When planning a wedding one of the most common questions asked by brides and grooms is "How can we make our wedding different?" If you want to make your wedding memorable rather than just like everyone else's wedding, don't worry about trying to outdo someone else or trying to make it different, you just need to personalize it! Most guests won't remember their chicken cordon bleu, but they will remember the personal touches that make your wedding distinct.

The ceremonial cutting of the wedding cake is always a highlight of the reception, and you can make this moment even more special with a personalized wedding cake topper that reflects the bride and groom's personal look and style.

Here are some great ideas for adding a more personal touch to your wedding cake by way of topper:

Tap into your shared interests as a couple:

There are many personalized wedding cake toppers available with themes that can display a common interest that you have as a couple. Some examples of the many themed wedding cake toppers out there include skiing, baseball, football, hockey, fishing, golf, soccer, cell phones and more!

Share how you met:

Many couples have a romantic, silly or fun story of how they met. Maybe you met at a baseball game or at a Western bar? Why not use a baseball themed or western themed wedding cake topper? Did you meet at the beach? Choose a barefoot couple lounging on the sand. There is a wide range of wedding cake toppers that cater to many different scenarios.

Embrace your Heritage:

We're not all blonde haired and blue eyed, so why should your cake topper look that way? Many fashionable and culturally diverse brides and grooms are now available for wedding cake toppers to depict you and your husband or wife exactly the way you want to be portrayed.

Comical or Novelty Wedding Cake Toppers:

Weddings don't have to be totally seriousness. Liven up your wedding cake with a comical cake topper that pokes fun at yourselves. Obsessed with technology? Go with a couple talking on cell phones! Were you dating a long time before the wedding? Choose a funny cake topper with the bride dragging the groom to the altar. Whatever you choose, remember it's all in good fun!

Mix and Match:

Not every couple is exactly alike. Wedding cake toppers sold as a couple generally are not suitable for most couples. With mix and match figurines you customize the look of your wedding cake topper to create a custom pairing that reflects your unique ethnic blend or pairing. Some options for you to create include curvy brides or burly grooms, multi-racial couples or same-sex unions.

Custom figurines:

A new service offered by wedding cake toppers are custom figurines made to look like the couple. Using your "head shots" as references, professional sculptors and artists will create a custom caricature figurine that will feature you and your loved one. Many companies will offer personalized options for hairstyle, eye color, and skin tone.

Non-Traditional:

Traditional cake toppers aren't always suitable for every wedding. Some couples tying the knot choose an expecting bride figurine, and many more brides are opting for non-traditional wedding cake toppers that aren't even people at all. You could use a monogram topper with the first initials of the bride and groom's names, or just one letter for their newly shared last name. Many cake toppers also feature animal couples such as a pair of doves. Or you could go for a modern sculpture to top your cake.

Let them eat cake...or not:

Wedding cake toppers aren't just for cakes. They can go on top of cupcake towers, serve as the perfect decoration for your guestbook table, or make a great wedding gift to the happy couple! Regardless of where your wedding cake topper goes, it will be sure to infuse your special day with distinctive personality, and serve as a wonderful memento of your wedding for many years to come.
