You can add a touch of elegance or even unique style for the top of your wedding cake. Traditionally most brides chose to use the bride and groom formal wedding cake topper or even a fresh array of flowers made by their florist. The beautiful bride and groom topper made from fine china or porcelain was the standard. Ornate and often surrounded by fresh flowers and greens, it made for a great keepsake.

In recent times, brides and grooms have looked outside of the box and have begun to personalize their wedding cakes. Monogram wedding toppers have experienced much growth as a topper. Made from gold platter or sterling silver, these initials of the bride and groom are on long picks to push into the top of the cake. A variety of fonts are available. The script lettering adds a clean and crisp design to the cake, making a simple but classy statement. The initials can also have crystals and gems to enhance the look. Brides are using just the last name initial or the initials of their first names with the last name initial larger.

If you are looking for a more unique topper, you can have one custom designed for you. Many brides and grooms have hobbies or interests that are special to them and they wish to show off their interests through the topper. There are companies that specialize in unique, custom designed toppers. Some companies are able to create a bride and groom topper to look like the bride and groom. Working from a photo provided, they are able to match gowns, faces and formal wear.

You can also have a lot of fun with a wedding topper. Companies specializing in toppers can create the bride and groom playing tennis, or riding horses, playing golf or even surfing. Basing the design on the interests of the bride and groom and making the figures to match their photos create a long lasting and memorable topper. These allow the bride and groom to design their own topper and to have fun doing it.
