding cake toppers usually include the initials of the wedding couple i.e. ´M & P´.
What makes them really special though and what I believe is driving their popularity is that they are hand decorated with Swarovski crystals which match your wedding day theme. These crystal cake toppers really do create the ´wow´ factor sat on the top of your wedding cake to really add some bling!
There is a wedding cake topper matching every taste and every budget!
