Cake Topper Indecisiveness...

kerrbear373 · August 2014

Hi all!

You know that buzzfeed post about extroverted problems? Where you need to discuss an opinion with several people before you realize what you actually think? (http://www.buzzfeed.com/jessicamisener/frustrating-things-about-being-an-extrovert)... Well, I'm struggling now with deciding on cake toppers (and well, every other decision about my upcoming wedding).

That being said, I'd love to hear what you ladies (and any gents out there) think about these:

OR do you have any other suggestions for where I can something cute and under $100?

ALL feedback is helpful, so please ... CHAT!

I think those are cute, though I like the first one much better. It's more elegant and cheaper.

I prefer the second one.

I'd pick the first one. The second looks like Precious Moments dolls, which always look really childish to me - i.e. doesn't really scream "adults getting married".

I did a quick google and, for a beachy wedding (I'm assuming b/c of option #1), I liked:

It doesn't have to fit your theme, either. If you want to pick any old cake topper and then have the cake decorator add elements of your theme in other places on the cake, I think you'll still accomplish your goal, but you'll have more options to choose from.

DEFINITELY the first one!

Thanks! I think I do like the elegance of the first one (it fits everything else better), but I love the idea of personalizing the 2nd one, with a short bride and including our cat - it's more fun!

I LOVE the polymer clay toppers, and thought about getting one myself. I love how they're so cartoonish, that's totally my style.

This is why I prefer the second one. It is a cake topper so why not have a little fun with it? It doesn't have to match the rest of your wedding.

ETA: and since it is custom no one else will have one exactly like you.

The second one is adorable!

I prefer no topper. Flowers would be really pretty and inexpensive.

I like #2 the most. It's fun and unique.

Me too. Or, at least, I'm not a fan of toppers with a bride and groom. It feels antiquated to me. We had a decorate ribbon made of fondant on the top of our cake.

I like the first one the best.

Jen4948 · August 2014

Hard to say. Neither is really my style. I guess I like the second a little better, although I agree that the first is more elegant.

We got a custom topper from Lovebird Goods (etsy sellers). I never thought we'd be really into a cake topper, but they super personalized us to match our hair/eye colors and outfits, even bouquet and bout, plus we got our dogs made too. We're super nerding out over it .

Let your FI pick when you're not sure what to do.

I personally think people wedding toppers are a little outdated even if they are custom to you and your husband. I would just keep it simple with interlocking hearts or flowers. Good luck!

I also am not fond of the bride and groom cake toppers. I used a company called Personal Etchings since I wanted something with swans and personalized. The woman etches your names and date onto acrylic designs. I found exactly what I was looking for and now have it displayed next to one of our wedding pictures. I think I paid about $40.
