 |  Published in Wedding Drinks & Food


A wedding cake can be elegant and beautiful on your memorable wedding day. Since old times, wedding cake toppers have been an important tradition in wedding ceremonies – whether there are one or more layers of the wedding cake. Over time, this tradition has become even more important. Many styles and designs of the wedding cake toppers have changed accordingly. Some would want their wedding cake toppers to make the enhancement of the decors of the wedding cake. Sometimes, the cake topper is a prerequisite before entirely decorating the cake. It can be of different purposes – a statement that reflects a personal style of the couple, speak of the vision of the marriage, but sometimes, it simply is for decorations alone.

There are many cake toppers you can choose from, depending on your personal preferences and your wedding theme. A crystal wedding cake topper can be a good choice. It can be of different sizes and shapes. The cake topper is made of crystal, and will provide a unique look which can be also be Swarovski crystal, for a more elegant look. If you will have an antique-themed wedding, a vintage wedding cake topper can be purchased from antique shops. You can also ask your parents and relatives if there is one that has been long used by the family. Usually, they are designed as two love birds, doves, big hearts, hearts intertwined in wood, and sometimes porcelain.  If a couple is having a military wedding they can have a themed wedding according to their profession. A military cake topper may be a figurine of a soldier couple, in their uniforms, weapons, military planes, etc. If you want the very romantic beach wedding, your wedding cake topper can be designed as two dolphins kissing forming a heart shape, acrylic celebration circle, and many more. Lastly, you may also opt for a more religious wedding cake topper design, in accordance to the holiness of the wedding ceremony. It can be birds with a cross, or a bible with a love verse written on it, to name a few.
