Wedding cake toppers are one of the most popular ways to decorate wedding cakes.

Using a topper is another way to help continue your theme or add your personality to the most important dessert of the day. And the variety of cake toppers is almost endless! So how does a girl begin to choose? Start by looking at today’s most popular styles to help you make a decision. Flowers, Bride and Groom figures, initials and monograms all have their own charms for you to consider.

Fresh and Sugar Flowers

Flowers have long been popular when it comes to wedding cakes. Sugar flowers are often created by cake decorators to compliment the cake. They can be carefully made to match the flowers used in the wedding exactly. Because they are hand crafted pieces of art, they can become pricey. Fresh flowers are the alternative to handmade sugar blooms. Your florist or your baker can place fresh flowers for you while creating your wedding cake toppers out of flowers.

Bride & Groom Figures

Bride and Groom figurines might be one of the most famous wedding day cake toppers. There are tons of specialty bride and groom figurines – everything from brides on cell phones to fire fighter grooms. And many more quirky figurines are available. There are certainly tons of more classic bride and groom figures as well. And if you’re into the ever popular vintage theme, try an antique bride and groom wedding cake toppers. These can be borrowed of inherited from beloved family members or treasures uncovered from antique shops.
