Preparing for the Season: Winter Wonderland Cake Toppers

Winter Wonderland Cake Toppers: Embrace the Off Season!

Winter Wonderland Cake Toppers

Though it’s still a few months away, winter is an inspiration for brides who are organizing and designing a late-year wedding. And why not? Winter is glossy, bright, and offers opportunities for fireside receptions and adorable fluffy muffs for your bridesmaids. It’s also a great opportunity for winter wonderland cake toppers. How are winter wonderland cake toppers different from your average wedding cake perch? Winter wonderland cake toppers feature a heavy saturation of frosted white and often utilize an abundance of glass and ceramic. They’re beautiful, delicate, and specific to the season. While I don’t recommend sporting winter wonderland cake toppers during the summer months, they aren’t usually out of place between October and February – a time block that is underutilized by brides.   Consider booking a winter wedding – for the sake of the beauty of the season and the beauty of a full wallet. Many venues under-book during these months and the prices will usually fluctuate in your favor. Even if the prices don’t change, your chance of finding something last-minute is greatly increased during the winter months. Winter wonderland cake toppers look even better in a prime venue that didn’t break the bank!

A Fun and Raunchy Bachelorette Party Cake Topper!

Your Options for a Bachelorette Party Cake Topper

Bachelorette Party Cake Topper

If you love fun and novelty wedding cake toppers, but you’re not sure that your wedding is the best venue for one, think about appropriating one as a bachelorette party cake topper. A bachelorette party cake topper is a great opportunity to showcase a cake topper you wouldn’t otherwise be able to enjoy. If grandma isn’t so into the topper that features you grabbing your fiancé’s butt, the girls at your bachelorette party might be a little more open minded. A bachelorette party cake topper can a little raunchy and still be a whole lot of fun.   A bachelorette party cake topper might be a traditional couple (even if they might be displaying a non-traditional amount of PDA) or a single bride figurine. Most wedding cake toppers come in pairs, but it isn’t difficult to find a single bride (or two brides for a joint same-sex marriage) for a bachelorette party cake topper.   If you’re throwing a bachelorette party, a bachelorette party cake topper is always a great addition to the décor, even if you’re going for something minimal. If you aren’t doing a big fancy cake, a bachelorette party cake topper is still a cute addition to a dessert table or cocktail bar. You could even present the bachelorette party cake topper as a gift to the bride. Who knows – she may even be brave enough to feature the bachelorette party cake topper on her big day!

Getting Creative with Birthday Cake Toppers

Finding the Right Birthday Cake Toppers

Birthday Cake Toppers

Not all cake toppers are for weddings and vow renewals; many families chose to celebrate birthdays with a little more enthusiasm and flair than plastic balloons on a Costco sheet cake, and elegant birthday cake toppers are the kind of accessories that set these events apart. Birthday cake toppers aren’t limited to pink floating female figurines, though they certainly are available. Many modern birthday cake toppers might feature a monogram for either the first or family name of the birthday girl. Birthday cake toppers also feature floral arrangements, explosions of tulle and colorful beads, or anything else you can imagine sitting pretty on a beautiful birthday cake. Great options for birthday cake toppers for recipients of any sex (the girl figurines tend to be a little one-sided that way) are glass ornaments that take the place of more traditional birthday cake toppers. These toppers feature the name of the birthday girl (or boy!) and might also display the date and name of the event (Sweet Sixteen, My quinceanera, etc.). These birthday cake toppers may also reflect the birthday theme (autumn, island, etc.). Birthday cake toppers don’t have to be limited to your cheesy plastic selection at the grocery store pastry counter – you just have to take the time to find birthday cake toppers that are right for you!

Everyone loves Sweet Wedding Cake Toppers!

