How to Custom Your Wedding Cake Toppers to Resemble You

January 26th, 2010

Have you noticed the recently new about Marc Jacobs and Lorenzo Martone? Not to mention the facticity of news, the few snapshots published do revealed a trend about wedding cake toppers- two customized figurines look just like the couple. As snapshots of Marc Jacobs’s ceremony, the customized wedding cake toppers dashed Lorenzo in a tux and Jacobs shirtless, in all his tattooed glory.

Do you want to follow the trend to get a similar cake topper as Marc Jacobs and Lorenzo Martone’s? Oh, wait, buying these kinds of wedding toppers is totally different from other normal ones. Since they are handmade, you must follow a certain rule to get a satisfied one. Here are some tips telling you how to choose.

First, choose a good supplier. You must be aware that these toppers are full handmade. So only skilled supplier can make you cake toppers perfect. But how to judge whether a supplier is good a bad? The answer is checking their service process. Asking whether they provide 2D drafts designing service before they start to sculpt your figurines, whether they send you images to let your proof the likeness and how many modification request can be accepted. All above is good way to figure out a good supplier.

Second, choose a style you love. Usually customized cake topper is pricy. In order to offer different selection for their customers, suppliers often provide two series. One is half premade figurines, another is fully custom ones. Half premade figurines are cheaper, the heads will be sculpted to resemble you, but the bodies are premade, you can’t change them. If you do want to custom bodies, a fully custom cake topper will work for you. You can specify anything and let the artist sculpt for you.

At last, take good photos. Good figurines depend on the photos you provide. The better the photo, the better the likeness will be; after all, you are creating a three dimensional figurine! So check their photo guidelines carefully and do it strictly as supplier required.

Customized wedding cake topper – Be unique

January 25th, 2010

The great day is coming! You are going to be the most beautiful bride in the world. You want a unique wedding that can reflect your personality and feeling? Then you begin to spend lots of time choosing wedding dress, wedding favor, and wedding bouquet. Don’t forget one small but meaningful thing – wedding cake topper! Recently customized cake topper has become more and more popular, little figures of the newlyweds with funny or elegant pose can be a sparkled point at the ceremony and also an adorable keepsake after that. A fantastic wedding topper can be a great talking point, and will remind you of the wonderful occasion every time you see it.

Nowadays, ordering a customized cake topper from Internet has been very popular. There are lots of suppliers offering different kinds of cake toppers such as monogram cake toppers, clay cake toppers and more… Actually there are too many of them that you have to spend hours to choose the right one. Here are some tips on how to choose your customized toppers.

Basic principal, Let the customized wedding toppers match your wedding, your personality or the special thing you want to memorize. And take a look around the market; get a general idea about the existing product. You are going to spend lots of money to custom your own topper; you don’t want it to be similar to the existing product, right? If so, that would be a great waste of money.

Second choosing a material you love. You may wonder why need pay attention to material? Since sometimes styles of cake toppers depend on the material. For example if you want to custom cute animal theme cake toppers, then paper clay or fabric would work perfect on your requirement, other materials such as glass or porcelain might not work that good. Cute and lovely feeling may not be expressed fully by glass or porcelain.

At last, tell the artist or craftsman what you want details, write an instruction for your toppers as detailed as possible. You can even tell them the reason why you want to custom the cake topper, these can help them catch the unique meaning of the cake toppers and often that would be a great help for making the toppers.

this is the inspiration for my cake as a whole….this pic belongs to another bee…i can’t quite remeber her name…i downloaded it so long ago from off the  classifieds.

I have this exact cake topper…i added all the crystals by hand

our cake will look very similar to this one except there will lots of apple red accents…apple red roses on each corner and on top so it looks like the monogram will be sitting on a bed of roses…the crystal cake banding we chose has both clear and black crystals in it…our them is apple red and white with black and white damask….and the crystal banding will be laying on apple red ribbon.

This is my cake topper. It was sooo much work, but I hope the people will go crazy, when they see them!

It’s not finished yet (need to mount the mini-mes on a plate and need to paint the tie of my FI, but I want to wait until I know the definite color)

I love this bird cake! It’s not the correct colors for us….I would change the branches to a softer gold/tans, and the flowers will be lighter pinks.  I also HATE the nest on top!  What do you think of a floral topper?  Or maybe just a big spray of white hydrangeas?  I love the quirkiness of this cake.  Thoughts?

Incredible Sparkling Vintage Wedding Cake Toppers

January 15th, 2010

Vintage wedding cake toppers passed down from parents and redecorate to make a sparkling modern wedding cake toppers.  I found this at Denna’s blog. And quite agree with Denna, yes, this was also my favorite thing of the whole wedding.

Their cake topper was really gorgeous. You might think "holy cow, why did they use that cheesy cake topper?" at the first glance. But when you know the history about the cake topper, you will change your mind. This cake topper has been used in Chris’s family for ages! What a hoot! They paint the hair on the bride and groom to match the real ones! The the most important is that Cousins, aunts and uncles, all sorts of relatives in Jill’s family have had this cake topper. Some have added lace, and beads and such. It’s just SO sweet and warm and well, just so like Chris’s big happy family! She is from a really close family of 8 kids. This cake topper, to me, just really embodied the whole feel of her family.

And for me, I think this is not only a cake topper passed down by his family, but also a kind of special good wishes. I love the feeling so much.
