Monogram Wedding Toppers
Sometimes to the groom, the amount of care and thought that goes into the wedding cake seems excessive. But that wedding is a once in a lifetime event and for the bride, she may have been dreaming of what her wedding cake would look like since she was a little girl. Everything at a wedding has ceremonial function. Even something as simple as a wedding cake is important even though on the surface it is just a treat to serve guests after the wedding. There are layers of meaning and memory that will become attached to that cake. That is why so much work and thought and expense is put into making it special.
These are all good reasons to do all you can to make the wedding cake something that is about the couple being wed and to avoid a generic cake that doesn’t connect to how special this bride and this groom are. You would not have a cake with the message in icing that says, "Congratulations you two." You would have the names of the bride and groom added to make the cake unique. So that is a good reason to take the act of customizing a cake to the next level and steer clear of boring toppings that crown the cake. Using a wedding topper that is built around a very special monogram that celebrates the union of bride and groom are just the right touch.
There are many designs to wedding toppers that use the monogram to dress up a cake that can turn a cake into a trophy that will draw dozens of photographs. The monogram can be a wonderful and very simple expression of the union that is being celebrated by simply using the single first letter of the last name that the happy couple now share. That single letter symbolizes that the two lives are now one life in an elegant and meaningful way that is just as powerful as the unity candle or even the rings exchanged at the alter. It will be a memory that bride and groom and the families of both will remember for the rest of their lives.
Other options for how to use monograms to top a beautiful wedding cake is to use the first letters of the bride and groom and then the first letter of their new shared last name. The artist who makes the wedding cake can recommend lots of ways to present a very elegant monogram topping. An elevated monogram can be made with cake and then decorated with frosting that stands out against the cake beneath it. Or the standard bride and groom figurines can be replaced with a towering monogram that can be seen by every one when they enter the reception hall. Whatever you chose is sure to make that cake special and meaningful to the couple and something they will treasure in their wedding pictures forever.
