Choosing the perfect wedding cake is far more than just its taste. Between size, design and your favorite flavors, you also want it to look as beautiful as you do on your wedding day. A cake topper allows you to add your own personal touch to your wedding cake with a variety of options to fit your special day. Whether you go with a traditional silhouette or something more personalized, these are some of our favorite wedding cake toppers.
Make a Statement
Make a statement with your cake topper with a design from NgoCreations. Their cake toppers are made by laser cutting and woodworking each individual piece so you know you’re getting something special. This team of two set up their Etsy shop on Christmas Day back in 2013. Real life couple Ricky and Christina work together to design, create and ship every piece from scratch. Each of their wedding cake toppers is made to help create a lasting memory of your special day that you can hold on to forever.
Add Photos
Looking for more of a fun, DIY cake topper that doesn’t break the bank? Add your very own photos to your wedding cake! Whether you choose photos of the two of you together or individually, this is a great way to show off your personalities and really make the cake your own. You can even choose a funny photo of a moment you both cherish or grab a candid Polaroid to top your tasty cake.
Start Sparkling
Add a little extra sparkle to your wedding day with this ‘Sparkling Stars’ cake topper from Madeline Trait. Crafted from wood plywood and gold glitter, this topper stands at more than 8 inches tall and 7 inches wide. You’ll also find a not-so-hidden message of “Just Married” in the shooting star display. You can even keep your cake topper long after your wedding by framing it, placing it in a scrapbook or simply displaying it around your home!
Chop Some Wood
For weddings with a more rustic and outdoorsy theme, these wooden toppers are perfect for your cake. Handmade by A Life So Simple, each topper is individually carved with a phrase of your choosing. The most popular design is Mr. & Mrs. but you can also choose your initials or a cute saying. You can even engrave them with numbers and use them as table markers to create a cohesive theme!
Customized Silhouette
A modern take on a vintage classic, a silhouette cake topper can be fun and personable. Choose a photo you love to create your silhouette or go with a traditional cutout design. Many shops will often let you personalize your silhouettes as well, such as Simply Silhouette Weddings. Make a silhouette from your very own photos, choose your favorite colors and styles, and even add your pets to the cake topper! You can also keep your silhouette as a special remembrance of your wedding day.
