The wedding cake is one of the most important aspects of your wedding day, so ensuring you have the perfect cake to complement your special day should be one of your top priorities for a memorable wedding. There are many different aspects of your wedding cake you have to make decisions on before you can even get the whole thing put together into a masterpiece. Your first big decision comes in deciding whether or not you want to follow traditional standards in choosing your wedding cake. The typical traditional wedding cake is white with pastel decorations with the bride and groom topper.

However, in today’s society, more and more people are turning to non-traditional wedding cakes, which break perceptions as to what a wedding cake should be. In fact, many people serve gourmet wedding cakes, which are both beautiful and tasty at the same time. These gourmet wedding cakes can run in the hundreds of dollars, depending on how many people you need to serve and what type of cake you are looking to have. Aside from the taste of the cake, wedding cakes come in all different shapes and sizes, with many sporting unique toppers, which are available to suit the bride and groom’s tastes.

One of the popular wedding cake toppers in today’s wedding fashion is the monogrammed wedding cake topper. Monogrammed toppers come in many different forms, with lettering in brushed metal or silver and gold highlights, which serve well as the center point of the cake. These toppers look especially nice on cakes, which are brushed with silver or gold dust in order to highlight the unique decorations. Aside from decorations, you can also choose the font you want to use for the initials. Whether you go with a classic or contemporary font, be sure the monogramming suits both yours and the grooms taste, as you want your cake to represent you both.

While you might think monogrammed wedding cake toppers would be expensive, since they are a custom designed topper for a cake, the simple truth is it is quite possible to create your own monogrammed cake topper for very little money. Many craft stores carry what you will need to create your own cake topper, including the pattern for the initials. Aside from this, there are numerous paints and glitters, as well as dusts, which work well with your cake design. If you are not sure of your own artistic ability, or you are interested in having someone else do the work, there are many different services on eBay and Etsy, which offer monogrammed toppers for a nominal fee compared to what you would pay in a specialty bridal shop. These toppers can be customized to fit your needs by staying in contact with your artist.

Before you decide on a specific style or font, you should always shop around and see if you could get the design cheaper somewhere else, or perhaps make it yourself. After all, there is nothing as satisfying as having a beautiful wedding cake topper you can say you made yourself.
