Wedding Cake Toppers!

No wedding blog would be complete without mentioning the obligatory wedding cake topper which comes, nowadays, in many different shapes and styles to suit couples' varying tastes and interests.

Traditional or modern, safe or plain wacky? We opted for the wacky, commissioning the wonderful cake company Spin Spin Sugar to create our rather unusual cake topper: vintage-style Scrabble letters displaying the initials of our first names.


Alli, brilliantly talented cake maker and designer at Spin Spin Sugar, understood our brief precisely and set about making the letters from sugar paste with a wood-effect wash. Alli suggested we place the topper on the middle tier instead of the more usual top, as she felt this would set off the quirkiness of our cake.

Whether you love or hate our cake topper, I hope it's given you some inspiration as to what you might like to adorn your wedding cake. The point is, you don't have to have the usual bride-and-groom figurines. Feel free to be adventurous!
