Cake questions

Emily, on June 30, 2018 at 07:42 Posted in Wedding reception 0 26
Just wondering if a cake topper is absolutely necessary? We are doing a semi naked cake with flowers and not sure I really want to add a topper. Wanted to see what others are doing!

    We aren't even doing cake so I would say a cake topper is not necessary at all.

    I was browsing around for ideas of cake toppers. Then last month I found this personalized cake topper at Etsy. It's pretty expensive cause it's from polymer clay. However, I thought that would be a very nice decoration in our home later for years to come.

    I am not change anything on the bride but the groom will be a little taller with dark brown hair. Both bride and groom are in traditional Chinese wedding attires.

    We were originally going to do a simple cake topper (i don't think its necessary to go elaborate) and we have simple cake (Naked cake with sunflowers) but i decided to surprise him with a cake topper since we are selling everything after the wedding, this can be our souvenir.

    We are doing a small cake, 6" 3 layer cake. We opted for a cute cake topper (Wooden penguins!) I've seen lots of wonderful cakes without cake toppers, but I wanted something fun and very "us" to put on top of our little cake. Smiley smile

    A cake topper is definitely not necessary! We're doing one, but that's only because we fell across one that we really liked. Flowers on a naked cake will look great!

    You definitely don't have to have a cake topper. If you are doing a semi-naked cake with flowers, I would just have flowers on top as well.

    You don't have to have a cake topper. I didn't even have cake at my wedding.

    I think we are going with a boring monogram of our initials! Cake toppers dont aeem to be as common anymore as they used to be! We are having real succulents on ours as decoration, so I dont want to take away from that!

    My fiancé and I chose a semi-custom made one off of Etsy. If you’re unsure just because you can’t find one that suits you I highly recommend checking out Etsy. If not.. well it’s your day and who cares? Do what you want Smiley smile

    You don't need a cake topper! We actually aren't even doing a cake. But I think yours will look really nice with the flowers. If you want something on the top, I think you can just add more of the flowers to the top.

    Not at all necessary.
    A naked cake with flowers sounds lovely.

    We are not using a cake topper! Our cake vendor will be putting sugar flowers at the top and around the cake.

    Cinnabon is a great idea.

    You don't necessarily need a cake topper. I was going to have one originally. But then we decided on mini cakes.

    Go with what you want.

    We have a cake topper but we don’t have flowers on ours. If we did I’d probably choose not to have a topper I don’t like when things are too busy personally

    If you want to have a cake toppet, its special to have fie years down the road. Designs made on the cake add that touch to you as the couple.

    Either way its fine of the decision made at the end of the day.

    Thanks! Yeah we just ordered a small cake for us to cut into and it comes with fresh flowers. Felt like that was enough. We’re doing Cinnabon’s as our main dessert.

    I have a cake topper and it says forever on it. I wanted something simple. I bought some fake succulents to put on their as well. But for myself it doesn’t really matter if everything doesn’t make it on top.

    I am hoping to get a special design on my cake that represents my indigenous culture of the west coast. I will more than likely not be getting a cake topper as it would block the design.

    Not necessary at all! Lots of people don’t use them. If we were going to have a cake, I wasn’t going to use one. I like the look of cakes with flowers. Toppers are just a personal preference Smiley smile
