Non-Traditional Cake Toppers

The miniature bride and groom that sit atop the wedding cake are as much of a tradition of a wedding as the Bride’s white dress. While some brides opt for a different color wedding dress, so are couples choosing something different besides the standard cake topper.

Some items that have adorn the top of wedding cakes include flowers. Flowers that are used in the wedding can also become part of the cake topper. Using flowers instead of the traditional cake topper can help to make it more personal especially if the couple has a favorite flower that is sentimental to them.

Another popular non-traditional cake topper is icing. It’s amazing what can be created with icing from flowers to ribbons. Icing will blend in with the cake nicely and can be a more subdued than a cake topper for the minimalist bride and groom.

Some other cake topper ideas include a engraved cake topper to mark your wedding day. This beautiful etched glass comes in oval, square, or heart-shaped. Have a cake topper that after the wedding can be displayed on a shelf in your home.

Choosing a wedding cake topper should refect your personal tastes. It will be a momento from your wedding so make sure it’s one that you really like and will enjoy.
