Wedding Cake Toppers!

What is a wedding cake topper, can you eat them, where do you get them from, just a few answers to your questions!

What are wedding cake toppers, where do you buy them from, why are they important or even are they important, a short explanation for some of your wedding cake topper questions for those that don’t know!  This will probably be on the grooms side, but don’t be embarrassed if you’re a bride and haven’t got a clue about wedding cake toppers, you're not alone!

Wedding cake toppers are exactly just that, something that goes on the top of your wedding cake! They are typically figurines that are hand crafted and hand made that are images of the bride and groom usually ascertained from photographs of the happy couple! The obvious question for those not in the know, can you eat them, they look so nice! No, so don’t try, they are usually made from a non toxic modelling clay so if your newly wedded husband has decided to eat yours, don’t worry, he’ll still be here tomorrow! The idea behind these is that you can keep the wedding cake toppers as momentos of your wedding day cake, should you wish to!  Thus, if it does get mistakenly eaten, you can usually get a replica made.

Where do you get a wedding cake topper from? There are many web based companies that are specialist wedding cake topper makers in the UK, USA and other countries. They have endless experience in creating clay figurines not only of the bride and groom but also of many other aspects that could reflect the happy couples lives. This could be some specific object that reflects their history such as a famous landmark, a sporting object such as a rugby ball or just about anything else that relates to the happy couple.

Wedding cake toppers are very personal as to whether you like them or not, they are not an essential part of any wedding but are a modern addition if they suit your tastes. They are certainly becoming a more popular addition with an increasing proportion of wedding cakes now having a topper, perhaps they are even now seen as the norm. Whatever your views, toppers allow you to add something unique to your wedding cake, humorous, romantic, reflective or loving, they give you an opportunity to show your style of relationship as a married couple to the rest of the world.
