Wedding Cake Toppers Are Making a Comeback

Michele Arrowsmith- Rowe
For awhile the traditional bride and groom cake topper was replaced with simple flowers. Since it is the year of "personalizing" your wedding, couples are bringing back the cake topper. From monograms, comical customized figurines, sayings, or thematic pieces, couples are finding fun ways to express themselves!

Nothing is more personalized than the couples monogram! Right? So, it is not surprising to find that the monograms are seen everywhere in weddings this year. So, why not include it on the cake? Before, couples were already adding their monogram as part of their cake design. Now, with tight wedding budgets, couples are purchasing collectible monogram cake toppers. Why not? Instead of eating it, you have something special left over to decorate your home! Go to www.theknot.com for a nice selection of inexpensive monogram cake toppers.

Are you known as a funny couple? Have a private joke? Or, having a unique themed wedding? If you have a sense of humor, why not show it! Couples are now expressing this through comical customized figurines! The most popular cake top is the bride dragging the groom down the aisle. If you are interested in this cake top or looking for another funny figurine, go to www.weddingcollectibles.com. They have a wide selection of funny and unique collection of cake toppers!

Do you like sayings or positive affirmations? Why not add them to your cake? How about saying, "I Do!" Again, www.theknot.com has a nice selection of cake top affirmations!

Whether it's the economic turmoil or couples just wanting a unique way to express their personalities, brides and grooms are now replacing the ordinary flowers for that "special" cake topper. Look at this way - -you'll have a "treasure," at the end of your event, to remember your special day! Even if it says, "I do!"
