Why buy a cake topper “off the shelf” so to speak when you can add a bit of personalization to your wedding cake? There are various ways to make your topper unique, such as imprinting your initials, or name, or the wedding date, or “whatever”. Here are a few ideas that we came across that we think you might like. Enjoy…
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
What’s a monogram? Technically speaking, a monogram is a stylistic device composed of small ornaments and letters. The shape is usually a compact square or rectangle.
The very charming Brushed Silver Monograms collection shown in the photo features all 26 capital letters of the English alphabet, and the ampersand (“&”) symbol as well.
Now you can express your creativity and individuality by creating your own cake topper. Why not choose the first letters of your name? For Linda and John, L & J would work just fine…
NOTE: Letters are sold individually.
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Do you like rhinestones? What are they anyway? Well, rhinestones are relatively inexpensive pieces of jewelry, generally made from glass, paste, acrylics, or gem quartz. They were originally rock crystals from the shores of the Rhine River in Austria (hence the name “RHINEstone”).
TheRhinestone Cake Letters topper shown in the photo to the left adds a touch of excitement to any wedding! Comprised of metal letters decorated with Swarovski crystals, it will look amazing amongst the reception decorations. You can customize the look by:
a) pairing two letters with the heart.
b) pairing two letters with the ampersand.
c) Or form a monogram using three letters.
NOTE: Letters are sold individually. See multiple images for alphabet chart.
The letters, heart, and ampersand measure 3 inches tall with 2 1/2 inch spikes.

or