Sweet Wedding Cake Toppers

Wedding Cake Toppers

Long gone are the stoic forward-facing bride and groom figurines of yesteryear’s wedding industry. Today’s wedding cake toppers come in a variety of forms and functions, and there are a growing number of sweet wedding cake toppers dominating the market. Sweet wedding cake toppers embrace the reality of marriage and the lighthearted feel of a wedding day. Instead of a bride and groom looking forward morosely, the bride and groom (or groom/groom bride/bride) of sweet wedding cake toppers play and embrace one another. Finding sweet wedding cake toppers that emulate the playful nature of your relationship is easier than ever.   My favorite sweet wedding cake toppers are those that play with the shape of the table or cake in question. Sweet wedding cake toppers may sit on the edge of the pastry, lean seductively up against it, or otherwise interact with it in a more realistic manner. Your sweet wedding cake toppers can be molded and shaped to fit any environment. Sweet wedding cake toppers also make wonderful gifts for the special couple in your life. Instead of figurines standing unemotionally on the edge of a mantle, sweet wedding cake toppers look as if they’re actually enjoying their time wherever they end up. The couple will project love and happiness in their home when the focal points of their living space are sweet wedding cake toppers.

Finding and Making DIY Wedding Cake Toppers

Using DIY Wedding Cake Toppers

DIY Wedding Cake Toppers

A DIY bride knows that any detail of you wedding is made even more special when you make it yourself. DIY wedding cake toppers are just the same, but you might want to skip trying to mold figures of you and your one-and-only out of clay. If you really want to make DIY wedding cake toppers all they can be, try to add something to an existing cake topper; add something that will take a regular cake topper and make it just for you.   There are many ways you can take generic toppers and make them DIY wedding cake toppers; you are limited only by your imagination. Many brides choose to combine figurines and toppers to make them DIY wedding cake toppers, such as adding figures of your beloved pets or preferred mode of transportation to the top of your fluffy pastry. While you haven't technically made these DIY wedding cake toppers yourself, the combination ends up as something uniquely yours. This also works for mix-and-match cake toppers. Finally, if you are truly crafty, make something uniquely yours as an accompaniment to your DIY wedding cake toppers. Build a bridge or ladder to connect two tiers of cake; use fondant to mold a seat for your figurines; go crazy! DIY wedding cake toppers are DIY for one reason: they came from you and your beautiful brain.

A Vegas Cake Topper - The Perfect Elopement Keepsake

Keeping your Vegas Cake Topper in One Piece

Vegas Cake Topper

When you head out to Las Vegas to get married, you often don't bring much with you. Spur-of-the-moment Vegas brides rarely have the time for pre-wedding parties, fancy wedding favors, or even a bouquet. But if you're thinking about eloping with your one-and-only for an unforgettable (yet not so hard to find) wedding destination in Sin City, you might want to think about bringing a Vegas cake topper with you.   Weddings, no matter the destination, are creators of keepsakes. Even if you don't want the hassle of a traditional pomp-and-circumstance affair, a Vegas cake topper can be your one little reminder of a marriage that will last a lifetime. A Vegas cake topper won't take up much room, will look great in photos, and will act as your piece of personalization to any Vegas wedding package.   When packing your Vegas cake topper, be careful to treat it with more care than your dancing shoes. It would be a shame to have your figurine's head break off on the long drive to glittery matrimony. Keep your Vegas cake topper safe by packing it in your carry-on luggage or in a bag that you know you'll be keeping with you. Don't let your Vegas cake topper - your only keepsake - bite the dust before you say "I do!"

Symbolic Lovebird Cake Toppers

Lovebird Cake Toppers

Finding the right cake toppers for your day can be difficult if you really aren’t interested in traditional toppers.

Lovebird cake toppers fit in perfectly at all kinds of events, from backyard barbeques to fancy loft affairs; every couple can appreciate the simple beauty of lovebird cake toppers.

Lovebird cake toppers look wonderful on cake tables, escort card tables, and even sweetheart tables – don’t feel limited in your placement of these figurines just because they end in the words “cake toppers.” If you’re thinking of gifting lovebird cake toppers to a special couple in your life, pass on how versatile these little figurines are. Lovebird cake toppers don’t have to be used as toppers; they make lovely additions to any home as another symbol of the couple’s undying love for one another.

Get the cake measurements from your baker and have them available when ordering your cheap wedding cake toppers. If the measurements aren't listed on the site, contact the seller and inquire. If you're purchasing your cheap wedding cake toppers before ordering your cake, the same is true - but in reverse!   - Make sure you know how much your cheap wedding cake toppers weigh.
