subject: Hot Wedding Cake Topper Trends for 2010 [print this page] The hottest wedding trends for 2010 encourage the celebration of a couple's unique sense of style, and the wedding cake is no exception. The cake has long been a staple at almost every wedding, one which requires a decision making process. It involves tastings, design consultation, and when the big day comes it even gets its own table. Whether opting for a cupcake tower, a few classic round tiers, or a Cake Boss creation, brides and grooms can finish it off with a topperas distinctive as they themselves are. Popular choices have steered away from the traditional and moved towards fun, romantic, unusual and hobby-inspired ways to express your personalities. An entire segment of the wedding day is centered around the cutting of the cake, so why not have fun and top it with something that's sure to be noticed? Here are some of the top topper trends for this year:
Humorous/Funny
The options are aplenty if you and your fianc share a quirky sense of humor. There are toppers featuring the bride carrying the groom, a couple sharing a little "Love Pinch" from behind, a "Couch Potato" groom with his "Exasperated" bride, a couple in a "Race to the Altar", a Princess Bride kissing her Frog Prince Groomthe opportunities are endless and will certainly be received with chuckles and grins!
Romantic
Your wedding day is all about showing your love, and a cake topper can show it too. There are romantic figurines available today which are far from the cookie cutter toppers of the past. A couple shares a kiss beneath an umbrella in "Showered with Love". "Picture Perfect" features a groom kissing his bride behind a photo frame. One of our favorites, "True Romance" represents a classy couple in a charming embrace. Whether you want understated and elegant or sexy and passionate, a romantic topper can enhance the emotion of the day.
Monogram
One of the hottest trends this year is to top your cake with a monogram. Use one initial to represent your newly shared last name or a combination of three letters. Choose from simple, brushed silver styles or bring the bling with letters covered completely in Swarovski crystals. The monogram is a great way to emphasize your union and is a popular choice for colorful cakes.
Sports/Hobbies
Couples who share a passion for a sport or hobby will love the options available to them. Baseball fans may delight in a topper featuring a groom getting ready to pitch a baseball to his ready-to-bat bride. Football fans may enjoy the "Playful Football" couple. There are figurines representing rugby, hockey, soccer, golf, and skiing. If you love to ride motorcycles then "Motorcycle Get-Away"is a pretty cool choice. Displaying the things you have in common is a wonderful and interesting way to top your cake, and often becomes a conversation piece amongst guests.
With such a wide variety of great options many couples are finding themselves torn between several toppers. Perhaps this is why these charming figurineshave begun to make appearances at places other than just the cake. They're popping up at guest book tables, gift tables, bars/refreshment stands and in coordination with centerpieces. Another trend that's becoming increasingly popular is the use of both bride's and groom's cakes. While you want to share your lives together your taste for cake may be different, so why compromise? Have two!
No matter your style, wedding theme or hobby, a cake topper is a great way to demonstrate your uniqueness as a couple. Not only will it earn attention on your special day, but it's a keepsake that can be enjoyed long thereafter!
