Monogram Cake Toppers

Every special occasion should be unforgettable, especially if its your wedding. It should be made unforgettable not just for the guests but also for the host. One, definite way of making the event unforgettable is by including in the celebration a beautiful and huge cake.

Generally, not all wedding cakes come with a topper. But the ones that do, they definitely manage to generate a lot of attention and flair. Traditionally the cake toppers would only have a figurine of a bride and a groom. But with times changing, there are many modern forms of cake toppers widely available.

Among the different varieties of cake toppers available today, the most popular one is the monogram cake toppers. These cake toppers generally include the initials of the name of the bride and the groom. The order normally followed is the initial of the first name of the bride, the last name of the groom, followed by the first name of the groom. In the series, the last name of the groom may be of the same size as other initials or it may be bigger in size as compared to others.

In case the bride is interested in keeping her last name, then the last name can be completely removed from the topping. Instead, the first name initials only can be used on the cake with an ampersand sign or a heart in between the initials.
