From the city chic wedding, to the rustic country wedding, plan every detail to contribute to the overall theme you want for your wedding. Creating an atmosphere is all about the details; whether it’s the decor, the location, or just the cake topper, realizing your wedding day vision is an exciting task.
This year, we’re seeing some new trends in wedding cake toppers, not to mention a twist on some timeless classics. No matter what your wedding theme might be, and no matter what cake topper you might choose, every bride and groom-to-be should remember one thing: make it personalized. After all, without personalization, your cake topper is just a generic item with little meaning. Whether it’s incorporating your wedding colors, using a monogram, or adding your likeness, personalized cake toppers are always “in”.

Monogramming is by far the most popular personalization option for weddings, and has been a long standing tradition that is still holding strong today. Debuting your initials for the first time as a married couple is not only a point of pride, but it can also be incorporated into many details in your reception: none more prominent than your cake topper. Monogram cake toppers are a classic yet modern alternative to the traditional bride and groom “figures”. Easily suited to any type of cake, or cupcake stand, letter initials are a chic and simple cake topper idea for any wedding. Here are just a few examples of fun, modern and personalized wedding cake toppers that suit any theme.
Looking to keep it simple? Try a unique new trend and add a tiny bunting banner to the top of your cake. Personalize it with your initials, last name, or stick to your wedding colors for a fun, sweet, vintage take on the traditional cake topper options. This is a great option for those already looking to use bunting flag banners as decor for their reception, which is another hot trend in weddings this year.
If you like the idea of a bride and groom cake topper, why not go for one with a modern twist? Bird cake toppers are very popular this year, adding a rustic and vintage touch to the traditional cake topper tradition. Personalize them with your wedding’s colors, and even have them made in your own likeness (including suit and tie and birdcage veil!) for a fun and sweet touch.
Despite the wide variety of traditions, beliefs, and preferences, wedding cake toppers are a detail every bride and groom-to-be can enjoy.
